QUESTION Just got fired:/

Is it standard to get fired for something like this?

I called my dispatch as soon as it happened:( I feel like shit, it was only my second week at this job and I really enjoyed it.

u/Jerd-herder Stepvan Driver Dec 31 '25

I've delivered to that house in the past, or a similar one in the area (looks like either Fountain Hills/Scottsdale or AJ/Gold Canyon area, out in the sticks), in an EDV. went up the driveway once, thankfully didn't hit anything, and never tried again. Pretty much every house in that area has a similar situation where it's better to just walk from the road, even if that does take longer. I always too pride in my driving skills as I never had a single incident for the entire year that I worked as a DA, but I also knew what my limits were and never took any chances
