[QUOTE="Rarefish383, post: 4717156, member: 86785"] I'm gonna beat the dead horse one more time and then I'll shut up on the subject. First of the year we got a new sup. His first PCM he said he was going to make changes to make the center more efficient. Second week I get in, and after the PCM, he walked up to me and said, "I broke your route out, you can go home". I was in the top 10 of 40 plus drivers. I went and sat in the managers office. Manager came in and asked what I was doing? Waiting for instructions for my guaranteed eight. Didn't the new guy offer you work in another center? I worked in a major hub, we had 8 or 10 centers and 400 drivers. Nope, he just told me to go home. Manager offered me 4 hours to run two big bulk stops in rentals. OK Third week new guy said I broke your route out again, you can go home. Went and sat in managers office. He got someone to go home and I ran that route. When I got in that evening the manager asked if they broke my route out again the next week, would I be interested in going to BWI and getting the EAM's, running them, and a few splits, for eight hours. Sure. That was kind of fun and I thought it might be an easy change. First week I did that, one of the drivers they gave one of my splits to, called in and said he couldn't do it. My route was an all Resi route with 200-220 stops and maybe 250 QVC packages. Lot of running, but easy.
