My husband was employed for Fischer Bros. For a number of months. Was told that he was a good employee, giving a new truck, etc. With no warning when he came in for a truck inspection Fischer Bros. Reduced the speed on his truck and others without any kind of notice. When my husband first went to work for this company they told him the speed of the trucks and that it wouldn't change.
But shortly after this speed change my husband was offered a driving job closer to home. He told the appropriate people at the company. They told him at that time that there was no hard feelings and he was a good driver and he could come back to work at anytime, no problem.
When I call about him wanting to come back to work there they told me that there wouldn't be any problem that they would run it by their people and get back to me on when he could restart. I called a few days later and found out that they had fixed it so that he would never be able to work there again.
When he tried to apply to another company, that company turned him down. I asked them what the problem was. The recruiter told me that Fischer told her that he left because of the speed change and that wasn't it at all and Fischer Bros. Knew this.
What they are doing is lying to prospective employers and keeping drivers that worked for them from getting jobs. We are afraid to put their name on applications because of what they might say.
Well that is about it. Previous drivers beware of how Fischer Bros. Handles previous drivers.
