How does one leaving a mega to go local demonstrate 'verifiable' miles?

They usually ask for "verifiable" experience, not verifiable miles. This is to weed out people with no experience claiming to have worked for their brother-in-law or whatever. I have been asked to give estimates of miles driven for various companies, but have never been asked to provide actual documentation. Nor have I ever heard of an employer requesting such a thing from an applicant. You really don't have to worry about keeping track of your actual miles.

Fuhgetaboutit.

 

I keep a paper log book regardless of the e-logs

 

Unsigned of course? Can't have two sets of logs, even if one is e-logs.

 

Ding ding ding! Every pay per mile company I worked for showed mileage on pay stub.

 

Really newbie, you got other things to worry about. I don't hire asking mileage but years and so do almost everyone else.

I don't get the spreadsheet thing, if you all claim per diem then you need your logs or a summary from the log system. Summaries can be sent to you which gives well a summary of you logging activity.

 

Have your company print out or email your logs or summary weekly regardless. You will want to claim per diem on your taxes. Most will just want verifiable experience, say minimum 24 months, etc.

 

If one is not using it as an official Log and its identical to the other Log, not sure what the problem would be... It's not two logs... It's a copy of the sane log.

 

I'm too tired from securing a load from Hades, otherwise I would take the time to look up the appropriate regulation. You can't have two log books. That goes for two paper logs or for a paper log and e-log.

When I was on e-logs with Swift, during training the trainee always made a paper log so they would be familiar with how to do it in case the Qualcomm system went down. You could NOT sign that paper log, otherwise it became an official log and would put you in violation of the rule that says you can't have two logs. We always signed them, "For Training Purposes Only".

IF the Qualcomm froze up and wasn't recording HOS, we had to stop and make out paper logs for the day we were driving when Qualcomm was down. After Qualcomm came back on (download from satellite), then we HAD to throw away the paper logs.

Can't be running more than one log book.

 

Running "two logs" implies you are doing something to juggle your books this needing to use two logs to cover it up... This is the same log... Yes, one is the official one but both are the same identical version.

Don't muddy the waters.

Personally, in my opinion, it would just be extra work and easier ways to accomplish the goal.
