Need to vent

1702069

{"text":"Wow,\nWhat a stressful day it seemed I was getting nowhere  today, my company doesn't hold drivers accountable for leaving mt's at a drop yard with no BOL. I am beyond frustrated at this situation I had to drive around Portland Oregon most of my day looking for  an MT, and my company has also taken away personal conveyance so if I am stuck in an accident and I am getting close to my clock running out they won't give my PC to a safe harbor anymore. Now I shut down 3 hours before my shift is up which is so unacceptable does anyone else go through this also?","videos":"[]","link":"{}","pics":"[]","canComment":true,"externalShare":false}
