Absolutely agree on this one. No job especially a trucking job is worth not being there for your mother. If the company doesn’t agree it wasn’t the right fit for you anyway

Jobs are one and a million bro. You only got 1 mother tho. Tell that job that you've got a family emergency and if they can't respect that then I'd find another company. Go be with your family bro

God I lift this persos mother, this person and their family up to you and ask you provide comfort. God I ask you take this situation and subject it to your will, and I pray God your will is for health. Be with the doctors and medical staff as they address the situation and guide them as they work. Keep this man safe as he travels and help him see the way to being with his family, as I know you make ways where none are seen. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

MrLitt1111@reddit

All these drivers have a point. The worst that can happen is you get fired. With a cdl and experience you can easily get another job. You won't get another mom. Call dispatch and call your supervisor and tell them both you're going home for a few days. If they get upset you parked the truck and went home then fuck them, they would also likely take time off work if put in your situation.

That’s a rough one bud, but a state away is nothing in trucking. Ask dispatch for a load that way for you to park a few days at worst. Get money to go out there, your time with her, then free to leave right with another load

Ah yea, having a local does make that more difficult. Good choice though. The loss of a few bucks now is worth the time to check in. One of my favorite authors has been battling sepsis for a year and some now. And he was relatively healthy. It genuinely almost killed him.

My mom died the Friday before Thanksgiving. We had recently started talking again after several years of not talking due to her being not great and me being hard headed, take it from me, if I could go back in time I would 100% elect to give up pride, money, jobs and differences to spend more time with her.

🤍 thanks for sharing this here, that’s what a community of faith is for- lifting each other in prayer. Praying for you, your mom and family; and agree with the responses- this is an urgent unforeseen situation, and if you reach out to your company, maybe you’d be surprised by their response even for a few days. Hang in there, sending you strength & take it easy w yourself.

Park the truck. Fuck the job. You can be the only reason why she doesn't pass if she is going to. Many times our loved ones will fight death until their favorite person shows up. Until then they suffer. Sorry if this sounds harsh. Also if you don't go see her and she passes it will eat you up. Been there done that. I wish I could have seen her one last time and told her I love her. But I was to busy making money in the oil field. Fuck man this one hits close to home. Hope you do the right choice.

Prayers for you, your mom and your family. Go be with your mom. The job is just numbers, if they let you go over being with your mom then the company wasn't worth working for. You only have 1 mom. Jobs come and go. With 6 years in, you will be able to get another job if you need to. ❤️ 🙏

That's rough. I lost my mom 5 years ago but have the fortune of working for a company that treats me like a person, not a number. Told me to take off as much time as I need. So I was able to spend the week in the hospital with her before she passed. Park your truck and catch the next flight to go be with your mom. If you don't, it will eat you up the rest of your life. Out of curiosity, where are you at and where do you need to get to?

Park the truck. Seriously. No load, no dispatch, no company policy is more important than your mom’s life. Freight will still be there tomorrow. Your family might not get that luxury. Any decent company will understand, and if they don’t, they’re not worth your loyalty. You’ve given six years of your life to this lifestyle. You’ve earned the right to be with your mother when it matters most. I’m glad your dad and sister are with her, but you being there matters too, to her and to you. Don’t carry the regret of choosing miles over family. I’m keeping your mom in my thoughts. Do what you need to do and take care of your people.

My mom (70) just had a similar thing happen a couple weeks ago just before christmas. Ended up leading to a heart attack and then other issues after. I ditched my truck and went with her. Didnt get fired thankfully but high key leave the truck. Its just a job, thats your mom. I know not everyone feels like they have the safety net or the privilege to be able to do that without repercussions, but in the end it is just a job.. and any job that fires you OR refuses to hire you because of the reason you were fired is not worth it. But if you cant park it and go, im sending positive vibes. My mom is on the mend now and as much as my pay sucked, im glad i went to be with her.
