[QUOTE="trickpony1, post: 111691, member: 1957"] There seems to be a prevailing mentality that if you're not out there jumping in and out of a pkg car, dealing with customers and humping boxes then you aren't making the company any money. I think management has pounded that into their heads. I have even heard complaints from pkg drivers that a feeder pulling a single trailer makes 10 cents more per hour than a pkg driver. I think there is a degree of resentment by pkg drivers that all feeder drivers do is "....drive around and listen to the radio.". Never mind having to work into the depths of the night. Never mind having to operate a vehicle that can't be whipped around like a pkg car. Never mind the precautions that must be taken during bad (ice, snow, rain) weather. I can't speak for any other feeder driver but I, personally, have never kept anyone from signing a feeder bid sheet. [/QUOTE]
