[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 2840230, member: 58386"] There is currently a bill in Congress that for all intents and purposes to abolish many if not all OT provisions.As for a competent vs. incompetent drivers you can't just pull something off the rack send him out there and expect him to be able to immediately and completely replicate the performance of a person who has been on that route for 20 years. You guys at express obviously can see the intent of the 10 years vs. 10 step wage ladder. If it looks like the profit plan is in danger of not being met raises can lawfully be delayed by means of the "10 step" pay progression.As for Ground. My state has recently completed the full conversion to ISP . As expected ISP contractors have nearly doubled the stop and coverage area requirements of their drivers and given that most if not all are on per diems their days are much longer and hours are maxed out primarily due to the fact that the entire formula is blind to the RD carrier miles that saturate rural zip codes. All for the same money and in most cases no benefits of any kind. [/QUOTE]
