Starting at Stevens

First I have heard of that. I will talk to my trainer and see what he is doing.

 

so i cant park at the pilot which is 7 miles from my house, hum

 

That's a big no no... can't lea e the truck unattended at a truck stop. It's ok to eat, shower etc. but not having someone pick you up and take you home for a day or two.

 

oky doky, because im single, well ether way there a truck stop the other way 7 miles and bunch of dealers around there and if i did leave there, how they would they know, unless anthor driver says so, like i take my 34 there

 

The QC tracking will tell on you, and the fact you requested home time, and the truck is NOT parked at the approved location. A company driver must park the tractor and trailer at the location Stevens specifies. An alliance drivers has to park the trailer at an approved location, and has the option, if local ordinances allow, to take the tractor home. And if you think you can just park it at the truck stop anyway and go home, and something happens to that trailer and tractor while you are away, you will pay for it.

And yes other Stevens drivers will report the truck being unoccupied in a truck stop... they can be paid a reward for doing so.

As for having to pay the storage fee, that driver did NOT follow steven's policy, and was NOT parking at a steven's approved location.
I had to find a location to park the trailer at, due to living where I do, and would have had to pay for the storage fee if there was one, and Stevens would have reimbursed me for the trailer. I am an alliance driver. I park the trailer at the school I went to for NO charge.

 

okay thank's i'm just need this type of info, if i decide too go with stevens , i didnt know this before about stevens thanks for great info, and there on e -logs , which would also tattle on you right, never knew about drivers tattling on there driver's ether, but thank's for great info

 

In selected cases, there may be a charge for parking. but Stevens pays the charge as long as it's an approved location. If you want to pay and be reimbursed, that's fine.
If it's a cash flow issue, Stevens will issue a T check authorization.
I suspect the parking issue was not the real reason he left.

 

The key is follow policy. Not all KW, pete, Thermoking are stevens approved. And we all see the people who think they don't have to obey the law, so why would they obey a company policy?

 

found out about that when i went on timeoff there are 2 dealers within 8 miles of me and i could not park there ended up going into one 20 miles away with a secure lot and gate around property line

 

no you cant
