Beg to differ on that one - Our local sort is comprised ENTIRELY of cover drivers chomping at the bit to drive, any day, any price, any route.

My point was......that as with all of their numbers, they are overly optimistic. Given the current job market, they should be able to be more selective about who they hire. Weeding out those with the problems I stated earlier, will significantly lower the amount of available candidates. And those that look good on paper may not "cut it" in the real world.

That's all I'm saying!

When they say that there are n100 people waiting to take our place, they are talking about OUTSIDE of the company(not cover drivers working inside). In that context, your calculations are probably right on spot.



LTD? Don't kid yourself and don't try to kid us. All these starving cover drivers may say "cover drivers chomping at the bit to drive, any day, any price, any route.". You can bet your last dollar that when they get the first check, if the pay isn't what the contract says, they'll be filing grievances.

I let a "starving cover driver" run my route today. He didn't seem all that excited about it.

My dad always said it was "We're from the government and we 're here to help you."

He had his eightieth birthday 2 weeks ago. Korean vet and I still wouldn't want to fight him.
