[QUOTE="NaiveRapture, post: 449383, member: 19290"] In the beginning of peak when we first started having helpers I would only keep the helper for as long as my time card said (which, those times are WAY messed up anyways, my sheets lately have said things like 15.2 hours....). Now I just keep the helper as long as that person is willing to stay on the truck with me haha. I don't call and ask, I just do, and no one is complaining.There have been a few days this peak that I've had the most stops of all 95 drivers or however many we've had out there. If it takes me less than 12 hours they should just be glad for that haha. Does anyone know if you go over 12 hours if you show up on a report somewhere? I know if you go over 9.5 you show up on a report they run every night, but what are the ramifications of 12? The other night it was about 5 minutes before I would be at 12 hours and was about to clock out, and I asked my supe what would happen if I went over 12 hours and he told me some people have lost their jobs for it! I reminded him of what time it was and that in the time it took me to punch out my helper board and do my turn in, it was possible I would go over 12, then he just kind of stood there and went... "OK". I punched out at 11 hours and 59 minutes, just to be safe. [/QUOTE]
