Take Pics while at Shipper...

correct me if i am wrong, but detention pay starts two hours after your scheduled appointment time, yeah? i know each company has their own policy, but curious if it is pretty much the same industry wide?

 

They're all different...
Now most companies won't pay "stringing" pipe because they know that the contractors are messed up as in the right-of-ways aren't cleared for rigs, too many trucks in line, not enough side-booms to offload......

 

arnold pays a whoping 12.50 an hour after the first 2. (wich is alot better than USA's NADDA ZILCH ZERO)

 

That tank I delivered from Xerxes paid $50/h after the 1st hour if the contractor wasn't ready to set it. Didn't get it though, I delivered the tank the night before in their yard.

 

Today I delivered to Big Lots, it was a preloaded sealed trailer, opened the doors it looked like a bomb went off. No pallets, odd size boxes stacked to the roof. alot of them fell over. The kid at the dock said that was normal. At my last stopoff, they were knocked over again, They didn't have a dock so they setup rollers and unloaded me by hand. 25 degrees and the wind was blowing hard, right into the trailer. I'd go out and watch them from time to time. It was way too cold for me. Thank God I could idle and stay warm. 3 hours later and they were done. These are the people that have to pay taxes to bailout the auto workers making $70 an hour, in a temperature controlled warehouse. Makes me so mad.
