Wantabe question about layover pay

Starts from the time you are on the board.

You must remain on the board.

Go over 48 hrs until the next dispatch you get $60

Now up to $75 though or on 22nd... I forget...

Add 75 for each 24 hrs after that.


If you have a good on terms fm he will not dispatch you until your appointment time. Could be the difference between getting paid or another day.

You sit 2days here for free.

It sucks.... -.-

When are you supposed to be asleep?

Stay up for two straight days?

 

If you are worried about layover pay then you are working for the wrong company

 

I can say I have only had 4 layovers not involving some sort of mechanical crap.

1on easter In knoxville
1on thanksgiving(actually didn't mind this one) Crockett Texas
1on a non holiday weekend in the Utah desert.
1 during a non holiday week down by corpus Christi

 

Most companies do not pay layover or breakdown pay for Sunday either. Not sure about Conway.

 

They does.

 

I had at least 1 a month -- usually something like a 1000 mile load on Thursday that delivered Monday. Of course there were also a number of times I sat 48+ hours waiting for a delivery appointment, but was denied layover because they go by 45mph dispatch speed and not when you actually show up.

 

Well if we are gonna go by dy standards.

I've had 5000000000009millionthousand layovers.


I'd rather sit an entire day than have a 300 mile live on both ends. That's just me though.

And yes.

A few otr companies will give you a 20 or something as soon as you hit the first dock.
