[QUOTE="Cementups, post: 3062615, member: 8590"] And back in the day there was a long wait for package car AND feeder drivers. In my building we can't get guys to go from inside to driving. So much so that we have been hiring feeder drivers off the street. So now a days you don't HAVE to "pay your dues." I personally think it's better if you have done other more physical jobs within UPS so you can appreciate truly what an opportunity it is to be able to be a feeder driver. It does irritate me a little that younger drivers give me crap about coming out to feeders and bumping them down a spot in seniority. They don't think it's "fair". But to oppose that thought, how is it "fair" that some 21 year old kid gets hired, puts in his 30 days and then signs the feeder intent list and is making $40k+ (1st year at 40 hours/week) without putting in a real effort in the company. But in the end, we all use the opportunities that are given to us. [/QUOTE]
