[QUOTE="Backlasher, post: 767062, member: 6276"] It felt great to have a 9:00 start for a good 4 month stretch and it was great to use EDD (no comment on trace) to get a quick view of the day and look at details on a stop well before I got there. It's what I ve wanted from the start. a five day work week full time seeing the same customers and unique twists that changes how the route runs according what places you hitting that day verses last day. Last 2 months straight I ran a new route that was transferred to my center and am prode t say that Im the only 1 in my center who nows this best. they brought me to train on it at its original center. As of 2morrow I'm back 2 part time on call, probably working 1 or 2 part time days a week and not even our managers know this garbage route but me. All the drivers from other center dreaded this split route, which on paper is officially not a split route cause the other route was dessolved. Little ol part time me knows the route well and killed myself to get it to work and keep these costumers happy. But now I'm a nobody again and this route still isn't being posted for bid so they can save $$$$. So as of now I got to get used to calling in at 430 a.m. again to be told t stay home every morning while they throw in swing drivers at this beast of a route. Yea I know the difference between a good route and a beast cause of had the honers of running minusses on some nice routes wondering what kind of bonus would i of gotten that day. This beast I alone know and will keep it's secrets with me. Have fun u swingers. not saying what pickups I call and what stops you should prioritize. Not this part time nobodies problem anymore. What I'm saying is it's hard to let go after all I poured into this fulltime cover thing just to be stripped of it breaks my heart feeling it was all in vane. I ran it better then the other at the other center and the important costumers apprecieted me and wanted me t b there main guy. Instead I pounder trying to find a 2nd job that will b flexable with U>P>S> and try to make ends meet till I get a chance to have a real bid route and support my family. I didn't miss the on call 430 a.m. on call disappointments and am not looking forward to going back to that again. Disapointed and frustrated an I. I shoulda known better that they were just empty promises to get a body in there to cover. Yhey said we have new routes transfering over and we will keep u working all year dude. You made a smart move and are doing well, really provin yourself,great job. oh it's labor day, gotta put ya back to part time on call staus cause they can't work u air much. Guys in air have more seniority then me and don't have the drive to try out full time cover work. [/QUOTE]
