That is an old old trick not paying for driving time. Next trick is they start charging you for replacing tools that are worn out such as rake handles, plastic shovels, axes, sledges and the like.

My 10 years in the yellow trucks

It's like any other big company. They're there to make money and that's fine. It really depends on the local management and crews. I met some great people there and learned a lot about climbing, pruning, ipm, etc etc. The labs are great and the dr's down there are fun guys amd very helpful.
Overall a good ten years

You don't think about that when you are young and gullible and need a job badly.
