[QUOTE="Whither, post: 4663308, member: 76643"] Near the end of my 30 days, after it was clear I was gonna qualify as long as I didn't get into an accident, they were repaving [B]the[/B] thru-street on the back half of the route's cake resi subdivision. Called my supe and asked him if he wanted me to sheet them EC or use the cart. Told me to use the cart. So I walked off 15 stops with the cart -- easily a 2 mile round-trip on foot. Of course one of the cul-de-sacs had a couple hyper, untrustworthy pups. And of course the pups were roaming the block that day and gave me a lot of trouble. That's a good reason I don't like to get too far from the pkg car. I've only run from dogs one time on this job (sneaky pack of 4 large dogs, was closer to the gate than I was to being ninja enough to fend them off with only my wits and the board ... and I lived to tell of it haha) I'll stand and fight when caught in the open by surprise, but I know I can keep backing away to nearby safety. When the pkg car is a block down the street, it's a different story ... you're exposed. [/QUOTE]
