    38 hours in 3 days so far this week, get paid 8 more tomorrow and have tomorrow and Friday off. I normally have Saturdays off, but I volunteered to work this Saturday to help the other 2 drivers knock out the loads. Should get at least 4 hours out of that, taking me up to 50. Not going to complain about that at all.

    Me and my partner got in about midnight I believe. I was sleep. I woke up around 1am started packing up and headed home. I have Thursday and Friday off and get paid for both days off. So no complaints here. Well at least that’s what I was told about Friday. I will believe when I see it lol. But overall a good week still. Hope you guys a Happy Thanksgiving and be safe out there.

    I hope you had a great Thanksgiving, as well.

    The Local & LTL scene is so much different from an OTR driver when it comes to major holidays.

    No sir, not me; although I did work Saturday to round out my week with 48.25 hrs + 8 paid for Thanksgiving Day.

    We have a goofy overtime policy: OT is paid for anything over 40, IF you work 48 or more hours/week. Anything less than 48 is paid at the regular rate, 48 or more gets time-and-a-half and it reverts back to 40 or more hours.

    Holiday pay is paid at the regular rate, regardless of how many hours you put in.

    Yessir. We started on an account pulling Amazon loads out of N. Ga to local post offices last week. Was asked to work on Friday and told it would be double pay. Turns out it was just straight time plus holiday pay. Disappointing. Worked that route every day since last Friday now finishing my week up today and off for three. I did get called into the office this morning for a safety talk. Boss showed me dashcam from the safety department of me following too closely on the highway. Posted speed is 55. I wasn't tailgating and was about 100' behind the car but I guess being technical about it surely not the recommended ~5 seconds or so. Point taken no big deal, I'll watch that better from here on.
