Take Care Of Yourself

[Brownslave688]

Now your just being stupid. The majority of my career we had a 150 lb weight limit.

You're*


Hope this helps

And you rarely saw anything that size. Hell at the beginning of my career we rarely saw the big bulky stuff that's a fixture on every truck now.

But we had to walk through snow drifts to deliver packages. Now you guys just roll them out the back door and leave them at the end of the drive. You have it made.

Are you practicing to take Upstates place when he leaves?

Must have been hard walking all of the way to the door for your 35 stops every day.

We had 2 routes that averaged 20 to 25 stops a day and a half a dozen pickups. The trouble with those 2 routes was that 75% of your day was pounding down 300 miles of washboard dirt road. No thanks. I averaged 125-140 stops ---- 110-125 miles----- 22 pickups. I was usually done by 7ish.

Done by 7 wow. What did you do during your free time after 12pm that took you 7 hours?

Our building has seen 2 drivers die of a heart attack (while on duty) in the past 15 months. How about less PCM’s about counting 1-2-3, and more PCM’s about heart attack warning signs and emergency first aid? How about making the job less stressful by sending us out with under 9.5 dispatches, and minimal cuts on Mondays?

I just took care of myself before work. Feels great.

My building also. And at least one of them could have been prevented.
I believe management could use some training on how to respond to drivers calling out for health reasons.

Maybe they need some un-training. Seems to be an acquired trait.
