So what does every think of the new home time / days off policy, just announced this week.
My fleet,( check with your brainless, on your fleet's ht policy) no more than 4 days off, no matter how long you stay out, no more banking(saving days off ) Time off must include the weekend, because frieght slows way down on the weekends.
So i guess i need to infor the banks , the doctor's office, any other business i deal with on my days off during the middle of the week, that they now must be open on the weeknds. -
WOW, Marten has really change
-
That must be an OTR change. Seems to match the standing rules for Regional.
I'm having some trouble getting in to see a dentist because I'm home every other weekend. All the schmucks with day jobs that can go in any day of the week are still snatching up all the friday afternoon/monday morning appointments.skibum_63 Thanks this. -
When i was on their general mills account, you get 6 days off a month and use them how you wants. I use to take a whole week off in a month.

I'm on a regional run and I got the message no more than 3 days off at a time. They also requested the time be on the weekends for the "freight is slower" reason. Fortunately my dentist has Saturday hours, as for if I need a Monday for doctor appts. I put Dr's appt on Monday in the comment section and don't get a problem. Maybe going back on a dedicated account soon though so will see how that works out. Hoping for the better because these 200-300 miles POS loads are not working. Trying to hold on at least until I can get some medical issues done, but these trolls aren't making it easy.

Im otr and haven't received any message about the new hometime policy. The hometime was what I liked about this company.
-
That's always irritated me...they send a fleet wide changing some policy, and I might or might not get the message, and then I get a gripey phone call from somebody 'cause I'm not doing it right.
Well, ya didn't tell me! -
