    I drive people to their medical appointments and go play golf and stuff while they are there. During the corona crunch I was helping the Army out stuffing people into hotels since the hospitals couldn't handle it. (That's also how I got it myself lol) as a matter of fact a I would have been the 1st positive test in Kentucky but since my official address was in Indiana they counted it for Indiana.

    Pretty much retired.
    I sat around for awhile and got bored.
    It gets me out the house.

    Wife and I just moved on to more money. Making a few thousand more than we were at CFI and running less miles.

    Yes they just recently gave all the drivers a small pay raise. They're trying to make it so so many of the new drivers and drivers with a years experience dont quit.

    Cerberus,

    Good luck to you and the Mrs. A lot of the old regulars have either left or considering leaving. Pretty soon there will be no one left on this CFI forum. Wish you great success.

    Ups just bumped the driver helper pay up to $20 an hour.

    That's the guy that just sits in the little jumpseat in a package car and walks it to the door.

    Those boys are getting slammed so hard I looked in his vehicle the other day at the gas station and went holy #### dude you got like 600 in there.

    He goes yeah...we got another trailer down the road to. Poor guy.

    Imagine you guys are pretty busy.
