The trucking companies will be forced to ask better rates per mile or detention pay or faster loading and unloading. Because they can't expect the drivers to keep sitting for free.
The 70 hour work week has value. If people give away their time for free then it has less value. Since sitting to load and unload is off the clock or off the 70 hours. It has $0 value. People will care and it will have value when sitting to load or unload is included in the 70 hours. It will have a lot of value because the truck will stop and that is something the trucking companies and shippers and receivers do care about. -
I do get layover pay and will actually get 3 days paid starting today. Never had a problem getting that. Just got back from a LONG run and looking forward to a lot of paid sleep before leaving again. Lol -

I no longer have a dog in the fight. I'm paid hourly. But I'm going to throw my two cents in.
Out of all the things wrong with this industry is this really the one thing you want the government to step in and change?
I can think of more meaningful fights.ElevateMe, Long FLD, homeskillet and 2 others Thank this. -
