[QUOTE="dilligaf, post: 304436, member: 11476"] I totally feel your pain. The first time I went out on a route I hadn't even gone to school. They used me because I already had a good medical card ( I have had a class a cdl for 15 years.) They put me out on a rte that runs 120/140 stops and 90% is business. I had the regular rte drivers phone number because I preloaded for him. By the end of the day I had only about 50 stops done, the regular driver came to help me with his p/u (on his personal time) and I had to sheet about 80 stops as missed. (LITERALLY)!!!!!!!!!! It was insane. I told them I couldn't get it all done but they didn't have anyone to help. Oh well. Moral.........Call and tell them you can't get it done. If they don't do anything that's their problem. I have never gotten a warning letter for missed business, but have been threatened w/ it. Don't worry to much about sheeting incorrectly. They will let you know when you do and as long as you don't have to many repeat mistakes they will let it go. Remember " The faster I go the farther behind I get". Don't try to rush, rush, rush. That's when you'll make mistakes. Take your breaks and breathe. Breaks will help you unscramble your brain and breatheing will help keep you focused on what you are doing. You can only do one stop at a time. It will take awhile to get used to it but before long you'll see that you can do it. [/QUOTE]
