[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 144726, member: 1944"] Since this thread started 1 1/2 yrs ago, I see not much has changed. Although I have been on vacation enough that when a runner is on my route and cant run early, he spouts off to management about how he didnt even have time to stop to PEE and still couldnt run early. So I feel vindicated. Im still the only woman, but somehow in the last yr people have been starting to help me more. I dont know why, guess its coz they now recognize I can do it, Im there every day, and the girls getting older. Of course I dont show it,(sarcasm inteneded) but hey if you want to help, knock yourself out, I gotta pace myself. And I will ask older custmoers if I cant please slide this inside your door, than leave it on the step for them to struggle with it. Truth is if people dont do what we do, a 40 pd box is Heavy. Ive been lucky, Ive blended well. I think if you do not carry an attitide, you are generally well accepted. But do expect to prove yourself, and I agree, we should, because at this company, you literally have to be able to carry your weight,(with some help) or you should not get the job. And personally if I couldnt do it I wouldnt want it. I wouldnt want to be the one who ruins others day, because I always needed help. [/QUOTE]
