Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

Because for some reason this industry doesn't believe in it....asked myself the same question few weeks ago at my company

 

I think it's an issue everywhere. We have the same problem where I work, a non transportation related place. It's the Govt so maybe that doesn't count, lol.

 

Allan! Lol..oops did I type that out loud?!

 

Of course they were surprised!!!! Come on now, JB!!!! Even running locally like I have been, they're surprised when empty. After 30 minutes yesterday morning, I call and get, well, we have 400 other folks and you know how it is in here first thing in the morning. My response? And I even kept it civil, was it only took me 1.5 hours to get here. How did you forget I needed my next move so quickly? I swear!!!! It's not like I'm hourly where I don't care how long it takes. I get tired of working 10-14 hour days for 200 miles. And folks wonder why I'm so dang cranky!!! Now, when Higgins is at the desk, that doesn't usually happen. Before I get to my destination, I've got my next move, and I sometimes even know what I'm doing all day. I've gotten 500 miles running locally a time or two under his direction. The other one, and I'm not talking about Phillip, is as dumb as a box of rocks and will send me on the stupidest runs. Sometimes I think just to piss me off.

 

Does anyone know how to figure out how much of our gross was paid as per diem?. Is it simply a matter of subtracting taxable income as listed on W2 from Gross income as listed on last payroll statement?.

I know we claim unpaid per diem, but I don't know how much per diem I have already been paid.

 

Look in box 12 on your w-2 with code DD

 

Thanks, that DD code is listed as employer health insurance contributions. Didnt think that would be the same as per diem.
