He he he... 'adjust' is a nice way of saying 'lie' (also referred to as 'fudging') . If you can find a good company where you can log it completely legally, and still make good money, then that's great.

In my experience, to be productive and make the money I want, I had to fudge the hell out of my logbook. And I was lucky cause I only got caught once, and that wasn't by DOT, but by the company's safety dept.

The key is knowing what to fudge and when, if you cannot make it believable, just take the penalty & save yourself. I would say safely within a day, you can fudge 30min. without sweat, somewhere between your stops and average mph.
