lets see where do i start.............better food, sense of being human, showering everyday, social time with family, and the best of all the daily "snuggle"...this is just naming a few things...............Marksteven Thanks this. -
Different regulations on your logs,which you don't have to log if the company keeps records of hours you worked. Do you know the local rules?
-
depends on the company, most within a 100 mile radius requires no log book some as far as 200 miles................. -
-
up here its the 100 radius...
I know...Alaska is a bunch of outcast,,,I shouldn't have said anything we aren't like the special lower 48 peeps. -
Basically you can log on-duty time without marking change of status unless you go off-duty. This is for the short radius trucking, like running a dump truck, or hauling local delivery. It's pretty tough to log a few minutes driving on a 24 hour grid, but most jobs require as much not driving as they do driving, if not more.
You can work local and not be at home, you are just based somewhere and report to work on site every day you work.
That can be in other states as well.

it varies from state to state. each one has different rules. ex. in Pa you work over 12 hours you have to do a log book.......... -
I think several thought I was asking what the rules was
Have a great night everyone
