[QUOTE="paidslave, post: 289559, member: 10762"] I had the same problem with the 8 hour request....I didn't get fired but they didn't like me bringing back 50 stops afterI worked my 8 hours. I totally agree your daughter was way more important than your 8 stops and what help is a greivance when your daughter is stranded? [B]That is why the langauge in the contract doesn't help much[/B]....Big deal you get double time for that extra hour instead of time and a half. It is not about the money...........The language needs to be changed so you [U][B]can't get disciplined for 8 hour requests[/B][/U] You should be able to leave no matter what after 8 hours, as long as you give your best to get it done, in this time and are not screwing off! Your dispatch, the supervisor should be written up and maybe the source will be revealed!! Put some of the burden on the company because apparently they give a crap about the language! Bottom line is language definately needs re-wording! Working as instructed should not be an applicable form of discipline for 8 hour request in this situation because the Management team takes advantage of this language....(.Working as instructed),,,,,,[B]this is why I chose the name PAIDSLAVE![/B] Good luck and come back. I am sure lots of drivers would be interested what happened :happy-very:! [/QUOTE]
