[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 55138"] We all know there are tons of "two hours overallowed " drivers under innacurate standards, especially since Diadgate. [img]http://browncafe.com/discus2/clipart/biggrin.gif[/img] Why worry about handling them in regards to something as petty as 8 hour requests. If the driver is truly 2 hours over allowed then ride with them, train them where they need to improve or fire them for dishonesty if they are scratch with the supervisor and two hours over alone. The contract states a driver requesting 8 hours is to be relieved from work after 8 hours, period. It doesn't say "as long as he has a great day" or "if things go bad that day or the weather is terrible the driver is required to work over 8 hours and the request is voided". It says 8 hours, period. You get the driver out in 8 hours. [b]If[/b] the driver is screwing the company, that is an entirely different issue and the company is fully within it's rights, nay, obligation to rid itself and the workforce of a dishonest employee. Just don't use the possibility as a smokescreen for violating all the driver's rights regarding the contract. Specifically in this instance, their right to an official 8 hour request day. [/QUOTE]
