[QUOTE="dirty moose, post: 251817, member: 10016"] Ill take a stab at this one, im a younger driver im 23. What ikoi says is somewhat right, most of us young guys don't have to support a family or kinds, i still live at home. At this point in my life my time is more important to me than working over time just to stick it to the boss and whatever. Another thing; being a cover driver isn't easy, its something different everyday. The way i try and look at it is keep the boss happy and for the time being ill stay in an area i know/like vs. filing a bunch of grivences and giving them problems they and I don't need. And then getting slammed in a area i don't know or don't like. Its a lot easier for guys with routes to fight these battles because in the morning they go to the same truck and same route, the boss can't stick him in another area. I like to stay in a area i know, I've been around for about 4 years so im low on seniority and i don't like to play the bump a lower driver off a route game, its just not my style. What it comes down for me is my time, i like to be in and out of that place as fast as can be, when top pay kicks in ill slow things down a bit. But for the time being i don't have to support a family, so of course my priorities are different than the drivers who have houses and families to support. [/QUOTE]
