[QUOTE="keeb86, post: 1365695, member: 54254"] Most new "cut/swing" drivers will get the shaft right away and not get much work because they don't know any areas but the training route they were on for 5 weeks, the original driver gets his route back so it leaves the new guy with no knowledge of other areas to deliver. The supervisors don't want to send a new guy out on a 11-13 hour planned day with 220 to 300 stops in 1-4 cities where they will be freaking out and only getting maybe 80 stops done by 5 o'clock pm only for the sups to have to call 5 drivers to come help the poor guy. It's sink or swim time for your husband, hell get the chance to do cut cars and once he figures those out and knows residential cuts to 3-4 different cities the supervisors won't hesitate to throw him in cut cars everyday with at least 12 hours of work every day. And then there are the routes you can do blind when the drivers want days off or go on vacation, because the sups don't always have time to train you on routes you have to go figure them out on your own... That's how I found work when I was a new driver after my 30 days. Sent using BrownCafe App [/QUOTE]
