[QUOTE="Cementups, post: 2289789, member: 8590"] That's hard for me to give you an accurate answer. My first year in 1996 I worked maybe 50% of the time. In 1997 we went on strike and management cut back on utilization of driver for about the next year so I got sent back to preload. I would work preload and then come back in for the afternoon sort and get a second shift in. Eventually I would start wearing my browns in to sort and if they needed someone I was there and ready to work. I made myself available. It was about a year after the strike until I started driving regular again, but from then on I've rarely had a forced day off since. Normally, the driver's that start in our building don't work very regular the first year. After the first year they start to get utilized a bit more. Right now we are at a point where we need drivers as well and we don't have too many bodies sitting at home daily. I see guys that just qualified driving 3-4 days a week. In your building it seems they need drivers so bad they are willing to forgive the promote from within policy so you may be working daily from day 1. It's rare but it happens. Enjoy the ride.
