Hello All,
Is anyone else out there a delivery driver Tuesday through Friday, but does trailer shifting on Saturday mornings? If so, does your center work with you to give you a light load on Friday so you can get out early to make it a little easier to come in early Saturday morning? When I signed the bid for the position I was under the impression that DOT rules would apply and I would be required to have 10 hours off between shifts. The center manager (who was less than pleased I signed and got the bid) is now telling me that DOT rules do not apply here because the shifting is done on property and I'm not actually going on road.
I'm concerned about my ability to do this job safely if my center is going to bury me on a Friday so I get out late, and then have to be back at 3:30 the following morning.
