[QUOTE="I Want To Drive, post: 6097422, member: 54325"] Decade long lurker here. Need some big life advice from you guys. A large building is closing down near me with 100+ drivers and it has triggered a massive shift in route's to make room for everyone being displaced. My route is moving from a the largest building in our state (250 drivers+) to a smaller center (70 drivers) up north. My commute to the current building is 25 minutes and the smaller center would be 40. (This is without a doubt the largest contributing factor) I originally thought I wouldn't go but the other 9 driver's that are affected are moving and when other driver's in my building found out I may not go it was like blood in the water. Multiple guys with 25+ years are fighting to see who could win my route if I decide not to follow as it would go up for bid and it would be their ticket out. We are all of course keeping our seniority as this is not a voluntary move. I should mention I do have somewhat of "retirement route". Pure resi 120 miles 110 stops on average. For some of you that's nothing but my hub is in a very urban area where rural route's are quite rare. If you read all of this thank you and any advice would be appreciated. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
