How long does it take to get your own route at your hub?

[bottomups]

when i do bid a route it is going to be a rural route 70-80 stops/day, 170 miles or so, with a few on area pickups. So by the time i do finally get a route like this i'll have a year or 2 until i retire ha. I'm all set doing a bull-run/idustrial route 5 days a week for years on end. i'd rather wait.

Took me years to finally get my retirement route and I ain't going to give it up.
This would be a typical day along with 150 to 180 miles.
Paid day is around 11 hours but rarely work over 9 except when the weather is bad.
Cover drivers fight over this route as its almost like being on vacation.
