[QUOTE="raceanoncr, post: 617612, member: 6408"] I guess one problem I have with this one is...why do you communicate to run from CHP checkpoints? Are you driving with safety violations? If so, you shouldn't be driving it at all. You will not get disciplined for refusing to drive anything that is not safe, according to DOT. You run by the mile? When you get stopped, you go on the clock, right? I know, you're gonna say that you hafta give the first hour but it has been grieved many times and won that if you have to be in control of that machine for any reason, then you are on the clock. It ain't like yer sitting at a turn point just waiting. If you're at a check point, you're on log time, right? On-duty-not driving? Well, then you get paid. You got families to get home to. Well, we all do. But this is a job and we signed up for it. I've been on the parcel side for over 31 yrs now and there has been no family action for all of those 31 years except what you make it. Sorry, but as previous poster said, these are rough economic times. Many people would love to be stuck at a check point making ANY $ right now. My advice: Chill out. Do the job the way UPSF wants you to do it. You know what? You'll make more money than you could ever imagine and have more peace of mind. Now, flame on!! [/QUOTE]
