Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My name is [xxx]and i am a driver for arnold transportation. on 12/21/2005, at approx. 1500 hrs, i attempted to quit arnolds trucking because the company constantly put me in positions whereas i have to run illegally to make some of my deliveries on time. when i compliant about it, i am harassed, required to have my log book inspected and beeped during my 10 hour break. i was also told to log loading time as off duty so that it doesn't affect my 7 day hos. when i refused to run outside of dot regulations and tried to quit, i was told that i had two options and those options were "work or be terminated", i was never told what i would be terminated for, nor did i ask. when i tried to quit, i was in camp hill, pa, 700 miles from home. they offer me a bus ticket and i told them i had to much equipment in the truck and it could not be secured on a bus. i ask that i be routed home and i was willing to pick up a load that was going to atlanta. i don't know what to do, but i am being forced to work or be terminated and they know i will not risk being terminated because it would make it difficult to get another job. they won't even allow me to go thru atlanta to check my mail. they did say they would allow me some home time at the end of the month, but i want out now. in some cases i have run as much as 98 hours in 7 days, i log in my log book, but they just continue to run me and i don't want to do it any longer and as i said earlier, i really don't know what to do. *jb information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr |
