Freymiller Bound;Reefer Madness Begins!!!

Gee Ron, I worked for them twice too, never had a problem with miles, and never ever kissed anyones pass. I did make a few of them mad from time to time, but the only kissing done was with my work.

 

I have orientation the 19th just needing to know more info on the company do they still have the miles? How was the dot physical ?

 

Pinball, are you still at Freymiller?

 

Yes, but I have changed my name. I used to go by pin ball because I would leave out of the house and bounce around the northeast and Canada. Back and forth, up and down.
Now, I do most my driving at night. I prefer it that way. The Sand Man comes out at night while people sleep.

 

Like me some night driving. Feels like easy money.

 

Yeah it do!
$$$$$

 

Curious on their refresher program and how it transpires. Is it cost out of my pocket? Run as a team? Is it mileage or a set pay per week? Been looking for an added info but havent had much luck in searching these forums.

 

Ok I'm not a lazy driver, but I am new to Elogs or ELD's and if you can teach me how to get 4462 miles in a week legally I want to know how. Please PM because the numbers I work out are as follows:
At an average speed of 65mph That is 68 hours of straight on-duty-driving time, only 2 hours on the 70 hr clock were not driving.
That means only 17 minutes per day to do 30 min breaks, pre-trip, fueling, loading, unloading.

Now I am not trying to be sarcastic and I'm not saying this couldn't be done but please show me how. Are you just talking about an electronic log on your smartphone or are we talking an ELD hooked to the truck computer that logs anything over 5mph as driving time.

 

This was exactly what I was thinking myself when I read that post. The driver could get the whole deduction. The company is just using a loop hole to reduced wage costs.

 

OK I checked and the 70 hour rule took effect in july 2013 and this post falls in that. 4100 miles is 63 hours of driving so in the 70hr/8 day period you only had 7 hours of non-driving time. How did you log pretrip, loading, unloading, fueling, 30min break with less than an hour a day. I'm not calling anyone a liar . . . I just want someone to tell me how to work the ELD so I can do these miles. Thanks
