[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 3471050, member: 58386"] Easily understood if it all pays the same and they get done about the same time. But if they're paid on a per diem basis who's going to want to be stuck out there in the middle of nowhere especially after dark not knowing when or even if a wrecker is going to make it out to them as well as what time of the day or night they'll even get there? It is for reasons such as this is why fewer people are willing to work on a per diem when whether you're out there for 8 hours or 14 it all pays the same. They see it as very unjust and it is. You could try paying on a stop basis but is that fair to the guy who only has 70 in his area while you're other guy has 120? Then again you could try a higher per stop rate for the lower volume guy to even it out but as sure as the sun comes up in the morning that higher stop count guy isn't going to put up with it because he'll believe that he's getting dissed ...... it's still an impossible situation anyway you look at it.
