[QUOTE="OrioN, post: 4548115, member: 58562"] So one BC from another van line says that drivers are a dime a dozen... [Img]https://media0.giphy.com/media/IyxPVz7kG8nsUkek5Y/giphy.gif[/img] Yet, we can't retain drivers for our 7 day operation because after a few days, they see that the compensation does not match the effort for some service areas that takes 40 minutes to an hour for the first stop from the building. [MEDIA=youtube]udcyDHZq-WE[/MEDIA] Sums it up for prospective FXG drivers to at least go with FXE or something else that pay hourly. Sure doesn't help that I highlight some scams in the system like not being paid to sort/load , or drive to the first stop or dead head back to the terminal to unload your pickups and driver exceptions. PS, if one has a cdl, divert them to linehaul & not waste time training them for package delivery. They'll quickly see that mistake & will move on faster anyways. I'll stay to keep the line in check and performing rescues to those newer drivers, but I'll also remind them it's just a weekly paycheck. When the nit picking gets to a point where I get FedUp, I'll also move on. But now I'm getting paid more for doing less than my previous rural route, so it's just supplemental income for me Yeah, some drivers like that independence once they're out on route, so they already know what they're into. New faces monthly now [Img] https://media1.tenor.com/images/247bd78250f0b62adde0a4fcb038e46c/tenor.gif?itemid=11080857[/img] [/QUOTE]
