[QUOTE="NoPetesHere, post: 5840853, member: 105670"] 23 y/o Feeder in NW Ohio, started October of 22. A few from the bottom out of 300(+-)ish Drivers. I've worked roughly about 5-6 months out of the 1 year and 4 months of Seniority that I have. And yea I know you old bstrds had to walk backwards through 6 feet of snow on your way to work just to go in the building for 10 years before you got to even look at a Feeder bid, I get it. Outside of my "Full-Time" Feeder position I've been working for a FedEx Ground Contractor who has been generous to keep me afloat during the typical UPS B.S. I came into this hub hoping the new (North Baltimore) hub would be my "saving grace" but since yesterday's meeting it feels like anything but that. Without making this too long the main advice I'm chasing is, with how young I am I don't want to toss my young adulthood out the window in hopes of getting a CPU 8 Hour day bid in 5-6 years... Would I be better off finding another LTL Company (I've had my eyes on Dayton Freight and R&L) which would allow me to move(transfer with a job lined up without having to go through progression) nearly anywhere rather than being stuck here only working barely half the year. Any and all advice is appreciated. [/QUOTE]
