truck wash

i bet you did

 

Okay, here's what DOT has to say on this. Now, keep in mind I'm a company driver who runs local/regional and rarely if ever have to take the truck anyplace that I'm not under a dispatch.

That said, occasionally I'll get stranded someplace, waiting for a load/unload and it's gonna be overnight. The company will tell me to get a hotel rather then the truck idle. While going from the customer to the hotel and from the hotel to the customer I can log that as either Line 3 or Line 4, the company would prefer I log it on Line 4, and DOT is fine with this (we've been audtied many times). However, once I get to the hotel, if I need to take the tractor someplace to get something to eat, I can log it on line 1.

Also, in the case of local delivery, we log all our local work (generally within 30 miles +/- of the yard on line 4. However, at the end of the day when we final are log book, we must show some driving time. A recent day looked like this, I started my day # 2:15 ended my day # 3:30 pm. The furthest I went from our yard was to Boulder. When my day started I went on line 4, and didn't touch my log again til 3:30 pm. In between I drove 170 miles and never really left the City of Denver, I went as far North as 104th, as far So. as Evans Blvd., as far East as Tower Rd. and as far West as Ward Rd. At the end of the day, I randomly showed 2 hrs on line 3 in the am and 2 hrs on line 3 in the pm, I tagged each one as local driving, then at 3:30 I showed off-duty and turned it in.

That's how we are supposed to log it for City work. Anything we do outside the specific area of the Denver Metro, we log on line 4.

 

Oh, and back to the original subject, we have a company that comes out every 2 weeks and washes the trucks, they do a ###### job, but that's what the company pays for. Couple of times per year I take the truck to the truck wash and get it cleaned up good, sometimes the company reimburses sometimes they don't.

 

Black, I don't think you understand who you're talking to here.

This guy isn't just your average, rank-and-file Dick. He's obviously a Head Dick, so show him the appropriate respect, OK?

 

I bet he did too!

He hangs on my every word....

OOPS!



My bad!

 

When I first read this, I was thinking to myself...."self, did he really mean "irreverent"...or was he thinking "irrelevant"...NO, that would be MY posts being "irrelevant" and sarcastic!"

And the spelling of "baecause"....BW900, are you reverting back to your early adolescent years of schooling using the "Olde English" or maybe even "Latin" base of text and verbiage? I know you are older than even me...but you must learn to control your Norse/Viking upbringing!

 

I could have meant irrelevant....Because many drivers are just that!

You over thought that....

Here on earth we call that a typo...

 

Your air quality "here on Earth" has much more oxygen in it than I am accustomed to....also, didn't you report on another thread you were "chillin and grillin" in Corona? Is that really a part of Earth...or just Northern Mexico?

 

It sounds a lot like Mexico here I mean with no one speakin' english and all...But I have REDD sittin' here in my truck and we're laughin' at where this thread has gone so far, So the non english proliferation is not realevant to me at this time!

 

YEAH! Estaré de acuerdo con el Dick tratando de ser un Dick Dick!
