[QUOTE="Fellow Newbie, post: 113188"] I finished driver training class two weeks ago. Once in my center, I went out three days with a sup and have been on the same route since. Some days are great - 9.5 hours and everything comes off the truch easy. Other days make me want to drive the truck back to the building and walk away - like pouring rain with 500 pieces packed to the ceiling and a dozen ODS pickups taking me off route. That day I got back to the building at 9:00pm. Be prepared to work extremely hard. You will have a hard time adjusting to this job. I think everyone does. The vets will tell you to "take your lunch". Lunch is out of the question until you at least know your route. I can afford ten minutes to eat and 20 minutes to sort my truck. If I took an hour lunch, I wouldn't be done til 8:00 every night. Get you book and then slowly, over time, pace down and take a full hour. Until you're in the union, no one cares about you. [/QUOTE]
