I would call them back and finish up your time there. Then go to work for "Cheers Trucking". Chaulk it up to a learning experience. The phone lines, computers could have been down, mechanic went home sick and on and on and on.... So when you feel like a number just turn the page and crank up some good old rock n roll. That's my motto. BOL.

Do you best to get back to Werner.
You do have to "request" time off. While you are performing your job well , give your dispatcher the date & loction you prefer. I once got "stuck"in the NE sector for over five weeks "hoping" for time off... :cry:

dtryanxpress....Im a Werner driver. Im jumping on the BigWheels band wagon here and suggest you follow his advise. Also you got a call from Werner....call them back, find out why they called you. If they want you back, go.
Now for future use and knowledge....: Youve been through orientation and training, you should know the proper procedures to follow with Werner. IE, instead of just turning your truck in and walking, you have available to you 30days PTO that you could have used, as you know this basically reserves your employment with Werner. If they do not hear from you by the 30day point, then, they assume you quit. When dealing with Road breakdown. You should never call them, unless you are without qualcomm. They are very overwelmed with calls and the delay time on the phone can be very long. (Yes, they need better staffing...but this is what we have at this time). Werner has the macros established in the qualcomm for communicating with Road breakdown for the needs of the tractor and trailer while on the road. |
