    The latest is Oakley is reneging on it's agreements with it's drivers. The only thing that still holds true is the pay rate, and even that has changed to where they are going to pay drivers more with the drivers own tax deduction so that the company can put more money in their pocket. Everything else has changed as well. Two days home time earned for every week worked has turned into one day for every week worked. Layover and break down pay has been capped at one day pay after the first 48 hours. Also if the driver has detention time owed to them they have to jump through hoops to get paid and even then they have to hound the company to get it. I guess Oakley doesn't want to keep experienced drivers as much as they claim that they do. Oakley1.jpg Oakley2.jpg

    With the bad economy, and massive lay-offs in other industries, these crappy trucking companies will always have plenty of new drivers.

    Oakley thinks like the feds. A day off is an award is equivalent to social security being an entitlement.

    Actually, nearly everything he said is in the letter, albeit with the bs company spin on it so hopefully you don't realize they're bending you over.
