Chev,like I said before don`t stand around if you don`t want to volunteer. Find something out of sight to do.
Right on point.
No one bothers me as far as loading a feeder. I do however lend a hand once in a while. Never been pushed to do more and I don't intend to.

@ Sleeve.......so how long have you been "here" since your Join date says 08' ? Why the new screen name if so?

I am only giving you facts there. If you exercise, you will be more alert and active. That is clad, pure science. Only an undereducated grunt would think otherwise, so there it is, the truth! Also The contract here says "all feeder drivers will load and unload as directed"....that is not very difficult to understand either...
Calling me an undereducated grunt does nothing to prove your point. Name calling is for poopie heads.
I understand your point, but don't paint all feeder drivers with such a broad brush. I actually do a lot more than is asked of me. For example, last night I jumped in a trailer and helped unload while I was shifting in the yard. I had nothing to do at the moment and really don't like standing around.

I never called all feeder drivers lazy. But I did say , and will say, that:

if a feeder driver ever says they can't move a couple packages yet want to leave on-time and get upset when not getting on the road on time, and doesn't want to expend a couple minutes energy fearing they will fall asleep at the wheel or feel they are too good to do it (which the contract disagrees with), they are ridiculous and need to get a grip on reality -either scientifically or egotistcally, or regarding laziness.

again, Take it how you want! Ignore me if you like.

Agreed. No need to ignore. You have a valid opinion.
