[QUOTE="Brown287, post: 676621, member: 14940"] I'm the feeder for my centers satellite center, and I too have thought to myself how this is profitable. However to answer a few questions, when there is a vacation the cover driver is told ahead of time and must report to the satellite location in their own vehicle. Only on sick calls which are last minute things can someone ride down with me. And as far as long hours, yes once in a blue moon they work long days, but for the most part these are all NO over time routes. When the decision first came down that we were making satellite routes my route was the primary satellite due to my route having the most miles, but once they discovered that I had two bulk stops that would not fit in the pup, I went from being a satellite to being the feeder. This sucked for me because I too live in the town I deliver and thought my commute days were over. Besides that they were very clear about one thing, these routes were now remotes regardless of what any of us thought. Management was angered more then we were but like stated before this came from the top and that was just the way it was going to be. [/QUOTE]
