I’m a delivery driver for Foodlion, which is a large grocery chain in the east.
For the past 6 weeks or so, we have been crazy busy delivering grocery products to the Foodlion stores in our area, however, things are beginning to slow way down and it seems to be getting back to normal.
We have been getting OT bonuses but that looks like that may not be around much longer.
How are things with all you drivers right now? Hours affected?

I work for NFI on the Kohls account. Since thy shut down a month ago we have been filling in on other accounts until this week. Most of them have caught up or slowed down so much that thy don't need any help, I'm an O/O so I decided just to take a couple weeks off because the only things thy had to do were short crap loads not worth starting my truck for. All we can do is hope things start to open up before to long but I can't see it in the near future, it's going to be a hard road for some, it already has been for a lot of people, I'm just thankful i got to stay busy up till now.

I had a light day here and there, but for the most part I haven’t been affected much at all.
Deadbeat Dad and EuropeanTrucker Thank this. -
For the most part our drivers are getting the same hours they did last year at this time.
Our fuel tankers are down a little but hardly enough to notice.Trucker61016 and Deadbeat Dad Thank this. -
I'm temporarily not driving. They were trying to keep things as balanced as possible, so they took me off the road and brought me inside to do painting and maintenance work.
Deadbeat Dad Thanks this. -
Still going back and forth between Phx. and LA, had a couple of smaller loads than usual, but looks to ramp back up this week.
Trucker61016 Thanks this. -
Office asked drivers to cut to 40 hours weekly instead of 45 until this all blows over.
-
Are they intentionally letting you milk the clock to get a consistent 45 hours per week? -
Trucker61016 Thanks this.
