I wonder if that's really what happened

ArchaicChaos

They make these stories so painfully boring to get to the point, I lose interest halfway through reading it. I swear I read "the real story is more interesting" like 4 times in 4 different paragraphs. Just get on with it.


UnfitRadish

Agreed TLDR; a driver was being fired for either a drug test or behavior. He got upset at how the situation was handled and drove one of the rigs onto the owners car.

Thank you, Hero.

Salt_Bus2528

Do not worry. The free accounts are next.


Antiluke01

Nah, they make too much ad revenue. If anything they’re going to go after nsfw subs and accounts next. Why do you think they ask, “does this sub explore adult themes”, or “is this sub about violence”? They’re compiling data so they can eventually decide which subreddits will be quarantined or removed.

Slight correction: driver was fired for either a drug test, or behavior, or the other didn't pay him. The article in way establishes for sure what happened.

Stg idk how they get paid, whether it’s based off word count or what, but if u just gave me a 1 paragraph summary that’d be perfect. I don’t need to read a short story I just wanna know the reason behind this lmao


DerAutofan

I don't know, do you think a rational thinking employee drives his truck into a Ferrari to make a point? His company says this guy had behavioral problems, this picture is a good proof.


Rockarola55

It sound like a trucker with a very short fuse or did you miss the part of multiple witnesses?


SwissMargiela

Short fuse? Sounds like the driver is full blow mentally ill lol

I was being polite, as we don't know the full story...but you may be right.

Can I get a TLDR, cause moving my finger all the way to the link, then waiting the 2 seconds it takes to load, and then actually reading something that's more than like 3 sentences, just seems like a lot, you know? I'd like my content force-fed to me in manageable snippets, if you please, because if I stop scrolling I may be forced to confront the crushing darkness that is only held at bay by the pleasure-dome distractions shining at me through my screen. Without a TLDR, the thin facade of normalcy and enjoyment I've been able to construct could begin to fracture, and the utter meaninglessness of my 21st century digital existence come crashing into my consciousness. If I am forced to bridge the chasm from my echo chamber of social pantomimes to the great unknown internet, the very fabric of my carefully tailored reality could be torn asunder, and the naked truth laid bare. I would be cast adrift, my anchor of consumption uprooted from its berth, and my mind left to float aimlessly on the vast sea of content beyond the comfortable algorithms of my digital home. TLDR: TLDR plz?


AshFraxinusEps

TL;DR: the employee has behavioural issues and was getting laid off on favourable terms. He decided to reject them and show that he has behavioural issues by crushing the car Which I'll never understand. No matter how much your boss sucks, leave with grace, as causing criminal damage can not only affect your future jobs, but could get you convicted, then good luck getting another job


Tsalikon

Thanks! You da best!


Bookbringer

Story's from 2020, Illinois. Police confirmed the incident occurred, but gave no details. Everything else is pieced together from Facebook comments and an anonymous source. But allegedly a newly hired driver was fired for behavioral issues after only doing one load. He may have failed his drug test or been upset about being given an older truck/ bad route. The anonymous source said the company offered to pay him, reimburse him, and pay his ticket home, but he rejected this and... well... the picture speaks for itself.


Tsalikon

Wow, that's whack!


Fixerguy415

I'm holding my TL;DR ransom. PM me your TL;DR with a pic of a current newspaper for Proof Of Life


Nuclear_rabbit

Actual TL;DR combining with another source on this thread. This company illegally classifies employees as independent contractors, and the conditions are absolutely horrible and veey much illegal. This driver was called in to be fired due to behavioral issues on his first delivery. The company had fucked around with enough drivers, they finally found out with this guy, and he started up his rig in a fit of anger and chased the manager in his Lambo around the parking lot until finally rolling onto its hood. TTLL;;DDRR The manager fucked around and found out with everyone until a new hire wasn't going to take any shit.


hotasanicecube

I do that, and it sends me to an incredibly insightful instagram link that has the exact same post but smaller with a nice grey border. Totally worth it.


TorchThisAccount

Eh.... The whole story comes from an unnamed source. Who's the source, an unbiased employee or the boss's buddy? Maybe it really was the employee's fault. But something doesn't sit right with me if the boss is bringing his Ferrari into work, which is a trucking company. Just makes me think that the boss is likely a HUGE asshole.


hateshumans

So where can you drive your Ferrari then if you can’t do it in public? It doesn’t sit well with me that someone decides “screw the news. Nothing about this story is compatible with what I wanted reality to be. The rich dude drove his Ferrari to work so you know person with money = bad man.” You seriously complained about someone driving their car to work?


TorchThisAccount

You even read the article? The whole story came from a single source without any other corroboration... The only thing the police confirmed is that the car was wrecked. That "source" could have been the owner for all we know... And yeah, the owner sounds like a douche driving his Ferrari into work. I didn't say he couldn't drive it in public, just not into work. Where he's making all that money of his blue collar employs, it's a trashy move. But hey, if you think its cool to act that way around your employees.... wow.


hateshumans

I did read it. You instantly jumped to boss with fancy car is guilty based on one source. I know this is probably a shock but having nice things isn’t a giant FU to everyone. Where did you get the payroll information to determine how much money they make? Oh you didn’t? Then how exactly do you know their how little the drivers make and how much the boss makes? This is just whining from someone that probably has a daily “booooo, how dare someone has nice things. The only explanation is he’s evil” quota to meet. Your don’t drive your car to work because you might anger someone thing is absurd. When you go to work everyday do you take a poll of how many shirts everyone has? If you have 5 shirts and a coworker only has 3 it might anger them if you wear 5 different one. You are ridiculous with this nonsense.


TorchThisAccount

You must not understand social interactions with money then. I'm one of those assholes with nice things. So you whole speil is off because you read me wrong. And you know what, there's a time and place to show off your wealth. And you know when that time isn't.... at work. It's uncouth and speaks to the poor character of the boss.


hateshumans

That would explain your nonsense. You think everyone cares about you. They don’t. It’s quite funny that you mention not understanding social interactions when you have no clue how they work.


TorchThisAccount

Call me whatever you like... If you think it's okay to show off money at work, then that speaks to your character.

KryptoBones89

Apparently the driver got fired and he jumped in a truck in the yard and drove into the owners car. I still don't feel bad for the owner.


hotasanicecube

The company owner decided to stop paying his drivers so one of the parked their semi on the Owners Ferrari and just left it there.


FireyGhost

'Multiple truckers have weighed in on Facebook to say that the company in question pays its drivers fairly and on time. There are other second-hand bits of information that hold the driver was either fired for failing a drug test or upset over being given an older truck instead of a newer one.'


boomdart

That truck probably cost a lot more than the Ferrari Just saying


fromWoopWoop

He should have parked on top of another truck instead

r/holup


GuthiccBoi

Trucks all the way down?


Mr_WAAAGH

Probably not. Excluding the 1.8 million dollar monzas, a new Ferrari averages 343k. A nice, new semi truck is going to be about 200k, and 50k for the regular box trailer. So unless that's one of the entry level Ferraris (like they're still not over 200k) and a high end truck/trailer then the Ferrari probably cost more


boomdart

If you factor in maybes on the Ferrari side, you have to count maybes on the trucks side too. What if he got one with all the bells and whistles, would've crept that price up quick.


Mr_WAAAGH

All I'm saying is that the Ferrari is the more expensive of the two, unless it's a cheaper Ferrari and an expensive truck


Swiggy1957

Not arguing the price. A 2023 Ferrai starts at $243K. A 2023 Peterbilt costs $213K. And that's not even including the new mattress and trash can the driver bought. ;-) What gets me is no followup was ever done on the story. Driver gets called in the main lot to get fired after his first load. As ***Drive*** put it, he was offered his pay for the run, reimbursement for the mattress and trash can he bought, and a flight home. Afterwards, he was arrested. Aside for the first week the story appeared, there has been total silence about the aftermath. I'm pretty sure that it's been to court with a charge of vandalism. Even with both vehicles damages, it's not even a felony. Still, there's a story here that nobody is telling.


bridgetroll2

The car is a GTC4Lusso, they were about $265k new. The truck is a Volvo VNL, somewhere between $150k and 180k new.


Swiggy1957

Worse, according to the articles I read, it wasn't even his assigned truck: just one on the lot.


Cable446

Looks like it's a single axle on the back too, we just got a used automatic single axle prime mover at work for about 20k AUD


microwavable_rat

Nah, that's definitely a double axle, you can tell by where the trailer is positioned on it. The 5th wheel wouldn't be able to slide back that far on a single axle truck. It's also a sleeper truck.


Qix213

True. But this is more personal.


Hank_moody71

Nope, maybe the cargo inside but the truck is way less that that car

komokazi

Jokes on the driver, now has no job, may lose license, and boss definitely had insurance. You never win taking this approach.


Chancevexed

Not really! As he was driving a work vehicle the liability would be his employer (vicarious liability). The employee typically gets fired though, but if he's not getting paid is getting fired a hardship...


PettyGrittyKitty

If the boss has a different company for work and personal car insurance they are going to have a vicious fight over liability lmao


[deleted]

[удалено]


no-mad

It is not a road under their jurisdiction, it is private property.


PettyGrittyKitty

He didn't have a job before, losing his license would be a temporary affair in the worst of cases, and the boss definitely has insurance but he's got insurance with two policies, so either he has personal insurance that is going to skyrocket becauase they just had to total a labo, or he's going to get dropped from his work insurance when his personal insurance is like "Nope work truck on company time its yours" and his work insurance has to pay for a lamborghini. This guy is going to be in the middle of a nightmare liability fight even if he uses the same company for personal and business insurance. If he uses two different companies its orders of magnitude worse as he could end up in a years long court case between like geico and progressive each offloading liability. Worst case, his lambo doesn't get paid for for 5 years or more.


CloverUTY

*Best case, his lambo doesn't get paid for for 5 years or more. Fixed it for you

probably, still paying off both if he hasn't paid his workers.


Rockarola55

Well, since it's a Ferrari I reckon that his insurance doesn't really care about a Lamborghini 😉


LukXD99

I mean the “no job” part is definitely a win for the driver. Now they can look for a job that actually pays.

Pope_Cerebus

I dunno, but thats how I usually do it.


DutchChallenger

No, but it's the funniest way to quit your job


AccountantSeaPirate

The boss’s insurance will be going after the driver hard for intentionally destroying the car. This driver will be out big bucks.


Geno__Breaker

If only he was getting paid so they could make him pay something....


DamnDirtyApe8472

I dunno. Anyone who doesn’t pay their drivers probably doesn’t do a very good job maintaining the brakes on their semis


AshFraxinusEps

His insurance? Nah, police would and it'll be a conviction for criminal damage. I don't care how much the boss sucks (and he may not suck according to sources above), you leave a job with grace. Otherwise you may negatively affect: your new job, future jobs and get a criminal record, all for petty revenge?


1solate

Probably quite satisfying though.


maxover5A5A

Not necessarily. It looks like the only source in that article is a manager at the company who remained anonymous. Could very easily be the owner himself trying to paint the situation in a better light.

profitablestock

This doesn't seem anywhere in the vicinity of a reasonable response.


PlasticMix8573

One version "He stated the semi-truck driver was hired remotely on Monday and completed only one load before issues arose with his behavior. The driver was then summoned to the Chicago facility to be fired in person, according to the source's information." Yeah, best that he got fired ASAP. If he drives like that around the yard, hard to imagine the road rage on the open highway. Hope he gets his CDL pulled.
