Sounds like counting chickens b\4 the eggs hatch..

First thing, they aren't wasting time with worthless safety meetings and tests.

 

[Dockworker]

I’m hearing most national accounts have been renegotiated.

Rates have also been raised on most and raised on undesired freight.
UPS is responsible for paying any claims prior to our adoption.
Etc….
We are still getting on road safety observations.

Yep, I saw one of your drivers wearing a bowtie and steel-toed flip-flops.

Our daily bill count is down. We have city drivers sitting home everyday.

We are forced 12-14 hour days in the streets . Could use another 3-4 city drivers .

We haven’t been able to hire anyone. They have had to use cartage up until several weeks ago. Now the bill count is down it’s a new game.

 

[Gater]

Because they are cutting routes we are getting 8-12 hours a day.

Could you let me know if you're being asked to do logs if over 12 hrs; i think we got rid of this policy. See my other thead for more info:

TForce | - Not required to fill out logs if under 14 hours on-duty.

You are aware that per the new HOS rules in effect Sept. 29, 2020 we DO NOT have to fill out a log unless we go over 14 hours on duty? Whereas, previously it was 12 hours, and i think our company wanted it after 11.5 because they consider lunch "on duty" for log purposes? (not sure about...
