No They had people net as a ELD on a tablet. mounted to the truck but now they decided they wanted the drivers to provide it. just so it saves them money but screws the drivers over.
-
that was on a good day a lot of times longer. and then being expected to drive 8 to 10 hours down the road so the load will be on time. there was plenty of times I was forced to work 24 hours straight. they did not care if you were exhausted. it was all about the load that was the only thing that mattered.
-
How were you "forced"? Coercion? Nunchucks? The rack? Waterboarding? Noogies? The point of a gun? Inquiring minds want to know....TB John and Crude Truckin' Thank this.

It was expected and if you don't make it to the receiver on time, they would take a big chuck of your pay. and would have you sit in the middle of nowhere for days. with no load which is one of many reasons why I don't work there anymore I told them to go to hell.
surf_avenue, LTL Bull and REO6205 Thank this. -

Just like all crappy companies-you're forced when they say "well if you can't or won't do it, well find somebody else who will" thus ending your job as if you don't quit or get fired they will just sit you out in the truck with no loads available-allegedly- and just make it so terrible that a person does end up quitting. If you don't know how they work, then you're either at a job that treats you like what you're worth and has been your only job in the industry, or you've never driven a company truck before. We all know how they "force" a driver to do illegal things, with the threat always looming overhead of losing your job, or not getting a paycheck to pay your bills and take care of your family.Gearjammin' Penguin, Numb and TB John Thank this.

Um, with job loss? Are you really this clueless? Are you this naive about how truck drivers used to be treated before the invention of the ELD?FearTheCorn Thanks this.

Grow a set. When an employer tries to coerce you into something illegal just throw the keys on his desk, grin, and walk out.
The first time you let them bully you is the hardest, after that they'll roll right over you anytime they want to because they know you'll give in.
Don't be a tool, son.bryan21384, Sons Hero, Speedy356 and 7 others Thank this. -
Yeah, clueless, thanks for reminding me how clueless me and everyone is, and how you have all the answers. How would you have handled this, wise one? Please enlighten the assembled masses.Last edited: Feb 27, 2024
