[QUOTE="retiredTxfeeder, post: 1505883, member: 52978"] I stayed on the same area my entire 9 years in package. Never had any inclination to be a cover driver. I went into feeders my first peak and came back to my center in January. They had given my area to a split driver and told me I didn't have center seniority anymore, or an area for that matter. They put me on a blind route in spite of my protests. I'll be the first to admit I'm "new route challenged" I started calling the center for help about 10am and called about every 30 minutes thereafter. This was back when they gave you a package car full of packages and a map, along with a pickup log. I failed miserably. Several drivers had to come help, and If I remember correctly, I brought a mess of stuff back. The next day I had my old area back. The guy who had been running it for 3 or so months complained, but he was promised it back as soon as I went back into feeders. It was the best solution to the situation in the end. I went back to packages 3 years in a row. The first time was 8 months, the 2nd was about 3 months and the 3rd time was just a couple of weeks. Never went back again. [/QUOTE]
