    I work for Conway Truckload and can bank days off, good deal. Not real happy that they took me out of a Cascadia and put me in an International. Anyone know of any companies that let you bank your days off? thanks

    I love working for Conway, but that doesn't mean that I can't have my cake and eat it too. LOL, i knew i would get some idiot that wants to try and life my life for me and would respond with some stupid reply, i'll make a deal with you, you do what you want to with your life, and i'll live mine the way i want, deal?

    How many days are you wanting to bank at once? I know most companies have a limit as they don't want the truck not moving for long periods.

    Roehl transport has a 11/3 plan. Out 11 days and off three. If you stay out longer, you get an additional day off for each seven out. 18/4, 25/5, etc.

    What I've always heard about banking days off is you end up slip seating your truck a lot. Makes sense for the owner of the truck, he's not going to leave it set for days at a time but a negative for a driver.

    Not sure exactly how their program works, but I have a friend who works at Melton. He's told me about banking days and being able to use them when you want more time off at a time.
