[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1186861, member: 12508"] I'm not saying that it is a "hard job" in general, but that it [B]is[/B] compared to being a Ground driver. Do you really think the average Ground clown is going to be willing to do it? All of the accountability, expectations and the rest of it, for $12-$14 per hour? And there are plenty of Ground drivers who have "peaked" in terms of what they are capable of doing. If you've been around Express for awhile, you know that everyone isn't cut out for the job. Even if bbsam thinks he can train his box monkeys to do it, how many of them will for the crap wages he is paying? You seem to be a know-it-all, so what kind of SPH are you getting from the new hires at your station? At mine, the newbies are capable of about half the productivity of an experienced courier, and most of them are leaving after a few weeks or at the most, a few months.
