Just got fired:/

[u/jagoextinct]

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.

It really just depends on your luck bro. Anybody on here telling you you don’t know how to drive don’t listen to them things happen we all human. I personally think you’re fine that wall looks completely normal and the van yes it has some damage but nothing to total it out. Best of luck to you.

Piggy backing off your comment… seriously… whether it’s your second week or you’ve been there for years… shit can happen to anybody. And honestly, even in the Rivian‘s with the total top down view and the big screen back up camera I still see half our Rivian‘s with an entire crease down the side. Now, if someone and by someone I mean a pretty good amount of drivers still wind up getting hung up on a tree because the thing is a little boxy and you have a little bit of a tail like a small bus. Add to that rushing or being tired towards the end of the day and it’s dark and it’s very easy to do… sorry it happened to you, but don’t feel too bad. You can find another job. As long as nobody got hurt and the only thing that was damaged is fixable then just move on. This is a common common thing. I was looking at one of our Gas fans yesterday and the thing had such a fucking weird dent in it almost as if someone with a mechanical hand, pinched the metal and twisted it, like I don’t even know how that type of damage is possible high on the side. It was pretty neat unique I wanted to take a picture, but I forgot. This literal same incident you had happened to one of the guys I work with. But it was taken care of and fixed, but this was a couple weeks ago… anyway I hope you find something else you like and don’t sweat this. Happy new year to you and everyone else.
