    What I would do is get a minimum of two spares. I have three. Keep one in each front pocket of your jeans, plus the one you have now.

    I've been on elogs for a little while. Hasn't taken me very long to find out that tanks and elogs do not mix. My miles will never be again what they were when I was on paper. At the end of the day, numerous changes are gonna have to be made by the company if all the drivers are gonna be on elogs. Everybody and everything will be effected way too negatively for the company to continue doing things the way they have been. Big changes will have to come or the entire operation will end up buckling like a belt and hardly any drivers will want to work here anymore.
     
    socal Thanks this.

    I also know if they dont want to lose business because of late loads, they're gonna have to start getting the appts changed on these loads where there's a lot of waiting to either load or unload or both. The 14 hour clock stops for no one. They're not gonna like it, but they're not gonna have a choice.

    What do you think they would say if you just started turning in paper logs one week and not say anything like nothing ever happened.
    Since there are still some people on paper logs.

    If a load requires 4 days to get from point A to B legally, it's gonna take at least that long no matter what. If you lose a day at a shipper and you're left with 3 days to get it delivered on time, the delivery is either gonna have to be rescheduled or it's gonna be late. IRT is gonna have to realize this and adjust their operation accordingly, or their bottom line will suffer dearly.
     
    socal Thanks this.

    i'm really annoyed I haven't been paid in a few weeks. either i'm doing something wrong or they are missing something. I never got my deadheads from Arden, NC to Montesuma, GA. I never got my recent deadhead from Nashville to Clovis, I didn't get paid for a run I did in Clovis going from the Dairy back to the yard. he said he'd take care of it. i'm not even sure I got paid for the runs I did before christmas. do I not get paid deadhead? that sucks if I don't. am I soppose to transflo deadheads? I didn't know that. also alot of these loads I haven't been paid for occured when my qualcomm was down, so is it just that I have no proof?

    am I doing something wrong? if I am please tell me. Call me greedy but I would like to get paid
