That’s crazy as hell. I would never be able to go back to swing driver. Same route for life here.
How many times have you come off a route for another one?

Well, that’s kinda how it’s ends up once you get there. It’s an unwritten rule, if they pull you off your route, you tank like a fat blind kid that doesn’t speak English. But it does still happen.
Seems so much more simple if everyone kept their route until they either wanted another one that was open or retired.

Can’t even get guys to go to proposal meetings. Weak union leaders, and even weaker members.

It’s not bad really, when a route gets extra stuff like a set of apartments or something, it allows you to get off it and run another route that might have gotten sweeter over time. I’ve stayed on a couple for 2 cycles, eventually you get bored or the above happens.
We have routes that, when I started, were the sweetest in the building, just last bid one of those “sweet” routes fell to the second to last person on the seniority list.

Same here. I think it works well. 10 yrs on the route I'm on now, 14 yrs the route before and cover drove a few years before that. No feeder bids though.

Utility driver for 5 years then I got my route.
Had my route for over 13 years. It changed here and there. Towards the end it was sweet. In by 5:30 with production bonus. Great customers whom I miss dearly.
But Feeder is the way to go. Just did two weeks of sleeper. Only worked six days. Two four day weekends in a row. Not using any time off. Went to Las Vegas. Three day weekend until I head back to work on Monday.

I had a rural route that was OK.
Until they started building subdivisions in the middle of it.
500k to 700k dollar homes sprung up like mushrooms.
The Stay at Home Moms were nice for many reasons....but my stop count increased 30%, they changed my route by 60% and I bumped off the route

I thought this was about being taken off one route and placed on a different one in the same day.

How does an 8hr request work with no bid routes? Or do they just not honor it regardless?
