[QUOTE="HomeDelivery, post: 1201892, member: 33696"] it's definitely a gray area; i consider it a perk and not working if i have an extended service area ~ my contractor says it's optional if you want to go straight home with the package car Vs. wasting extra time going back to the hub & commuting to your home in the personal car... true, i already known 2 people that DQed out doing what you're doing ~ but not including the commute time as actual on-duty (they will go over 14 hours without adding that). i've also known a few others that doesn't live close to the extended service areas to quit on the spot or at least with one weeks notice. they'll most likely get another "PT Barnum" candidate to fill in & [B]FALSIFY[/B] on-duty/off-duty times, just for a steady income. the key point for that contractor is to find a driver that lives close to the service area. Ground is tougher since you need to bring in those pickups at night, while HD can wait until the next morning's audit... unlike what Nick is blabbering about in another thread, the economy is still in the toilet & i'm still seeing an influx of over-qualified temp drivers coming into the terminal for this peak season. slight off-topic: i saw an opening for temp drivers for brown; is it too late for me to switch over? at this time i probably won't go to a full-service integrad school [/QUOTE]
