[QUOTE="WorknLateHuh, post: 1114833, member: 44056"] Made it a point to go out blind on lots of the easy cushy routes when i started. It payed off because the majority of the time they keep me on these with the exception of a handful of "meh" routes that they trained me on. No mall routes, no industrial routes, no downtown mayhem, and no insane bull run routes. Granted... those routes have their perks and some drivers prefer them, but certainly not me. Give me a rural route with 100-120 stops, 200-250 pieces and 5 pckups. So i have no problem staying on cover until something nice opens up. That's not to say that cover doesn't have it's headaches because there's a sea of them. to name a few that come to mind... -- where you're going every morning is a mystery -- dealing with different trucks everyday... no dolly, no gas, no bags, random suprises, and my least favorite... trash all over the place. -- lowered familiarity with area, people, dogs, and companies. -- It's more difficult to settle into a routine when you cover 15-20 routes.
