Yeah, it’s beyond dumb. I’m 8 years into the industry and once I refinance my house I’m outta here.
no overtime,no lunchbreak required legally if you’re local. Forgive the analogy, but the trucking industry is modern day slave labour.

South eastern pays overtime in Florida. I’ve seen the paystubs. I’m not one for government intervention I’m a rural American, but if a trucking company’s pays OT it’s from the kindness of there heart or to avoid unions.
being in the south there’s no incentive for trucking employers to pay time and a half, or give lunch breaks. If employees unionize they’ll just shut the terminal down, and there’s no federal or state laws protecting workers -
What sucks is when Yellow tanks, they are probably the last company that will pick me up because I would be prior union. -

What’s bull-#### is the blatant politics, double standards, and favoritism around so many of these terminals.Magoo1968, bzinger, road_runner and 2 others Thank this. -

The lunch only bothers me because my employers like to auto deduct it from the clock
