Anyone out there get paid for time in the sleeperberth?

The fed pays 57 every night you are 100 miles from home.

 

4 years ago I was on a dedicated run from okc to North Dakota for Ryder. They paid us $50 dollars for every night in the sleeper. Which normally was 3 nights each week.

 

We pay our drivers $80 if they have to sleep in their trucks. Granted, we are regional and drivers are home pretty much every day, but in the event they have to sleep in the truck, we will pay them $80.00 to sleep in their truck or a hotel.

Many years before my dad went on his own he worked 4 AAFES now exchange. But he drove teams and they were paid hourly both. While either was driving. So he literally got paid overtime 2 sleep. Wasn't a huge hourly rate. I believe like $13 per hour. But they both got paid that rate whenever truck was on duty or driving. So in a week he made 40hrs plus like another 50-60 hrs overtime plus his per diem. Was a great gig back then.

 

I hauled powder for 10 years and got paid round the clock by the hour from when I left home until I returned. It was very lucrative until the Dangerous Good act changed the way the product was handled. I worked for a agent so I was treated much better than the guys hauling for the few carriers licensed to haul powder.
Ah...the peeler bar in Sturgeon Falls On on the flip flop,

 

I get paid for everything, from the time I leave my house until I get home again. When I'm on tour or something else, I get a hotel buyout $75 a day. I work for the biggest entertainment lighting company.

 

Jason's deli drivers get $6 per hour while in the bunk and :-Odriver is driving.
