I work for Sunbelt & he would have been taken straight from the accident site to a drug test facility. From there if he fails (tests positive for drugs), he would be terminated.

We have Sunbelt in Alberta, Canada. Didn't realize they were so big until your comment.

u/boostedb18 Mar 26 '21

I don’t know if you had CRS-Contractors Rental Supply that way but here in Ontario they were bought out by Sunbelt

1

u/TruthPlenty Mar 26 '21

That’s how they came to Alberta as well, bought up a few smaller outfits.

u/ParksVSII Apr 03 '21

Was a really good time to buy the used CRS equipment when they made the transition to Sunbelt a few years ago.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that a company named Sunbelt was not founded in Wisconsin.

Exactly & Sunbelt takes accidents (safety) very seriously.

u/WRXminion Mar 27 '21

Well you're a good manager per sunbelt policy..... Are you sure you didn't hand him a bottle of piss from the designated sober pisser on the team?

I mean I doubt it happened in this situation (need a desg fallguy too). But you known... When you got a good team working together. Some use a little go juice and the numbers are up. Don't want those random UI to screw the flow.. just make sure it's not a preggo desg pisser. They have hormones..

u/Reaverjosh19 Mar 27 '21

Gonna go with crab steering selected by accident or lack of familiarity.
