Maybe I misread something but you are shifting the blame to Stevens without letting us know the reason you were terminated........I have learned from experience that some companies out there wont run any of the backgrounds on you until they have a reason too....A friend of mine worked for Knight and they hired him on fine knowing he had 2 incidents on his record but hired him anyway and left him alone till he wanted to go OTR and not regional like they wanted and then his pay stopped and he was still expected to run and then he was given bogus directions that ran him into a residential neighborhood he had to get out of but bent up the fender in the process so all of a sudden they claim they investigated his DAC and found he had 2 incidents and now he was a safety violation to continue working but he wasnt a safety violation to hire, just goes to show you these people will take as many as they can and stuff them into the trucks and then if they have any issues then they will fire them but until they do its all good. Just remember if you get terminated you can forget ever working in the industry again cause most larger companies wont take someone who was fired from their last trucking job and you have to do at least 6 months without getting fired at another trucking company before they will consider you but if you cannot work because of getting fired for stupid things then how will you get that 6 mnths just shows how stupid trucking can be
