[QUOTE="over9five, post: 460018, member: 1401"] I have nothing to add to all this great advice, so I will re-emphasize: I have been in Feeders about 16 months, and the biggest challenge for me was [B]losing the Package driver frame of mind. [/B]I still have it and have to fight it every day, but lesser as time goes by. In Feeders, delays happen, there's nothing you can do about them, and you can not try to make the time up. And in Feeders, no-one ever asks why it took you so long to do whatever. Safety[I] is[/I] Job 1 in Feeders. Any kind of weather, even just rain, makes your job 5 times harder. As a Feeder driver you don't just drive for you, you drive for everyone else around you. My New Years resolution is "I will be more accommodating to morons". I took the UPS Feeder school. It was alright, but done the UPS way, 4 Saturdays. Passed my CDL on the 3rd try. I learned sooo much more in my 40 hr unproductive. Sup was great, really knew how to drive, not just by reading a book. Listen and learn from that sup on your 40 hr! Good luck, and keep us informed! [/QUOTE]
