[QUOTE="Northbaypkg, post: 2750636, member: 58387"] If you can start at 9:15-9:30 and still get all your air delivered by 10:30 you must not have a lot of air stops. I average 14 a day and there's no way I'd be able to get them all off starting at that time. Hell our start time is 8:45 and they allow me to clock in at 8:30 so I can spend 15 minutes straighting out the 60 or so pieces of air that my preloader bulk loads in sections 1 and floor 1. As for the OP, there were times where I felt like our center was the same way. They pushed our start time to 9am at one point and at that time I averaged at least 4 late air stops per day. I didn't get in trouble or anything. I'd ask for air help in the morning and of course, they'd say there was no one available and to just 'minimize the damage'. Meaning deliver all the bulk stops with multiple next day air packages and leave the resi onesies to be late. Different drivers have different feelings about late air. Some just do what they can and feel no problem whatsoever delivering a ton of air late. But myself, I take pride in servicing my customers correctly. So although I know it isn't my fault I'm showing up late with their air, I still feel embarrassed. So I have no problem clocking in early to give myself a better chance of being on time. [/QUOTE]
