knowing how alot of otr companies operate i wouldnt be surprised if he wasnt paid at all or was paid VERY LITTLE for all of the stuff he had to do. glorified slave ships, only thing worse is being in a rental slave ship and paying for your own fuel.

Lesson three, stay the #### out of the memphis truckstops at night the trans, ####### and hookers will eat you up. Maybe damage your rig when you say no.
Lesson 4. Refer to Lesson one. Understand that you are the agent of your company on the road in the truck, YOU get to decide compliance or failure to abide by the laws under which you are license and trained to operate.brsims Thanks this. -

Sitting all day can be worse than sleeping. They snap there fingers. Run boy run. Not knowing the day is over. With e logs, they see you off duty. So here is the truth, you were working off duty to save hos, when you should have logged as on duty. Dot rules, not mine. The load planners only put you on when available. So you have to be ready after a 10 hr break .sitting in the driver's lounge at a truck stop is considered off duty. Unless you truck is in the shop and you are required to move it. That breaks your ten. So technically you have violated the 10 or split sleeper rule. Suggestion, put the truck out of service. Do not drive until legal to do so.
