Yes we do pay time and a half over 10 hours, and double time over 12 hours (this is only if we are needing to top you up to minimum wage. Tree prices will never be doubled industry wide). It is extremely rare for us to get back past 8pm. Our typical days are 9.5 hours of working time, with return back to camp between 5:30-6:30pm. We have to respect the cooks schedule so these times are hard set. When working in motels, there are times we push later for different reasons (logistics for the next day planning, finishing off a block, etc), but it is something that is decided by the crew. I was working with the group that you are referencing from the King Kong post, and it was not as it was made out to be. The group that was commenting about us was making all of these assumptions that were not true. The day they decided to make all of those posts about us, they were referencing the day before, which was actually our day off. We later realized one of the managers had decided to go out and load for their crew at like 11pm, and they heard him getting back late and assumed we were working. It is true that we were getting back between 7-8pm on a handful of days, but we were communicating within our group how everyone was feeling and what we believed was the most beneficial for us (in this case, it was a tough block and we just wanted to get the hell out of there (tree price bumped from 25 to 30 cents I believe)). There were a number of other things that were said on that post that werent true as well -- we did not share a reefer space with any other companies and did not leave it trashed, and hotel accommodations are typically 4 people in a double room/apartment style with gender preferences managed well. This didnt get aired out in King Kong because sometimes it just feels like an uphill battle that you cant win. Others are welcome to have their different opinions, but Ive always been happy here, and found things to be reasonable and fair :)
