    I've heard some of ours are considering the same, guess I'm glad to be in a sector where most of my customers have a drive through or do deliveries.

    I can financially handle being shut down for quite some time but I'd really rather not take that hit.
     
    Mike2633 Thanks this.

    I went from 10 stops,1250 cases, 480 miles down to 3 stops, 217 cases, 506 miles on my 2 day at the beginning of the week. My 3 day is looking worse but it looks like I still have to go to Long island.

    I was sore when i got to the hotel at 11am, from all that sitting, LOL. Now my 3 day went bye bye and i get to run a volume store load tonight and possibly tomorrow night. Oh the horror, pulling pallets off at a dock. Just hop I remember how to back into a dock. Haven't backed into that dock in a month(had the same store on my Friday local route) LOL

    I spent a couple years doing regional work, 2500+ miles a week. Now my 105 mile route makes me squirm a bit and if I take the car instead of the bike in hurting by the time I get home.

    41k lbs in 1300 cases is fine though.
