I have been getting unloaded since 01:00 and was suppose to be at my second stop at 03:30, it is now 04:13 and I am still at stop 01. Eh really nothing I can do lol my clock will run dry in 3 more hours so if this store picks up the pace I'll make it to stop 02 really late lol and let the clock run out there and hope they let me do a 10 hour reset while docked. Note to self decline load if this store is in the delivery haha

Dock workers get paid by the hour, and not very much at that. They do not understand or even CARE about your predicament. It is my understanding that it has been an issue in Trucking for DECADES! I saw an article on the front page of one of the Trucker newspapers at a TS about this very issue. I sure hope the Federal Beauracracy gets involved to "Fix" it like they "Fixed" the HOS Regulations!

HOS:

Hours Of Service

HOS refers to the logbook hours of service regulations.

Then an underpaid Rent a Cop will come and tell you that you have to leave.
