I was talking with with a driver from another terminal when he asked how long I've been with OD when I replied eight years he asked if I was looking forward to getting three weeks vacation this year,I was under the impression that it took ten years to reach three weeks vacation as spelled out in our employee manual,when I asked my T/M if this was correct he said the vacation policies had been changed several years ago,all good news but its left me wondering if OD's ever going to update the manuals,the newest ones we have seem to have been written in the mid-nineties with outdated info including terminals that no longer exist and policies for situations that no longer exist.Since drivers are required have these manuals with them while on duty it seems like it would be a good idea to have recent information in them.

They actually gave one out to us a couple of years ago, but it was written in Acme disappearing reappearing ink...
 
What are you guys talking about? After I drive my 10 hours I take 8 off just like the book says! Lol yeah it's old but I haven't used it before anyways so I'm not to worried. Asked once in my 7 years about a new one but the manager at that time was a joke so no luck.
 
Yes,I made the comment last week to some that it's about time they update..I got a new book from Safety a couple month's ago.Really didn't see much in the new one except the add'd term's compared to my 9 yr. old book
It'd be nice if they made their way out to the hinterlands.
