EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

Even the greatest trucking companies mess you over with hours. Local or OTR is the same. Surely DS has complained.

:hugs

:lau "Strong winds and a few tornados will be expected today. But good news! We will not be expecting much rain with this weather. Only10 or 15 minutes!"

I spoke to soon, another storm rolling through, this ones dropping a little rain.

ETA. Stay safe, Abi!
 
Yes, I have discussed this with them more than once. I even pointed out the fact that we don't ever work 40 hours. Sarcastically to someone not management I said so are the other 20 hours voluntary, does that mean I can go home after 8 hours when I want to? Of course not.
The only reply from True management was well we don't have to give you overtime totally missing the point that we always work around sixty plus hours and it's not voluntary. So are vacation checks are about 60% of a normal check.
Obviously, that's not a union shop. I don't like unions for the most part, but one would certainly be a help in this case.
Have you checked any further into jumping ship for another outfit, or they all pretty much the same in that area?

Yeah, I know. I heard pretty much the same thing from my son. Schneider screwed him over so he walked. Drove for a feed company here for a while, then went to work for Tax Air when he moved to WI. Drove for them for 14 years, got tired of them messing with his pocketbook, and quit them in favor of UNFI; better pay, & a terminal just across town from where he lives, rather than having to drive to Madison every night to pick up his truck. Only downside is now he has to unload himself.

Screw everything down tight & wait it out. Doesn't sound too bad :fl
