[QUOTE="DriveInDriѵeOut, post: 2069644, member: 44954"] Seems like a lot of OP's stress has to do with being a cover driver. Not knowing what you're going to be doing when you go into work in the morning stressed me out big time at first. Being a cover driver isn't for everyone, believe me, there's plenty of bid route drivers who couldn't do what you do. When you go out blind, not knowing if you're ahead or behind can be really stressful. It's all about your mindset. You can always break off for pickups, you can always message the center and have someone get your pick up pieces in on time..... the work WILL get done one way or another. Keep telling yourself that... It will get done, it's only a matter of time. I get where you're coming from, I don't want someone to help me. It makes me feel like I failed. I absolutely hate when someone has to get stops off of me. But when they put you on a route blind, they know this is a possibility. Just do your best and don't let it get you down. There will be times when they send you out on mission impossible, it's not your fault. I'm not saying you shouldn't care, but [B]it is what it is[/B]. Just do your job to the best of your ability and let the chips fall where they may. That's all you can do man. Don't let it get you down bro. [/QUOTE]
