I probably do anywhere from 150-175 yards a week. Depends on the weather. I've had 3 weeks vacation so far this year so what's 49 times 150? 7350? Take off, say, another 100 yards for holidays. 7250. That's just a rough estimate. It could be a few hundred less than that. Some days I didn't take out ten yards on every delivery. Each driver's delivery record is stored on a computer so I guess I could find out my exact total.

For the year I have 8,632.25, me and two other guys got a 5 dollar bet on who does the most for the year, last year was 10,324.75...and thats at 70 hours a week. Oklahoma STATE law allows construction equipment to run that much.

yeah but what are company is saying is federal dot law says you cant not drive more than 60 hrs i would beleive that would include every one in the U.S Are saftey director says we cannot work more than 60 hrs i would have to look at the federal d.o.t regulations to see if thats true because we think it's a bunch of B.S. just for the fact i thought that was for over the road truck drivers that drive all day and night . And if it is true federal law has more authority than state law so state law would still wouldn't work for us anyways

We have looked into it very carefully, we are doing it by the book. Our company just turned 100 years old this year and they have no reason to try and skirt the law. I just get more time to pour more mud...

yeah i seen that i wanna try to print it off but my printer doesn't work right now all of are plants just got a letter of violations we recieved for working over 60 hrs and working more than 14 hrs in a day i just think that are saftey director is a D**K because i think if it was for the company's advantage to work over 60 hrs we probably wouldn't here any thing about it but as slow as we are i think there using that rule so we cant get any over time over 60 hrs. But yeah our company got's it set in stone basically that we cant work over 60 hrs because it's the ((LAW))... |

sometimes i drive from local plant = no waste time on movement from plant to plant.
other times i spent 1-2 hours on transport before ewen starting.
but in general some where between 310yrds to 380yrds pr week.

My company does not tell the drivers how much they pour in a year, but then again I don't think any one has ever asked. It seems I always get the small orders. I do between 2-4 loads a day, my personal record is 6 loads. The other day I did 5 loads but only deliver 7.5 YDS. I get all the home owners because I don't complain, a load is a load. A few of my fellow drivers cant stand the home owners. I love it, I usually get tips for being helpful. I'll get out out of the truck and give em' a hand. Plus you get to decide on the slump! But I don't thing I have done the yardage like a few guys here. I start keeping count. |
