Are PVD Drivers Scabs?

If you are smart you will hold out for a driver job.

Anyone who isn't a felon can be a loader... and it may take a decade to go from loader to driver.

In my building you can go from loader to driver in 6 months.

I would do some asking around but the wait in my building is less than a year nowadays.

You must be in teenie weenie podunk. Easily less than a year to go pt to ft driving. And easily less than 5 years from driving to feeder. The days of paying your dues is long gone in metro centers.

No, FT delivery driver. We don't have PT delivery drivers outside of air drivers.

My center has been hiring off the street straight into full time drivers.
Hard to find people willing to work for first year drivers pay.

Why would anyone be a package car driver when you can make significantly more money double shifting as a "part time" employee or delivering the easy stuff as a personal vehicle "driver"

I think the only one calling PVDs scabs are the keyboard warriors here. They sure as hell would never say it face to face and sure as hell don’t complain dumping off those stops to someone else lol.

People, in general, are lazy, and look for the easiest way out.

The union songbirds are as hypocritical as anyone.

I've called them scabs to their face as I was sent home along with the other part time drivers. So am I a keyboard warrior also? I bust my ass all the time but I'm being screwed

 

[clean hairy]

Socks?????

The return of the holiday turkeys?

Believe me, if you were busting your ass, they would find work for you. It’s no secret that the turds are sent home.

And I don’t believe you call them scabs to their face…none of these keyboard cowards do.
