Well, considering a proper DOT pre trip should take a minimum of 30 minutes, how pray tell do they think you could do everything including the pre trip, in 20 minutes?But linehaul doesn’t have those horrible lift gate deliveries and trailers being loaded almost completely backwards at times. Some guys just have to roll with it and can’t rework it at the terminal. Some TM’s really watch the “yard time” and don’t want to hear excuses. At SAIA you were expected to be off the yard in 30 minutes and that includes your pre-trip. They really want it in 20 minutes which is totally unrealistic. Total bull crap!
