[QUOTE="gman, post: 58210"] Are you talking full time or part time? I can not recall a "driver" quitting for the last 7 or 8 years. I would agree with part time. But full time jobs in my area are hard to come by. We are loosing routes all the time. And not because of higher SPORH, but because in the rust belt, we no longer have the work. Our part timers are waiting close to ten years for an opportunity. Be happy you have so much opportunity. And keep in mind, if they bring in replacements for half your wage, (by then,$28 an hour) and little or no benis, they can double the work force and double the profits. Don't break your arm patting yourself on the back. There are no more good paying easy jobs. Quite honstly, I personally think it's just getting back to the way it was when I started driving in '76. I never got home til 9. As a young driver, as soon as I hit the building, they put me on the reload until they finished up. Is it really so much worse now? Now I'm sure you're thinking he's been taken over by the Big Brown fear factor. Hey, I'll be retired when the stuff hits the fan. My concern now is that there is still a Teamster pension plan to pay me back for the 36 years I gave to them. [/QUOTE]
