Left me and my dog stranded in georgia

I went to work with usx on the condition of no overnight driving, my eyes can't do it anymore. I had a good talk with recruiter, diana villinova about this and she said ok. I have had 2 dispatchers jason and shelley simmons, whho also agreed to this. -we were in tunnel hill, ga to fuel and i had to have a drive tire replaced the night before. Rocky in the shop said the trlr tire tht it was replaced with had to come off. Told shelley and she went to her supervisor abt it. -her boss a.J. Said if it wasn't d.O.T., then no it could, 't be done-but the shop overuled on this-thy then pulled me off the load and put me on another one when i was finiished with the shop.

It was an overnight load-i walked in looking for shelley and was told by drvr liason tht we were gng to have a conference. I said fine. Thy wouldn't let me even go to shelley to talk abt it-i looked at the fleet mgrs and asked which one is shelley and drvr liasan told me"we're not gng to tell u"-a.J. Came in to the conference room and told me that i should have gotten it in writing. -i told him with my years of experience i've never had a problem before and word was good enough for me.

He brought in one other man and got human resources on the phone, her name is kelly. I was told that their company policy is hat you have to be available 24 hrs a day. Didn't matter what the agreement was and she would talk to them abt this. They then proceeded to tell me i no longer had a job if i couldn't drive overnight. I asked them if i was fired and also asked them to take the truck to my home terminal of okc, ok. They wouldn' let me do it, would not even let me take the truck to a hotel to clean it out-a.J. Tht the trk does not leave the yard-so i packed it up and had to have the shuttle take me, my dog and all our things to a hotel. I called pat who is a friend of mine of 25 years and he had to come all the way from salt lake city, utah to pick us up.

Since then according to kelly in human resources they are calling it a voluntary quit. Thy pulled the same thing on my friend pat over 10 years ago. I have a excellent reputation for ontime freight, no accidents. I have since filed for unemployment and so far no luck on jobs.
