[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 603671, member: 18708"] since he's gone, and not answering any questions, BBAGs tale certainly was interesting. BBAG went from PT on the local sort, saying "I will be a full-time driver in no time". Most of us chuckled and tried to give him wise words of advice. That #1 it wasn't a permanent position, that #2 buying mgnt coffee and donuts and sucking :censored: would not be appropriate and #3 to relax on the bragging and egotism. BBAG eventually did begin cover driving, as a casual seasonal driver. He likely covered vacations, did misc routes and duties. He bragged and bragged " Yes, see I did become a driver in less than a year, it CAN be done!, har har" The problem was, he would never make book as a FT driver and all he was doing was setting himself up for disaster. Running lunches, trying to suck up (coffee and donuts), would go nowhere with the company and union. Just like all of us, we all had to wait our turn. Now with this latest termination for driving on a suspended fiasco, and other issues that have come up, it's basically time for him to hang it up (which I told him months ago). Unless of course he wanted to work the local sort, or try again as a part-time casual cover driver and TRULY wait his turn ;which of course is something he never considered doing to begin with. So moral to the story ; if you are a union new hire just chomping at the bit to go driving, you MAY go driving. [b]BUT chances are extremely low to nil that a new hire will see the money or make seniority sooner than at least several years of part-time slavery.[/b] So get in line and earn those stripes. :biting: [/QUOTE]
