WAYYY back in the 1980's before Cell Phones,Internet,GPS and all of that good stuff we had a Seasonal Driver that just KNEW he was going to be kept after peak because he was so great,MUCH better than us lazy regular drivers. He'd come in creally early ( like 5 am) sort his truck stop-for-stop and RUN all day. He was on an Industrial route and the truck would go out full and come back full. Management would send him back out with extra stops in different towns and boy oh boy could he deliver those stops! management LOVED him and told him Heck Yes we keeping you!! You are a SUPERSTAR!............. anyways we all told him his ass was grass after peak,like we told him EVERY day he was one day being closer to being cut............he didnt believe us, no way that was happening as Management LOVED him!!
The last week of peak HR called his house and told him he'd need to turn in his uniform before he could get his last check and it FINALLY set in.
The industrial route was a very big money maker for the center to start with and when he was on it it made management even MORE money as he made extra pickups. One pickup always shipped out NDA and International Express .These were computer parts going all over the country and the world.
He left out December 22 and by noon the center phone was ringing off the hook as NOBODY on the route had gotten the deliveries they needed to turn around for pick up...............the phone never stopped ringing as nobody got picked up either! The center manager took a rental to make the pickups himself lol
The seasonal driver came back about 10:30 pm with a full truck and threw the keys on the roof and said Eff All Ya'LL........................ it was EPIC lol
