    I misunderstood his wording. Read it as if I'm off today, will my hours for recap come back today or tommorow. That's how it's worded in my understanding.

    It also makes sense the way you read it now too.

    I used it and found it extremely handy, especially as I was Canada / US. It made trip planning a breeze.
     
    Peelsession and Blackshack46 Thank this.

    Your elogs tell you how many hours you have, and what you're going to pick up the following day. Look under roadside inspection, summary, hours gained. Or: roadside inspection, 8 day log, then look at the one from 8 days ago (all the way to the left). That's what you'll pick up the following day at 00:00.

    Also, in regards to the contract; if you work on one of your days off, you only need to work 4 hours. So you only need 4+ hrs on your 70. If they call you on your day off, you can go in and pull a 2-4 hr load and go home. Just don't take a load that pays more hours than what you have available. And make sure it's a load that you know you can do in less time than what it pays (think: traffic, backhauls, etc)

    I'm pretty sure,,, I think he's the same one that posted a few weeks ago when starting the job. And the details make it sound like the same place

    Yes sir you are correct we do work together, I'm still figuring things out but I'm getting the hang of things. I just wanted to be able to look ahead a few days maybe and figure out what I am able to work until I can reset, thanks for the replies. Btw I'm number 143 newbus erectus
