New Tanker Yanker Here

What's good on your end man?

 

After such a week, how much money did they pay you?

 

Haven't been in a trick since I quit schneider last Novemeber. They told me that they were cutting my pay because I refused to go to to new York and I reminded that they had made a deal with me, in emails that I still had " that I dont go into the northeast id they wanted me to come back and they had cut my pay when I had come back so that with the new pay cut I was making first year driver wages. I told them where to go and was so absolutely disgusted with that and the fact that I stepped in human feces twice in one weeks from slobs crapping next to my truck and between trailers at customers and just how unhappy Ive been that I took 5 months sabbatical and just went back to work in may at an aerospace company. I work in shipping for a whole $12 and hour and i just about quit everyday but they have alot of overtime and the guys there are nice. Just the pays sucks and having to deal with 'supervisors' who threaten to 'write you up' from everything from revving a forklift to high to not answering you radio in an appropriate manner.
Not sure where my life is going at this point. How have you been?
I dont follow the forums much anymore.

 

you should get layover for $65.

 

Has to be a 24 hour period for that $65 to get paid out. So if that truck broke down at what? 1pm? If it's fixed at noon the next day.. No $65

 

not necessarily true. if detention turns into the same amount as layover at 10 hrs then.......

 

From my understanding detention starts 2 hours after appt time and increases until it's $65. Then it stays that way unless you manage to sit there for 48 hours in which case you'd get an extra $65.
Layover is $65 for any dispatched 24 hour period where you do nothing.
Breakdown is $65 for any breakdown that takes more than 24 hours (same as layover except calculation starts from time of breakdown). Not sure if I'm 100% correct on breakdown though. that's the only one I haven't had to deal with yet. (Goes off to find some wood to knock on)
