[QUOTE="JustTired, post: 814960, member: 10234"] Look....I'm not trying to predict anything. Just "food for thought". I agree that putting a rookie behind the wheel will not yield the results that the company would hope for. But, consider the possibility that these "greenhorns" would be making considerably less per hour. That would afford the company the ability to "add more routes" and to weather the transition. Believe me....I'm not a company man by any means....but it is wise to consider the possibility, no matter how remote it may seem. They can't move the U.S. operation overseas as so many other companies have done. They can't fill the seats of package cars with cheap labor from Mexico (although inside jobs could be a different story). So, if they try doing nothing......they are stuck with a full time workforce that is probably one of the highest paid in the country (not just the industry). I wouldn't put it past them to try anything. It's becoming a different world out there and in my opinion it's not for the better. I think (right or wrong) it's gonna be hard to hold on to what you've got and that would sadden me. [/QUOTE]
