    They should refund everyone who ever paid and make a fuel bonus. Pay you for staying under. The difference you don't use in winter ie bunk heater should cover summer.


    I know the pay one now but those numbers are not realistic.

    lolololololol

    as far as your other idea...that's what the bunk heater is for, and there is still an acceptable idle time in the winter months as well....
    I honestly don't know why we are still talkin about this. My idle is at 43% right now...guess what...I WON'T HAVE TO PAY A DIME!!
    Talk to your DM about idle credit the day after you have to idle excessively.
    If you don't like the CLEARLY OUTLINED idle policy, NOBODY is forcing you to work here

    With respect you don't have to continue to read the thread if it disturbs you that much. Do you continue to listen to radio stations you dislike?

    I got a message saying the idle time is 45% now finally but I wonder is it year round

    I got the same one joker. My dm relayed to me that it is for 10 hour breaks. Still not 100% on it, I'll bug her tomorrow and see if I can't get us a clear answer.

    Whatever it's for it's a step in the right direction.

    Your kidding, your company actually charged you to idle the freaken truck?

    Well, if that IS the case... The company understands truly one thing... and that is money.

    I personally would think of as many legit things to spend 'their' money as I possible could, some truly diabolical.

    I have several ideas if you needs some.... PM me

    Then, jump ship to a better company ASAP.
