    The questionnaire should have asked about lying to drivers.

    “Average income” is not accurate, unless “last six drivers hired” is the sample.
    I speak mostly of “10 1/2 hour day”,
    And “regular schedule “

    if you don’t go to the same customers day after day, or each week, you will get lost, not know of road construction, not know which door to enter, or which dock, etc.
    And you won’t get done in 10 1/2 hours.

    FedEx Ground is starting Saturday and Sunday coverage, which is where the new driver is assigned, and the new dispatcher, and that’s a formula for wasted time.
    Oh, and the dispatch has banker hours.....what a mess.

    Don’t forget the weekend crew at the customers.

    I don't understand any of this at all.

    Would you like to rewrite that please? Are you trying to point out problems or are you trying to tell us of problems with your company?

    I cannot engage in providing a opinion or answer here. Its not well understood on my end.

    Thats easily remedied, with a proper phone call to the company at any time of the day or night.
