    If I could get 12 hours a day consistently all year round I’d do p&d. Gotta make that money.

    I have 13 at my place, and a long day doesn’t necessarily bother me. It’s the favoritism that does.

    All #### day. If you can deliver that extra stop before sundown now that you completed the normal Darden route somewhat earlier into redlobsters today, that is what you will do.

    I took the on call schedule so I could get some more hours. 95% of the time I come in at 7am and work until anywhere from 530-830pm. Dispatch knows I want to work. So they let me work.
     
    Bob Dobalina Thanks this.

    when i did grocery delivery i typically worked 13-15 hours a day. i had some 20+ hour days where i had to get rescued and my knights in white satin took five-ever to get there. oh well. i did that for 4 years. id go back to it if i only had to work 40-45 hrs. i had 4 day work weeks, no weekends/holidays etc.
