    Well the wasted comment was from me. That's what he said I could get back from extra time that I used on duty but didn't have to.

    What do you mean by wasted? Do you mean you could have sped up and got your securement and tarping done faster? Or do you mean you should have only logged 30 minutes instead of the 50 it actually took?

    Well I made it to Palestine Arkansas last night parked up over at Natty's rather than the loves since that loves is small, I didn't even bother to try after 9pm. I've got 3hours 48min left so I'm going to attempt to make it to that little truck stop in Atlanta TX. I think it's called Kim's. Might be a roadys. See how this works out.

    At the very least is the loves in Domino

    Safety is telling you to peel on-duty time off your logs and change it to off-duty? That's what I get from that. I do it all the time on my own but I can't believe safety is telling you to do it.

    Safety didn't tell me to do anything, he offered to go back through and see if there was any time I could recoup based on time I logged that didn't need to be. Ended up only being an extra 13 minutes that I gained

    I don't see the problem because I've had 4 different safety managers do it. Btc, PGT, tmc, and now these guys

    Feel like a rented Mule, the red headed step child or rode hard and put away wet. Turned down a local good paying job running a real nice Pete. When the owner said we have to fudge alittle. Ok. Walk into the shop and here's a driver servicing his truck on a Sat. Might as well put your name on the door.
