Yellow | How much OT.......

Docksteward said:
I have had a couple guys come up to me, mad because "the company" won't let them get off from work early, or something similar. They get mad and say something like....."and I work all of that OT for them, too"......Well as long as RDWY is paying you the appropriate wages, they don't owe you anything, just your 40. Get into some trouble...it won't matter how much OT you worked, they will try to fire you just as quick as a guy on ART. 46!! DS.

And when you tell some of them this they just look at you in disbelief.

Great example. Whatever you did yesterday, does not matter. What's the saying?? "From Hero to Zero in a split second". I get satisfaction in doing a good job but I know it really doesn't matter to the powers that be!! DS.

"OH BOY" He's Special had them stand up about 10 jiffs in a big box without supposely chocking them in cause they were short on equipment @671. I was waiting to hear a report on I-85 around the 186 marker about 10 jiff's rolling out the back of the trailer onto the interstate and all ten jiffs coming to a resting place at the bottom of Lake Gaston :poster_oops: :rofl:

Yeah whats up with those mirror lights , I think he listens to too much ART BELL @ night like he is waiting for the next alien sighting or calling:hysterical:
