Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do. "Tattling" programs are quickly becoming a staple of any sort of logistical jobs. Companies will parade it around as if it keeps people safe, or it protects the honest employees. It's designed to give them reasons to get rid of you.

Yeah, in a world where we are short of drivers and they are hiring questionable people, they are looking for reasons to fire you.

Doubly funny if OP is American, where you simply don't need reasons to fire people.

Right to work is very misunderstood online. It's not the freebie everyone seems to think it is.

If you terminate sometime without documented cause, you can't deny their unemployment claims and must keep paying them in all 50 states.

The myth that they can fire you with no recourse is something they want everyone to believe so that nobody files for unemployment. when they're entitled to it.

That's definitely going to change in this political climate. There will be states where the head of the unemployment insurance will just stop paying at Trump's direction and ignore court orders. MMW
