[QUOTE="ManInBrown, post: 2874942, member: 46614"] Couple questions I was wondering. Going to feeder school in a few weeks. How do you punch in when you're in feeders? In package you walk in, grab the board and punch in. How does it work in feeders? Do you have to go right to your tractor and punch in on Ivis? I show up 2 minutes before start. I don't want to have to show up early and search for my tractor to punch in. I'm not doing that. I'm not in a hub so we don't have feeders that originate from my building I don't think? Is there a feeder office in the hubs? Do you use the same tractor or does the tractor go with the run like package? I get conflicting answers from some of the feeder drivers I've spoken to. Almost every single one told me once you move to feeder, you never touch a package again. Then one feeder driver told me he had a local run where at one of the pickups he had to load in loose tires? Which one is it? I'm not making the move to feeders and sacrificing a regular sleep schedule so I can still break my back loading 500 tires in a 53 footer. And I would have to imagine if runs like that exist, they go to the bottom guys which will be me. Are there runs where you still handle packages? I thought everything for feeder was pallets? [/QUOTE]
