[QUOTE="104Feeder, post: 1247786, member: 42554"] What I am hearing from your post is the frustration I felt coming just before leaving Package for Feeders. Drivers aren't empowered anymore to treat "their" routes as their own Business (in the same way Center Managers used to be able to run their Center as it's own business). Now you are beholden to Orion/PAS/whatever flavor of the day and answer to other people who aren't empowered and so on and so on. Feeders hasn't fallen quite so far into the abyss probably because we have more Federal regulation and try as they might you really can't shave all that much time off of a run. In the West we have new language that allows the Union to address the Center plan in relation to the 9.5 issue. It will be interesting to see how that plays out. Part of why I became a Steward long, long ago was to affect change where I could. My suggestion to you is to perhaps modify the Serenity prayer (pardon the religion, I'm not religious but this has value): to also allow you the patience to wait for change that may come. Keep your head up Brother. [/QUOTE]
