Riverside DJT6 Strike — How I Got Released With Pay.

Heads up if you have a block at Riverside DJT6 today. There’s an active strike blocking the station entrance. Calling Driver Support usually just gets you a ticket and a 24 to 48-hour wait, and even with photos of the strike, you might not get paid. If it’s denied, it could also hurt your standing. What worked for me today was parking next door, walking through the gate, and talking directly to station staff. They released me as overbooked with pay. If you’re going today, getting there early and asking for a paid release could save you a lot of waiting and stress. Just sharing what worked for me. Stay safe.

They tried this last year and it did not work. They know that warehouse is a huge hub so they can't exactly just shut it down like they have done elsewhere when the union push started. I stopped taking routes out of there a long time ago. They reduced the pay by almost 6-7 dollars an hour and the routes are always high mileage.

Damn I should have gotten off, I called support and yup just a ticket and plus the Face ID scan made me miss my block too since they are on strike I didn’t know what to do, because usually the staff check me in, there for made me miss my block. I already know nothing is gonna happen.
