It Just Keeps Getting Better

I asked about the missing paycheck from FOUR WEEKS AGO (allegedly lost in the mail like several others) and Korena called to tell me how sick she was of MY bullshit and tell me that her sister Kate had at long last deigned to mail that one along with my current one last friday, now that I'm almost broke again.

I won't see any of that til next week.  I'll have to put Sprint off again and renegotiate with the bill collectors again because I can't even afford that 100.00 payment.  I also owe (long story but I got screwed) another 425.00 on an air-gun I ran over (after being told I was clear to pull out goddammit) so I gotta put them off too.

If you owed somebody money, and they were in deep shit, wouldn't you have rectified this a week or so ago?

And Kate lives in Lancaster PA.  She's SURROUNDED by branches of my bank!  She probably drives farther to the grocery store!  And SHE nixed direct deposit!!!

Anyway now (for some strange reason) she emails me that "trucks will be home in Delaware Thanksgiving week".

Industry standard: Over the road truckers are ALL allotted "home time", which accrues at 1 day/week.  Most otr truckers get home every 2-3 weeks.

I NEVER asked for home time.  I went TEN MONTHS before I last picked up my mail.

...Do you get this?  Can you see how irrational, cruel, immature, shallow, sadistic, and EVIL these people are?

I have my faults, but do I deserve this?  Would you PAY to torture me (or "put me in my place" or whatever)?

I was tempted to kill myself as soon as I read that email.  Korena is stamping her foot (on my head) and having another temper-tantrum.  She'll show me who's boss!

Again.  Because I asked for a 4-week old check.  Because I (see last post).  Because she's a Jerry Springer fan and loves dramatic shouting matches and lacks empathy, compassion, or a soul...

God help me.

I’m Done. Well it’s Getting Closer.

"YOU'RE DONE!"

Maybe I am.  After again being shut down for the weekend (I couldn't refuel til sunday...as of THURSDAY), Kate assigns me a load to pick up in NJ today (friday) and deliver 890 miles away near Chicago at 0800 monday.

I was already out of fuel, despite being generously allowed up to 50.00 worth emergency fuel on THURSDAY, after my agonizing delivery on the outskirts of Philly.

I had been working on a hyper-diplomatic way to get it through to Kate and Korena that they (not Falcon Transport--who they blame for this insane and unprecedented fuel restriction) have cost themselves a load per week and a net weekly profit over that last fuel purchase and my pay.

(You get it, right? It's not just over any 2-week period, but WEEKLY).

Meanwhile, Kate announced to me that my latest check had been mailed.  No mention of the check from 3 weeks ago which, like HALF of my paychecks, have been lost in the mail.

No response yet.  I'm guessing they hope I'll give up on it.

Anyhow, today I got this latest of many illegal load assignments and called Korena to object.

Long story short she called me a whiney bitch, said she was sick of my blahblah again, and said it was only merely 770 miles so (actually it was 890.  I corrected her and there's a whole NEW screaming match--she won't accept the truth.)

Ah crap it's deep for you guys, but not for any OTR trucker, load coordinator, or dispatcher (so ask them):

Korena is at least as deceptive as Hillary Clinton.  She has zero honor.  She is irrational and governed by her emotions.  She has never admitted that she was wrong about anything, or apologized to me.

Anyhoo, she and her sister also think I'm an idiot, because (my bad) to avoid their Jerry Springer show crap I pretended to believe that it was Falcon Transport and not them who decided to shut me down (for 2-3 days) every weekend with rediculous "you can't fuel until sunday" restrictions.

That's correct:  I could easily have run this load and watched the Browns game too on planet Earth.  Had I been allowed to top off on thursday THURSDAY mind you no sweat, and she would have got that settlement monday and netted more money but noooo!

It's obviously Korena.  OCD is only one of several of her disorders.  She can't STAND that I might spend 600 or so bucks on fuel near the end of a pay period...

I get it, but can't...she's insane, ok?  No that's not an expression.  Korena is literally insane, ok?

I defended myself and sent her the Googlemaps route which matched her own (888 miles) and asked her how tf I was to do that legally without fueling til sunday...

As it is, I know she'll (someday, eventually) short me 100 miles on this (eventual late) paycheck, but more immediately called ME a lunatic!!!

Guys, I can't take this shit.

They cancelled direct deposit so they could pay me late (or never) and blame the Postal Service for losing HALF my paychecks, and as we speak they're hoping I'll get tired of asking about the most recent missing one.

If I kill myself get what I owe you out of Korena, Ed.  

...I know I know, you're like me, and I heard you.  It's up to you, but consult an attorney before you write this off.  

She screwed me over.  She tortured me.  She ripped me off.  She ruined my life (see how she handled my tax situation: Took all my receipts to the IRS, committed me to paying off that preposterous charge at 250.00/ week for the rest of my life, telling me the 250/week payments were for bookkeeping (instead of payments to the IRS goddammit).

This soulless inhuman monster exploited me ruthlessly.  This is not hyperbole.  Any serious investigation will turn up other victims, and...

It’s up to you Ed, because right now it’s not if, but when, I kill myself.  

I'm a lunatic...wowzers!
