Covenant Transport Ex Driver Screwed over by Covenant Chattanooga, Tennessee

Ok, So i was a driver for Covenant Transport for about a year after getting done with Werner and Cr England.

I was told by dispatch and by that guy they call "Kujo" to sit and wait at the wounderfull hole in the wall, roach and bug infested, prison like Covenant Motel untill my truck was ready.

Witch i did and i was at the terminal everyday and everyone saw me there (My logs show that) and I waited a good month or so at that s**thole and so, i started getting fed up with it cause they refused to pay me layover pay (witch i was entitled to receive) so, I went to ask them what was going on and when my truck would be ready.

So, they informed me that i had quit when in fact i havent quit and i was at the motel and terminal everyday asking and demanding to know what the deal was cause i ready to get back out on the road.

How a company can tell an employee that they quit is beyond me, Especially when the employee did not quit at all and was doing what they where informed to do and keeping in contact on a daily basis.

So, after that i went up to the "executive level" as they call it and tried to get to the bottom of what was going on and come to find out that i set the quitting thing strait and infact proved to them that i indeed did not quit and then what happened? They fired me and refused to pay me any of the layover pay owed to me and refused to pay unemployment and tried charging me for the stay at the motel.

So,if anyone has half a brain they would not work for Covenant Transport....
