    It depends on the management and whether or not they’re honest. If they’re not and it’s a non-union terminal, politics will come before effiency at all times.

    If you were working 50-60 hrs in the daytime at $28/hr plus OT, would you seriously be willing to instead do 40hrs overnight at $24/hr? Because no one I worked with was willing to do that. Yeah foodservice delivery is hard work, but everyone who does the job is already aware of that. If they didn’t want to work that hard, they would have gotten a job somewhere else.

    Like jmz said it's nights, less pay, 5 day work week instead of 4, and the shuttle guys have been here forever so you at the bottom of that list so it's a crap start time.

    I work for us foods but I haven't ever heard of day Shuttle for either company but I wouldn't see a need since almost everything is run during day hours.

    My earliest release time from the warehouse is 7:30pm, so that means I start at 4pm on those days as I'm about 3hrs from the warehouse, that's the closest to daytime as we get. The warehouse I pull out of only runs right now 1shift and they are probably just starting to fire up that shift right now at 2pm. The thing is, is most customers have till 5pm to get there orders in for the delivery the next day, so that pretty much eliminates all the day time work. Plus, the truck and trailers them selves are out on the road during the day delivering that days products the yard I work out of during the day is empty during the day, there's no trucks or trailers in it at all, you end up getting into equipment issues.
