In 2008 I worked for PTL as a female (black) student. I was teamed up with another white male as my co-driver. My co-driver would touch me inappriopriately, I would be asleep on the bottom bunk wake up and find him staring at me, when we were at truck stops he would grope my butt, I even found a letter written by him about me fantizing about me. I reported this incident to PTL, they kept promising me they were going to get me out of the truck with my co-driver that they would route us back to the terminal and team me up with another co-driver.
This took place of a period of 3 to 4 days of promises to help me. Well guess what my boyfriend had to call the police to help me. I was taken to a homeless shelter for the night had the police to contact PTL to let them know what had just taken place and to let them know where I was staying for the night. I also called them myself that night to let them (PTL) know I was at the homeless shelter. Well I never heard a word of response from them. Never got a hotel voucher, never got routed back to the terminal. I had to get a bus ticket home from which was purchased by a family member.
