[QUOTE="TooTechie, post: 1109821, member: 28388"] It completely depends on your center and the routes you'll be learning. Plan to work late. When you start as a driver you're a cover driver until you have enough seniority to get your own route which means you'll be filling in for other drivers on vacation or out on worker's comp so your route will vary. There are some routes which don't get done until 8:30ish then you have a drive back to the center, unload your air, etc etc. The route I've been covering for the last few months since I started driving has it's last pickups at 6PM so if I bust it out I can be back to the center by 6:30 and home by 7. As a new cover driver they will typically keep you on the same route until you make seniority to be fair to you but not always. Once you make seniority you could be covering any route and not knowing a route well will result in you taking a lot longer and getting done later than a seasoned guy who knows it like the back of his hand. Also, when you're a cover driver many centers will send you to help others once you know some routes which also can result in you working later. [/QUOTE]
