While we are on the subject, we had a meeting at the building where the district sup was in attendance. One of the items under discussion was the overwhelming OT.
Donald, one of my fellow drivers made the statement that he was sure something was wrong with his digestive tract.
The district manager asked him what were the problems he had noticed.
Donald, without even blinking an eye said "well, when I have to go to the bathroom, I cant even form a turd anymore. I guess its where you all have friend%&#*d me so many times and for so long."
Well for about a week, they did get the OT down to less than 9 hours.
Anyway, sorry for derailing the thread.
I had one done 5-6 years ago, and none of it came out of my pocket. Not sure if the teamsters insurance paid it all or my wifes insurance paid a portion of it. But I never paid a dime.
What ever the cost, if you have any suspicions of something being wrong at the south end, getter checked out. And if the docs wont do it cheap enough, maybe your center manager will do it. After all, he spends most of his time on your ass?
Best of luck!
