[QUOTE="Cementups, post: 1272620, member: 8590"] Most of the time I agree. But after a certain time of day you're beyond the level of care because you wanted to be done 2 hours earlier but got shafted. At that point I've got the "show me the money" mentality. Mid-peak I had a pickup hammer me with over 1,000 pieces. Filled my P13 front to back, top to bottom. Still had 2 dozen deliveries to do after that pickup as well. Finallly pulled into the building after 9pm. Next to another guy pulling in also with a full P13. They were just about to shut down the unload so the sup asked myself and the other driver if we would drive our package cars around the building and park it on the primary and they would unload it directly into the sort. Other driver says, "That's not my job. After I park the truck the packages in it aren't my problem. And I want to go home." And he walked off into the sunset. I said, "no problem, man, you're paying me $45/hour. I've already missed dinner and kissing my kids goodnight so I may as well make s few more bucks. Now where is the primary?" (20 years and I never worked in that part of the building) It was a 5 minute drive around and a 5 minute walk back to the center. Easy money at that point. [/QUOTE]
