week two

[TooTechie]

Heaviest day yet. They sent someone to take 20 stops off me and I still had heaviest day this year 190% of my regular stop count. Kicked it into high gear and punched out exactly 12 hours in and worked helper for 10 hours.

Why high gear?

With that much work On a Monday it'd have to be low gear for me. Got to pace myself for the week.

My teenager was getting out of his restaurant job at 9:30 and I was trying to pick him up so wife didn't have to wake up the 6 year old.

Good for you. Despite the crap storm we are all going through, family commitments are more important than milking the clock. Believe it or not, life outside Brown goes on.

You can do 200 and not be tired. Trick is make the driver helper do the leg work.

It was a joke.

Nor'easter in the area today. I'm sure that management will expect the... ... expected... and do their best to get everyone in as early as possible.

 

[oldngray]

There will be extra allowances for bad weather and the dispatch will be adjusted accordingly. Won't it?

 

[joeboodog]

They will wait until 10:20 to send a message to use weather for late air and if you aren't done by 21:00 bring it in.

Unless, it's a pharmacy delivery right?

I deliver to a Walmart and walking through the store is a big no-no.[/quo

That is when Peak is most fun as a preloader = late trailers!

We actually were less than yesterday. Everything went as expected all things considered.

Then we walk in through the front door.

They were talking about walking through the store from receiving instead of driving around front.
