[QUOTE="FedExRookie, post: 1251344, member: 44400"] We had a long 'discussion' here about that, well as good as a discussion as you can get on this forum, and no one could cite any sources stating calling in is illegal. Some states have specific laws against it; however, if your state does not have laws against it there is almost nothing you can do. I'm to lazy to search for the thread or google the information. It was something along the lines of (with some follow up I did on my own)... 'on-call' - From what I gathered you get paid if you are at work waiting for work. So if a CTV is 1 hour behind, you are 'on call' until the CTV is arrive and are paid. If you have to physically show up to find out your schedule, assuming there is no way to find out without showing up, you are on call. If the station/ramp/hub made the employee physically go onto the property, the employee would be 'on the company's premises' and would fall under 'on call' and would have to be compensated. Since they are having you *cough, your friend* call to find out if you have to go in, you don't have to wait on the company's property, you are not on call. I emailed the closest office via the dol.gov website since no one could cite anything legitimate. So unless that state has a SPECIFIC law regarding it, it is 100% legal. [/QUOTE]
