So 34 hour resets are not considered home time correct

If so, how would one eventually get home? I want to be home after every 2 weeks

 

I believe you need to tell your dispatch that you want to be home for the weekend and get your restart while at home.

 

For the record. A 34 is not an action. You don't just take a 34 like going home. A 34 is simply going 34 hours off duty. Once done your week resets. Its actually automatic. The computer software the carriers use automatically resets. The best setting for doing this is either at home, at a friends home or in a hotel.

 

Don’t be afraid to ask your company to go home preplan pre-think all your moves. Also when you take the 34 hour reset preferably make a good chunk of change before you take off so you know you’ll have money to sit on for the 34 hour reset. You know to pay bills or spend time with your family

 

If you go home, that’s home time. If you do a 34 on the road it’s a 34. If you’re at home for 34 hours, it resets your clock just the same and it’s home time.

 

Tell dispatch to get you home every 2 weeks. I would never do a reset away from home, no money in that.

 

Every company is different. Talk to them and find out. I run regional and get home for the weekends so yeah, some weekends 34 is the full home time. But it's at home.

 

Go to the thruckersreport main page that shows all the job listings.... Not working for any of them would be a start.

It may sound like a joke but I'm dead serious.

 

if you are in key West in January take a 34 .... if not tell them to get your ### home every other week ...... if you have a lot of days coming back with 9 or more hours your better off not taking a reset just go on duty for 1 minute every day your off

 

And no pay for doing a reset. Even if on the road. This is BS.
