Fired for accident; could I be rehired in another state?

[upschuck]

You might be able to come back as a preloader....but you'll never be hired back as a driver.

Problem with that, is he could work his way back to driver, eventually. I doubt he'd be hired back, unless someone goofed up.

When you rehired....you get the same EIN you originally had. Someone would catch on in HR.

I hate when that happens.

Too bad we didn't know beforehand that we were going to get fired, that way we could really do some major damage!

Never let management take the keys...

If he were to be hired back to work on the inside there would be an additional document in which he agreed that he would not be allowed to become a driver.

One of my drivers just yesterday ran into a fire hydrant... He's got the heaviest car on my pull too I came in this morning expected to load 500 pieces on a tiny car. Sorry man but that was packed tight lmao

With everything computerized, they will know about your past no matter where you go.

I'm still wondering why he got fired in the first place. The OPs story is incomplete.

Did not clear the intersection.

Union isn't strong everywhere. Some places it is a lot easier to get fired than others.

I've never seen someone fired for an accident. Even for tier 3's. Isn't an accident just that, an accident? If I knew I could lose my house and everything else because of being human, I would've found a different line of work.

Based on your story, you hit a car. It's a tier 3 but doesn't sound like any injuries and no loss of life.
Sounds like a day off at most to me.

You really are new.

 

[JL 0513]

You really are new.

Yup, 9 year rookie. How many people have you seen lose their livelihood to an accident?

 

[JL 0513]

Did not clear the intersection.

His description of the accident is very unclear. Did he run the stop sign? He said the car was in his blind spot which would be to his rear, not a cross traffic T-bone. Too bad the OP doesn't want to explain.

Too quick of a look, a car can get hidden by the mirror, which is the way I took it.

I still see no justification of permanent termination. Wouldn't be in my local. I've heard of many tier 3 intersection accidents, drivers fault. No termination.

Agreed. There must be more to the story. A tier 3 is frequently termination but you get your job back (sometimes with loss of pay). I have never heard of a permanent termination without other reasons.

Was he in his qualifying period?Your right, there are a few details that would clear this up for you. Don't hold your our breath though.

 

[upschuck]

Maybe not his first in short period of time

As a matter of fact, several over the years.

Car was entering the intersection on his right hand side. OP had stopped but did not see the car and T-boned him.

Maybe his local was too busy bickering on brow cafe about which party/side is more corrupt, or how part timers pay should start at 5.50hr plus 1 gatoraid and cliff bar and didn't have time to properly defend our brother?
