    I got in the habit of calling to set a new appointment for earlier if I knew I was going to be that early. I would say I got earlier times 75% of the time. My carrier is OK with this and YMMV.

    I would always ring both ends - and try to load and unload early. It takes a bit of pestering, some like Walmart are fixed - no budge.

    I averaged 2900 a week over 18 months this way, but had to work st it.

    IMHO, I'd give it some time - work at them personal relations . . .
