Here is how to get out of working 70 hours a week.
First establish an LLC in your name.
Second get a vehicle and have it designated commercial.
Third pretend you run a delivery service and log some hours/miles. Example. You delivered a pie your wife made to a relatives house for a fee of $1.
Fourth make sure to log hours within official DOT guidelines. This will be important for tax purposes. It's also important to let your family members and friend know that way you have an alibi if DOT wants to check out your business.
Fifth now that you've read all of this and wasted your time thinking this would actually work.....please come back to earth because your
ed like the rest of us unless the union does something.
Congratulations you are a sucker.

I'm a shareholder. You take all the time you need.
Hopefully it won't be a strike.

I thought he was going to tell us the story of why his wife calls him Stumpy. Guess it's not because he lost a hand.

Uber isn't contained by DOT laws. At least last time I checked they weren't. There was a big lawsuit about it

But we are, and under ours any paid work performed counts towards your reset and weekly hours.

that's true but they don't adhere to those rules because they think they need to help the company.
I have seen supes violate DOT regs dozens of times at our Reno hub because of all the snowstorms, drivers running out of hours, and so forth.
some of them brag about working 24 straight hours or more and when i called them on the violations they say......"we do what we have to do."
just more BS.

grey area?????
there should be no grey area.
it's simple math. and it's a federal law. UPS can not supercede the feds.

I posted this earlier. If some of you flowers are too delicate, take an extra hour before or two of meal and sleep during your 14.
If you're as exhausted as you claim it won't be an issue falling asleep. Drivers do it all the time in feeders. If management bitches tell them you felt unsafe to drive.

Package Car is cake compared to this...
Oh, okay. I guess the DOT doesn't apply to package car drivers. Curious, then why there is such a fuss about the DOT rule of 70/8, which is a DOT rule. But Brownslave knows best.

Why anyone would even think of working 14 hours straight with no break is beyond me.

It doesn't matter, apparently, because the law doesn't apply to package car drivers.

You've yet to explain how it's breaking DOT law.
You're allowed to work up to 14 hours a day (actually you can work more you just can't drive after 14) 14x5=70.
I mean this is really simple stuff.

Depends on the route. I've done a few rural routes that I can do with pretty easy with only taking my 10 paid. Which means you'd be paid for every second of the day

You're a feeder driver and you've proven you don't understand how the lay applies to package. So why not just stick with what you know......feeders.
