    I think you are wrong otter. If he worked 4 hours on day 8 he would have a combined 74 hours in 8 days ...

    Sorry to be late to respond, been busy with the 4th of july weekend and all . Yes I ended up doing a reset. I had all those on duty hours because of shipper delays and loading related. Was not told I could put myself off duty while being live load/unload. Honestly it seemed fishy when my trainer had me do that I just though if I am in the truck in the driver seat I am on duty. I had to wait a lot of times for loads that took longer than proposed to load or some other reason. I also lost a lot of time being routed through secondary roads. It's not a bad job I just wish they were a little smarter with route planning, might be the "shortest" route but not the fastest thus crappy MPG.

    Guy comes on asking for some math help and the TTR bullies start telling him he doesn't earn enough. Gotta love it.


    Also got love these guys that dont earn enough so they have to falsify their logs to earn a living.
