[QUOTE="TooTechie, post: 1372448, member: 28388"] It is based on hours worked--not hours a computer or a PDS thinks will be an 8 hour day. He's just saying if they in good faith significantly reduced your dispatch but it took you the same amount of time it normally takes, the union would ask the driver what special circumstances they encountered that extended the day. I would personally have a hard time filing if I could see they legitimately tried to give me an 8 hour dispatch. Last week I came in and saw they barely reduced my dispatch and gave them the opportunity to fix it in the morning. They had me punch in a couple minutes early and pull off a couple bulk and air stops during PCM which worked out to exactly an 8 hour day. Every driver is different. I personally take them regularly to get a little relief from long days to see my little guy and schedule them on the day I usually get hammered the worst...but yeah there are guys who use them just to mess with management.
