[QUOTE="sortaisle, post: 494177, member: 17605"] I usually roll with "He's being lazy" or "It's his retirement practice week." I don't miss cover driving that much. I can't believe the difference a good loader makes though. As a cover driver, you really get to see who's a good loader and who isn't. When I show up and find out that I have a route with a poor loader, my day instantly slows up by at least half an hour. I do all of my methods, but I do occasionally hustle off my first 20 stops or so. I like to get ahead and then slow down toward the end of the day. Always pleasant with the customers whether they're nice or not. I don't drive with the bulkhead open. Although I have had a few cars with jinxy doors that you think latched and when you pull away come flying open again. I don't shut it at that point till my next stop because I don't want to stop in the middle of the street and I'd rather my concentration on the road. Never leave garbage in the car, but if the car is a sty, it stays that way. [/QUOTE]
