Nough said.
It's killing me having to pull 3 trailers back from the hub to my center instead of 2. Hope I can hang on for 13 more days.
With an attitude like that you have lost before you have started.
Peak is 20 days this year. The first week wasn't too bad but this week has been heavier. My helper is awesome and I have punched out at about the same time that I normally do each day. Weather has not been an issue on my area (yet).
We had a driver retire 12/1 and are down another driver this week due to his father passing away so staffing has been an issue. We will have everyone back on Monday and they will be adding a few more routes, which should help.
One stop at a time and before you know it you are punched out and gone.

Your center is down 2 drivers at peak and you are still getting off at the same time you normally do? Sounds to me like you aren't doing your fair share of the extra work----but then again you have always said you look out for nobody but yourself.
"Peak" is the best time of year. Management occasionally even gives you a pat on the back when you work hard, customers are generally a bit more forgiving and thankful, preloaders get a nice tip from the generous drivers Things are just different for that two-three weeks that actually make the job slightly satisfying.
