That is what the law says - however employers have been doing the "flex time" bs for at least 30 years.

 

No doubt. You know how government is though they wait for someone to say something before they finally act. A good time or two of someone complaining and them paying fines for doing it just whatever old way they want may put a stop to it. Maybe not, though. If they have gotten by with it for decades at this company and just pay some fines and maybe compensate a few drivers once, or one driver if individual basis then it may be cheaper to keep just doing that way.

 

Yeah I always helped the drivers out that asked nicely. Some will chase ya down when you're busy and demand this and that and you stop what you're doing and help me now attitude. Yeah they ended up sitting till one of the other guys felt like helping them.

 

yeah different sites do different things. One I was at was a set schedule and I worked pretty much the same thing all the timie. Different sites in the same area had different shifts, swing shifts, etc.

 

Oh crap, what's @Dave_in_AZ going to tease you about now?

 

Best of Luck Mr. Opus !

 

Almost every SNI driver on a dedicated account hasn't felt an income pinch from current market conditions. System guys have a little, but we're deadheading for freight and keeping more loads in house, miles are okay and I'll say one good thing about the new pay structure - when miles are low the paycheck is pretty nice for the work that I did.

Too many people put value on 'sunk costs' - in this case time with the company. Unless that time creates a 'value add', it shouldn't be taken into account when evaluating opportunities.
