    Are you happy about your new hourly pay, overtime pay after 40? I know local drivers are making 25 to 30 bucks an hour. Are you excited to make 45 bucks an hour overtime pay? I guess they're going to get rid of detention pay.

    GW didn't have anything to do with it. Truck drivers are exempted from OT pay by the Fair Labor Standards Act and have been for as long as I have had anything to do with this industry. U.S. Department of Labor - Wage and Hour Division (WHD) - Fact Sheet
     
    ExOTR Thanks this.

    We all have other things that are far more important than this issue, so if we get together it will be important that effects all of us, not just a small minority.
