    When I was at that other company we were told “just don’t go over 15 minutes over, we know sometimes you’ll have to push”.
    Rarely did I ever go over, but a few times I had the Qualcomm screaming at me while I was backing into a spot. Could I have stopped earlier? Yes, but I would have forfeited the time, and had to get up earlier the next morning, etc, etc.

    Can’t give you a good answer about that, but I did the math and seen I wasn’t gonna make it to the truck stop I wanted to 2 hours away and had to pull it over for the night
