Dang,
your ISP should know that once you get a truck with shelves and a walkthru you can get even more done!
If x lost chewy I haven't noticed. Oh well, we'll still have all the over 70# stuff UPS won't take.

Heh, everyone knows that, package selection is faster, lining up the next 5 stops is way easier than running out to the rear rollup door. My former subcontractor had a step van & I kinda miss it.
but this rural route is hard on tires... I last about 15-20,000 miles before they are down to 4/32"
Blah, time to break out the tire plug kit!
Better to find it during the pretrip than being stuck on someone's driveway

If I had a dime for every Amish sheet metal screw and every Amish horseshoe nail I put through tires I would be on Forbes list of the 400 wealthiest Americans But good grief man, you're running on the wear bars. How bald does a tire have to get before your contractor will buy you some new tires? That's the problem with investor class owners. Most don't have a solitary clue about how machines work.

They gave me a temp 1 day last peak. 2 hours into the day i told the guy that i had 130 stops to go and he either needed to pick up the pace or i was taking him back to the station. Safe to say i ended up driving him all the way back and heading out alone lol

I told the helpers I had the last two Peaks to slow down or they wouldn’t last the day. Lol. They wanted to run. Okey dokey. Knock yourself out.

I retired over six months ago and I have zero desire to ever walk into a FedEx Express (or Ground) station ever again. Found a job at a local hospital which pays OK and has a lot more reasonable insurance than Fred would ever be willing to provide. Oh, and I never get a morning phone call backing off my start time.Just some quick cash. Pays better than shoveling manure!
Van, nothing personal but you just can't seem to cut the FedEx apron strings.
To each his own I guess.

I'm leaving at the end of the month, no notice. Can't imagine me doing any work for them for any reason after I leave.
It will be fine

No notice? I don't think it's ever a good idea to burn bridges like that.
If you're on a pension and they pay pretty decent short term compared to all the $8-$12hr jobs out there you might consider it.
Let's be honest, you're here on this forum too, LOL. I haven't done anything for them since leaving in January. But knowing they'd probably pay me at least starting pay, which around here is about $18hr, then why not? Can always use the extra. And I get to be one of those people in civilian clothes who drives around in a Dodge Caravan rental, no unloading cans, doesn't sound too bad.

I wouldn't leave if I wanted to work for them.

Then you probably wouldn't suggest that I make the mess I'm going to make on my way out, either. You'll have to trust me on this one. The people who'll be affected by it earned every bit of it.
Hmm, I can remember when you were pretty high on them while I wanted to punch a manager. Things change, and they will again. But I'm talking picking up some extra bucks. Flying to Europe can get pricey.
You didn't just rent a room on the 32nd floor did you?
They asked me last year to go out and help but I was 5 days away from the second hip joint replacement. Believe me the humiliation of having to ask an old Day 1 contractor was probably even worse than penicillin resistant gonorrhea .
Seriously, please tell us what you're future plans are. Everybody at some time in their life will be confronted with a dramatic and completely unforeseen of events that sometimes transforms their life into something they never dreamed possible.

Might want to consult with MFE. He might want to be your assistant. Might even have a few ideas to improve your exit.
