I got ticketed in a company car for making an illegal u-turn. They impounded the car because I have an out-state-license (which is current btw) after being here for more than 10 days. Luckily they let my company get the car w/o having to wait on the 30 day hold. They werent pissed about that, because they didnt know of this law either. Heres where it gets horrible.. So my bosses get the car and take it back to the office. My friend spilled bleached all over the backseat a couple of days prior and we were getting it fixed. So my boss sees that and flips over it. Of course I told them it was an accident and that I did it, didnt even mention my friend at all.
So they told me I was careless and irresponsible. Fine. I guess you can call me that. But, it was an accident and sh*t happens. I didnt try or plan on doing this. I know it was my fault, I took blame for it, I said Id pay for it, & I was extremely apologetic.
So the company takes away the car and takes me off their insurance.

All this stuff is so EXTREME to me. Impounding the car on the FIRST time. Taking away the car, taking me off the insurance, and almost firing me for $800 worth of damage on my FIRST mistake.
Then to make things worst for me I just put my car in the shop a few days prior. So Im going to be without a vehicle for a couple of days.
Its just weird, its like everything compliments each other, as if all of this was planned out.
What should I do? I dont ever have problems like this, or as big...

This is a learning experience. Don't speed and don't have irresponsible friends. Good luck in the future.

Remember what you have learned about being responsible and take responsibility more seriously next time. No friends (with bleach?) in a company car. They are the property of the company and should be used as such. Obey traffic laws. When you are driving a company car, you are representing that company. Don't expect the company to foot the bills or even have you pay the bills for mis-using or damaging company property. Be glad you weren't fired. You screwed up. Learn from it, but don't let it get you down. Move on. Better luck next time.

Put away all the problems for a while, calm down, meditate, prioritize problems and then act to solve them one by one in order of urgency! Being stressed and pushed will only aggravate the existing problems and with the possibility of adding more to the list! Then, you may find yourself immersed in a situation where there are problems problems everywhere but not a solution in sight anywhere!

Find a new company to work for. This could work out for the best, and could be your cue to move on.
