You get to "make" the route, yours.
Regardless of what management thinks it should be able to do.
You would get to see.... who the brown nose people are.

That must suck, how would one know if they like business only or resi only, long drives, short ones, on and on. Plus, don't you get bored as hell?
Yep.
But.... How many routes (now) are worth bidding ?
Only Orion knows.

Yep... And some of those ass kissers are the first to throw a fing fit towards mgt when they don't get their way usually on the phone with the ba within 5 minutes... You know, the ones that play both sides...ac-dc's... lol
I'm in the south. In a center full of nutless cowards. Our BA has nearly given up trying to convince them to stand up for themselves. I'm looked at as a troublemaker when all I do is follow the contract. The sad thing is, I'm the one they never mess with and they are too blind (or scared) to see it.
So out of your center what % of the drivers aren't in the union???
They are all in the union. They just wont stand up for themselves. One of them is a 30 yr driver who skips his entire lunch and runs like a maniac because they chopped an hour off his time allowance. I told him that's why they do it-because it works! Makes me want to puke.
Yep... One would have to be an absolute idiot if they think a corporation who's only job is to make money wouldn't change something (production numbers) knowing that there will be some who will work faster thinking it is their fault... That makes ME want to puke!! It is such a scam and there are people who totally believe those numbers are fair... Omfg... Really???..lol
I've said this before but if you had an outside company come in and set up a production system at ups and let us drivers give fair input on things I would be almost certain that as a driver group we would be "given" back millions of hours a year... I would bet the bank on that...ups would never do this knowing this fact...total scammers
Does anyone know as a whole how many drivers in southern states aren't in the union... I'm talking the dirty south.. Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia... Etc
Its not as low as you may think. I can remember a center near us that got out of the union because they said they had a "good boss". That was all rainbows and unicorns until the company decided to dissolve the center. Then they all wanted in the union. Even offered a pretty hefty lump sum . I remember having some fun with that one.
Because they were out for years and the local told them they couldn't just come back because things suddenly got rough. The union represented them for years in the form of negotiating contracts. I personally wouldn't take them back.
