[QUOTE="MisplacedRailWorker, post: 4809903, member: 67466"] I’m gonna take a wild guess that you were in my old building NYMNS, couldn’t have been 43rd they get only the best Still wouldn’t have traded for the world. Houston St was a hell of a place I loved it. Especially the size (200 RPCDs in total from all 3 centers) One time the Best Buy/Barnes & Noble route (Second most sought after in Village Ctr) driver was on vacation, so BESTBNS was mine for the week... The route in and of itself was a cakewalk, I think it was ~600 pieces for Barnes & Noble The rest was Best Buy maybe 200 pieces. Both were commingled pickups (our term for bulk stops that plan their outbound shipments in advance to eliminate the need to return for pickup. Do not take my word for this but I believe a discountoffered for accounts that do this) As soon as you bang the dock, each store’s employees come out with shrink wrap in hand. Just scan ‘em and hand ‘em over. Hopefully the contract still prohibits drivers from touching customers’ equipment or pallets. At least it did back then. This was only time I can say that the driving in NYC was the hardest part of my day. I was 21, 5’8” and 150 lbs soaking wet. Stalling through intersections with pedestrians laughing at me My boot was on the dash trying to turn the wheel since power steering was invented at least 30 years after this thing left the dactory International 4-speed Maybe three that were functional Each one missing teeth [/QUOTE]
