My co is really lighting a fire under my ass about getting moving within 15 mins of the seal being applied to the trailor and getting to the destination terminal 'on time'. They wont tell me what my etas are however unless i call in and specifically ask. My ETAs are calculated at 50mph allowing for a 15min break on longer runs, but i do not know what the guideline is...Our trucks only run 65mph at best...a 50mph av. means no delays whatsoever, no traffic, no construction zones-only open road, right?
If I have hazmat i should really be checking stuff over closely and be sure the loads are secured right (they never are). Do I have time for that? Not really, I guess I could do what I have to, then call in and let them know what my delay was b4 leaving out....This is the best job Ive ever had, just these issues are a problem...Suggestions??
