Unruly Passengers in Trucking

UNRULY PASSENGERS IN TRUCKING

UNRULY PASSENGERS IN TRUCKING. Recently there was a trucking company trying to hire a driver in Illinois. Turns out the truck driver had a passenger that traveled with him. It was his wife. Let’s call her Sarah. Now Sarah was a little on the “demanding side” and she was not shy about what she wanted. Let’s call her husband “Bill”.

Bill was applying to a trucking company in Oklahoma. Bill had several yeas of experience with a clean record and for the most part on normal conditions, would be a great hire for any trucking company.

Sarah had instructed Bill to make a few requests to his potential employer concerning her needs. One of those requests was a smoke free truck. The reason for this was, she is highly allergic to cigarette smoke. The company could not guarantee that one of their truck were smoke free being most truckers smoke.

These requests and negotiations went on for several days before they were told that most likely they might not be able to accommodate Sarah and Bill.

Sarah was getting tired and annoyed with her husbands recruiter and asked to speak with his boss. When she was able to reach the recruiters boss she was told that they did not think the oosition was going to be a good fit for them. This of course enraged Sarah whom made a few statement to the director. This ended with a few words from both parties and a strong good bye.

The end result was, Sarah was not welcome to come as a passenger. If this sounds like someone that travels with you, they could be hurting your career as well as their own.
