[QUOTE="HEFFERNAN, post: 997750, member: 11315"] 12 year driving vet here (17 total) and I've learned you will never win anymore at the new UPS but can get a big paycheck. For years I would run my route and get out at 5pm (depending on pickups of cover routes), now I bid a route that forced me to stay in town til 6pm. So I would make the extra money and learn how to balance my work effort for the long haul. It would be nice to be out early and that was the apple in front of the horse that made it worth my while. Now if I ended early, id be summoned to take more stops off drivers or go do air meets. Threw the reward of leaving early out the window. THEN, the NEW UPS decides to cut routes and pad stop counts which turned my nice route into a 160 stop monster daily. So now I just pace myself and when their cutdown plans interfere with me having a good day, I take the 2 - 2 1/2 hours ot and gladly add it to my check. I make sure if they want theirs, I'LL GET MINE for the effort. [/QUOTE]
