[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 430772, member: 484"] that might be true where you are. 1 in 10. that would make it 10%. here, there are a ton of dhl drivers. something that will hurt us is the ability to take samples from labs that dhl currently handles. last i heard, ups will not take samples? i know that several of the companies that my wife works with only use dhl. much more accomadating to their schedule. not like ups where we make the delivery and pick up when we damn well please, and the customers schedule is given second place in planing routes. one more thing. in our center of about 100 delivery drivers, there are about 40% that were planning to retire in the next 3 years. 10-13 in 2009. 9 have already said they will not retire because of the losses to the 401K's, finacncial unrest/concern etc. this means that part timers that could go full time will have to wait even longer, and drivers that would have stayed in delivery will be kicked back to working split shifts. the change as been all due to what has happened in the last 2 months. all these things will have a trickle down effect d [/QUOTE]
