Praktisch gegen kurze Meilen

Bekanntgegeben auf 28-08-2005

Darunter eingeordnet (LKW-Transport - Industrie)

Gerade eine schnelle Anmerkung, zum jeder zu erinnern, eine welche kurze Meile und eine praktische Meile ist. Eine kurze Meile ist, was die meisten Firmen zahlen und ist ein fast unmöglicher Weg, damit ein LKW fährt. Treiber fahren praktische Meilen und LKW-Firmen und -vermittler zahlen kurze Meilen. Ein normalerweise ungefähr 10-Prozent-Unterschied.

Kreta, zum Treibern der praktischen Weg-Meilen zu zahlen

Die änderung an den praktischen Wegmeilen ist beim Anfang des steuerlichen Jahres der Kreta Fördermaschine an Okt. wirksam. 1. Z.Z. das Lincoln, Neb., - gegründete Firma zahlt seinen Treibern industriekompatible kurze Wegmeilen.
Ostergard sagte, daß der Schalter zu den praktischen Wegmeilen zu mitteilen genauer Verpflichtung der Kreta Fördermaschine an seine Treiber gebildet wurde. Die änderung beeinflußt die 5.600 Treiber, die entweder vorbei oder Vertrag mit Kreta Fördermaschine beschäftigt werden.
„Obwohl, praktische Wegmeilen ist zu zahlen nicht der Standard in unserer Industrie, wir vornahm diese änderung mit den besten Interessen unserer Treiber am Verstand,“ gesagtes Ostergard. „Wenn wir `sagen, gibt es keine Abkürzungen' an der Kreta Fördermaschine, wir bedeuten sie.“

Das Problem ist, daß es ist industriekompatibel. Es ist ein Standard zur Gaunerei die Treiber und Inhaberoperatoren und -es sind das größte scam, welches die „Industrie“ auf uns verübt. Und Kreta gibt ein Pressekommuniquã# heraus, um jeder zu erklären, das sie schließlich die rechte Sache tun. Es ist nicht ihre Störung, die sie gewesen der Kurzschluß haben, der ihre Treiber für Jahre ändert und Jahre, ist er industriekompatibel, ist es Industrie Störung. Grosse Firmen mögen diese Marke die Industriestandards und übrigens, bilden sie mich krank zu meinem Magen.

Die letzte Last, die ich den Vermittler nahm, erklärte mir, meine Reise 850 Meilen war, saß ich an meinem Laptop, der das Wegprogramm betrachtet ich verwende und ich fragte sie, daß ob die „kurze Meilen“ war, überprüfte sie und es war. Ich sagte, „meine Antriebe des LKW nur praktischen Meilen.“ Sie justierte ihr Programm, um darzustellen, daß praktische Meilen und es ein 50 Meile Unterschied, sich vorstellen das waren? Ein Unterschied von $94, aber es sind ein „industriekompatibles“. Diese Leute möchten für etwas anschlagen, das niemand wie Kraftstoffpreise steuern können? Wie ungefähr industriekompatibel Mist mögen dieses???

No offense sir, But i think your a little nuts if you don’t think a strike would drive down full prices. if you like it or not. we have a president who is friends with a saudi king. thats why prices are going up and staying in my opinion. the bushes make money off of high fuel cost. I really do think if American Truck drivers shut down for a week. the president would be hey pal to the king and the prices would drops just like that. we all have our views and I know what your saying but yours raises the cost of living in america. you know as well as i do that getting the trucking industy to pay more to o/o is just a vicious circle of price increase’s that hit the consumer. no hard feelings sir and have a nice day…chad

Better the consumer than us! A strike won’t work because we would all have to do it and that’s not going to happen. Second, any price drop that did happen because of a strike would only be temporary. Rising prices for fuel and insurance and tires is a fact of doing business. Adjust your rates accordingly and stay in business.

France did it, There is only one way to do a strike. Shut the trucks down in the middle of the road. The GW bridge would be a choice spot, I-80/I-94 Chicago, I-10 at I-5 in Los Angelos. This would definately raise a brow. How about Lets just all run the scales all the time. Its not a moving violation but it would get some attention and most of us (99.99%)would get away with it. Kinda be like a school of mullet swimming by a Lobster. One or two of us might get pinched but they aint gonna eat us. Lets say we did “shut down”. What would we ask for? How about lets get the trucking industry in line with the rest of the working world. HOURLY WAGES for the employees(Company drivers) With the true hours I work I would make $500 a week at minumum wage. There is a few jobs out there that pay hourly and they are not minimum wage. Let a labor arbitrator decide what is fair compensation. I wouldn’t do it for less than $18 an hour.

The O/O is saying What about me. Just think what would happen to freight rates if all company drivers was put on hourly wages. Win/Win!!!!!!!!!!

If it would be stressed that this is our goal. Hourly wages..Would I abide by DOT regulations. You can bet on it. Would the highways be safer?

Now, fuel prices and the rest. This is The United States. Capitalist = supply and demand. If we shut down like the french there would be an over abundance of fuel. 1 day of shut down would back the refineries up tremendously. Hourly Wages would give a result in less miles driven and less fuel being consumed until the demand had risen again.

Ok…While I’m still searching out the matter regarding “Practical” miles, I STILL can’t see what the difference is?!?!

Ok, ok…they’re “supposed” to be more than the HHG (DUH)…they’re NOT hub, yet WHAT ARE THEY!?!?! In other words, how are “Practical” miles determined?

The “old way” usually results in getting 3 different miles as far as counting when you finish a load…you’ve got #1 DISPATCHED miles. #2 ROUTED miles, and #3 ACTUAL miles driven. And MOST of the time the “actual” is the highest number.

Even if one were to take Mapquest for a “standard” it would be better than HHG, or the miles noted in your atlas.

Oh well…time will tell (I THINK?!), as the company I drive for has wet our appetite telling us in a voice mail that we’re goin’ to PRACTICAL MILES in the near future.

Many companies however will always say the next change is to benefit employees, and only hope this will! I guess we can compare the identical run with the new PRACTICAL miles figuring as all of this unfolds.

Most trucking routing programs include options for either HHG or Truck Shortest or Truck Practical. PC Miler has come out with a Hazmat routing option. Try etrucker.com to check out truck routing.

Practical miles are closer to what you are going to actually drive. They could also be called “quickest” in some (car) routing programs. As a general rule of thumb the difference between short and practical is about 10%.

Using Promiles, a competitor of PC Miler, From Las Vegas, NV to Wichita, KS Practical is 1267, routing is from I-15 - 70, south on I-135 to Wichita. Using the “Truck Shortest” option is 1171, routing is south on 93 (over the dam, which you can’t do), east on I-40 then to Wichita on US-54. Which isn’t a bad road, but it’s a lot of two lane and small towns.

Hub miles or actual miles would include getting lost or going out of route to go home or driving around in circles, most companies aren’t going to pay for that.

Practical is the closest to reality as we are going to get and about the only difference between Practical and actual is going to be the few miles driving in town to your pick-up or delivery. Depending on the company or dispatcher even the practical miles can go from the center of town to the center of town or you can go from zip code to zip code which would even closer to reality.

Dispatch miles are usually HHG or Shortest miles option in PC Miler

Depending on you pick-up and drop-off you may not notice a big difference every single trip, but overall there is a big difference.

WHAT BOTHER ME THE MOST IS THAT I HAVE TO WORK FOR FREE 10% I DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW TRUCKING COMPANIES CAN GET AWAY WITH IT, IS THERE ANY LEGAL ACTION THAT TRUCKERS CAN TAKE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM, IS THERE ANY LAWYER THAT CAN TAKE OUR CASE??
