If I had people working for me, I'd prob pay after they got back to the shop...once they get back, they can maintain the vehicles/equipment and re-fuel it for morning.

your buddy is a rat. unless he pays by the job. If its by the hour then it seems silly to me to quit paying an employee when he still has to take the truck back to the shop, unload equipment, etc, all part of the J.O.B

I agree and I'm surprised he can get the employees to drive the truck and equipment back to the shop.

as far as I'm concerned if I were working for someone my work ends for the day when I stop getting paid for the day. I'd be arranging for someone to pick me up from my last stop of the day if that were the case. leave the truck right in front of the property I last finished.

it's not just silly I would think its illegal.

Paid to get back to shop and on the click till all of end of day work is done. I would think if they have to drive/ride back to the shop off the clock problems might arise such as speeding, unauthorized stops etc

This is by far one of the stupidest questions I have ever read on here. Congratulaions for reaching the upper echelon of ******ness. Do you really expect even a half decent worker to stay on with that BS?
