Willas Shaw Express black balling dirt bags mistreats and abuses young trucker, Internet

I drove a truck for Willis Shaw for 10 months. I turned over a trailor and I was fired at the end of March.

Since then I have applied for numerous jobs, both driving and non driving and no one will hire me and they refuse to tell me why.

Before I started driving I never had any trouble getting a job. A couple of companys I worked for before I started driving for Willis Shaw told me that if ever I wanted to come back to come on back because I was a good worker. But now they won't even talk to me.

I have been out of a job since the end of since the end of March and I have three kids to support. My mother and my stepdad had to get a loan because I was unable to pay my child support due to not being able to get a job.

I believe that I am being blackballed by Willis Shaw but I do not know why. I did make an error in judgement when I tipped over the trailor. I turned to short. It was a sealed load and it was very top heavy. The load was apples.

If it is Willis Shaw's policy to fire someone for making a mistake that's okay I can accept that, but they do not have the right to prevent me from getting another job.

Why do I think they are blackballing me? I was accepted for orientation by one trucking company and as I was on the way out the door they called and said not to come. One trucking company had me go all the way trhew orientation then said they couldn't hire me. One trucking company got really nasty with me and told me after what I did I would never drive a truck again. What they all had in common was: after they talked to the head of safety at Willis Shaw none would hire me.

What did I do that was so bad? I can't find out. I tried to talk to the people at Willis Shaw but they won't talk to me. I do not know what they are saying about me. What I do know is only one of my loads was late, when they called on my off time at home because they had a load that needed to be picked up I never refused them, I cut my off time short and went and picked up the load and I stayed out for as long as two months before I took any off time.

You can talk to my fleet manager Don Banta and he will tell you I was a good driver. The only ticket I have on my MVR is one before I got my CDL. I have only had the one accident. I sure would appreciate any help you can give me because I need a job and I would love to be able to go back to driving a rig.

Thank You
