I have wondered myself why they do it. But I know I didn't pass. The worst thing is we don't do any of that on the job as far as having to Winding landing gear at 90 RPMs or stacking pallets. To me it's a little stupid but I'm sure they do it for insurance reasons or something like that. But I doubt you would have much problem with it.

How have your miles been so far this month?
-
Averaging about 2800. Had a slack week last week because a receiver held me up for two and a half days. Only about 1800 that week. Thankfully that doesn't happen very often.Lonesome Thanks this.

Do you get detention pay?
-
Holy crap, I hope was at least in an area with something to do. Two and a half days, that's unreal.
-
Yeah as long as your own time. Anything over 2 hours. Luckily is something I don't get very often.

I kind of got screwed on that one. I had a 5:30 a.m. appointment time and when they gave me the load there was no way I would have enough time to get there. I got there at 11 a.m. but the guard said they stopped at 9 a.m. they only unloaded from 1 a.m. to 9 a.m. of course the company didn't know that and neither did I. So being it was Friday I had untill 1 a.m. Sunday night.
-
Did you get any compensation for the waiting?

That sucks man, but what can ya do. Sometimes you're the hammer, sometimes you're the nail. But either way you got the short end of the stick.smurf-316 Thanks this.
