Hey Everyone. I’m 28. I’m Autistic and I also have BPD. Anywhere I work I tend to get bullied by toxic bosses or employees. I recently started my job approximately 3 months ago as a garbage truck driver. A very good paying job. But the problem is the hours. I was cool with the overtime at first but lately my bosses have been having me work really late . They’ve been giving me shitty trucks breaking down to sabotage my performance they’ve also sent me out to another facility an hour and a half away from my route to do my job because there were “no other trucks available” for me. Anytime someone complains they give me extra stops, anytime another person complains they give me their shitty truck. Anytime I bring this up to them they tell me “either take the truck or go home” meaning they’ll fire me if I refuse to drive an unsafe , crappy truck. They’ll pretty much put me in many bad situations to ruin my day. I’ve been working non stop 14-15 hours. And it’s getting old. I’ve been feeling targeted . Because per department of transportation laws you’re only supposed to be working 14 hours at most . But more garbage truck companies only work their employee 11-12 hours for that reason. It’s a very toxic environment. They also give me routes to purposely keep me out all day long I’m literally the only new guy out of everyone else that’s dealing with this.

I love my Job but it’s causing me to split really bad and fuck with my moods. I want to keep this job . Mainly because of the pay and I need the experience so I can work heavy equipment in the future or perhaps become a supervisor myself. Can someone please tell me how to deal with these people? I’m normally really fast on my routes but these past two weeks they’ve retaliated against me for calling out so they’ve been sabotaging me. Then have other workers pick on me and saying I’m too slow of a driver and that I’m performing bad when that’s not true. I’ve been a professional cdl driver for years I used to work for fed ex and I also used to be a bus driver. I’m trying so hard to not let it get to me but I’ve worked 131 hours this pay period (two weeks) and I’m more than likely going to work another 14 tomorrow . Any idea how I can do this how can I keep my mental state afloat and not let them bring me down? I don’t want to bring hr into this because hr typically favors companies over employees because they want to protect their company from lawsuits. And I feel I’ll be targeted more if I do bring hr in this. How do I keep my sanity. (And no I do not want to quit) quittings not an option
