Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
I worked for Interstate transport for 4 months. at the very beginning of November 2006 I called my dispatcher and told him that if he didnt give me more miles I was going to have to find another job and i would not be back after the first of the year. this was after I have been recieving 200.00 and 300.00 dollar checks. well they gave me 2 good runs and thought that was all they had to do.

so when christmas vacation came i went home and started looking for a new job and when the first of the year came I did not go back just like I had told them I would then I find out from another job I had tried to get that they had put on Dac Report that they had discharged me which I do not know how they could discharge me when I had already quit I really need to hear from a lawyer if there is anyway I can get them to remove this from my Dac Report

Then I went to Us Express in Dayton, Ohio to the oreintation because when I spoke to the recruiter he said all these great things. so I figured I would go and see if it was true. I was there for 1 day and found out all kinds of things that the recruiter had never mentioned to me. had he I would never have even gone to the oreintation. So the next morning after getting some rest I left then I put in an app. at a very good company that would have paid me excellent money. that Us Express had put on my Dac report that they had Discharged me and I want to know how they could have discharged me when I never worked for them. they never gave me an employee number. they hadnt even cleared my drug test that I know of. so how could I be employed by them. between them and Interstate I have been turned down for 2 excellent jobs with excellent pay.

I really need some help with this problem. I havent even been driving 2 yrs yet and already I am being banned from great jobs because someone got mad because I did not want to work for them with 200.oo / 300.00 dollar checks and another got mad because they are dishonest about what they have to offer. so I did not want to work for them. either someone really needs to get a hand on who is able to put things on your Dac Reports. this should only be done by a third party that has no interest in the matter not someone who thinks this is a good way to get even. this is our lives these people are messing with and someone needs to get a handle on it

Cindy is it Interstate Distrbution or is it Interstate transport? your report used both names but thy are not the some company by what you said Interstate Distrbution did fire you. this is how, you told then in November that you would qiut if your miles didn't go up, but your report didn't say that you told them when you went home for christmas that you would not be back so when you didn't come back thy fired you. as to U S xpress 1st just as a point it is not in Dayton, Oh. it's in Medway, Oh. now again your report doesn't say you told them you quit. just said you left, did you tell anyone.? you took the bus ticket, you eat the food, thy put you up for the nite and you signed papers when you went to oreintation. one said that you would be paid after oreintation for oreintation (sounds like an employee to me) and also that if for any reason you didn't finish oreintation or fail the drug test that you would have to pay for the drug test (did you) by what you say you just walk out and THY should know you quit well if you don't tell then you quit than way can't thy say thy fired you. as a side note you realy should have put in two reports not lump them in togther. now as to the DAC do you have a copy.? you can get one for free as you were not given a job because of what is on it. after you have that you can see about getting things fixed on it.

How to deal with DAC

First things first. You said that you went to orientation at USX. If you submitted to a urinalyssis, you will be considered an employee, and they will report you as such. Stupid, I agree, but they make the rules. Not us drivers. Get a copy of your report by calling 1-800-345-0645. Here is the link to their website http://www.usis.com/commercialservices/transportation/default.htmWell, call and they will tell you what to do to get it. Be prepared to send a copy of your license and SS card with a brief note. You are entitled to a free report, if either you were turned down for employment, or if you are looking for a job within 60 days. Once you receive it, dispute the items in question. At least add a brief statement about USX. Such as, left during orientation. Because of the DAC ripoff it is vitally important to research a future company before comitting to them. It just makes you look kind of bad to "job hop" when all you really did, was walk away from a crappy job before starting it. Depending on what they put on your DAC, you may want to contact OOIDA. Good luck
