Question: when the $15 min wage goes into affect how will that effect our ability to hire and retain drivers?
Would love to know the source of that info. We just watched the company update video from Tobin and he made no mention of overtime. He did, however, mention a pay raise coming in June but nothing about overtime.After 45 hours we will get time and a half beginning April 18

As the years go on, finding drivers is going to get harder for companies to find qualified applicants. I’ve heard one of the Atlanta terminals sent 5 individuals off for a drug screening and all 5 failed.They had to one up estes when they changed there's to 52. But of coarse they said nobody will go past 50 so lets see what happens here.

I foresee a lot of companies having to one up other companies in order to get those drivers to choose there company. Kind of like in the housing market, it’s either a buyer or sellers market. I feel like with the way times are going in this industry, it’s a drivers market.
If they "depend" on 55-60 hours to stay afloat, they have a real problem.It’s great that leadership is going to pay ot. Never thought that would happen.
there is one major concern circulating right now among guys who regularly get 50+ hours a week. Will I be able to get more than 45 hours after the 18th? Some guys depend on 55-60 hours to stay afloat. Leadership needs to clarify that ASAP or I can guarantee you will have drivers looking for other options that can give them the needed income

I had a similar situation as a steward. Two drivers who had run together were given random drug tests at the destination, home, terminal. Both tested positive for Adderall.What insurance company wants to cover that liability? Fact: smoking weed impairs judgement. Test can’t discriminate between medicinal and recreational.
