[QUOTE="10 point, post: 1490452, member: 52520"] The trained seasonals went out with less than 8 hrs. The other seven went out with 3-4 hr dispatches (who got less training by management). Our routes have blown up by 50% more stops and more than 50% in bulk since 1997 and implementation of edd. The company is demanding more out of drivers because our pay has doubled in 20 yrs. We had almost 50 drivers in our center 17 yrs ago and the volume has grown almost 40-50% but now we have 20% less drivers, and the overtime is thru the roof. The routes have become somewhat mentally easier due to edd IF the DOLs are correct and we don't get pocket dispatch...minus the consistent poor loads due to a truck jambed full daily. If veterans such as Slant are so sure that the routes are easier today jump out of your combi vehicle and run one of those jacked up metro routes for 6 months...if you last that long. [/QUOTE]
