[QUOTE="Whither, post: 5114481, member: 76643"] Maybe I'm misreading but it seems like your post is at cross-purposes with itself. I think you're correct -- in my building most 22.4s have been off the street. I've seen most hang on to become RPCDs, though there have also been several who quit, not least due to constant hectoring to work 6 days a week right up to their 60 hr limit. But in the last paragraph you write as if it would still take 5-10 years to get a FT job? There may be many "easier" jobs out there, but last I checked there aren't a lot of better paying ones. I don't put a lot of confidence in stereotypes about "generations." It seems like you're knocking younger drivers as "bottom of the barrel," deeming them generally unprepared because they didn't spend years working inside the building. Then you throw me for a loop by adding the bit re: "old timers limping to the time clocks and being treated like cattle by the Company and the Union"? [/QUOTE]
