Not a 30 year job?

[Catatonic]

150 is the limit
You can request help for an over 70.
But I wouldn't ask most customers to help, especially at home stops.

The majority of my over 70"s isn't to my commercial customers. It's to the residentials

Dude,
I'd ask anyone for help and I would do it even more if I understood then how much the wear and tear adds up ...

They keep changing the rules and moving the finish line.

Adapt to changing conditions.... Right out of their playbook... Right..

Going out with upwards of 200+ stops with a 150 pounder furniture gallery in back practically daily isn't something that's practical for 30 years. You might squeak through if you're lucky. But for most, no amount of "proper methods" or low steps and power steering are going to save you from that kind of daily beatdown over decades.

Some old timers at my center who are closing in on 30 are having physical issues of their own. Could you imagine if they'd started their careers with what we go out with today?

Oh you trouble maker... Thank goodness you aren't a driver in my loop... You would be the guy in the office wining everyday and on he 9.5 list....dumping stops to everyone else....I just know it!!

 

[DriveInDriveOut]

We also have high steps and manuals with narrow doors.
Are you in the BOG?

Not to mention wayfair and overstock and casper mattresses etc etc etc.

Actually I averaged 54 hours a week.
I'd take splits with no gripes.
I took a big pay cut when I went into management in '78.

How the hell would you know?
I drove one 3 days last week.

I just roll that crap right out of the back of the truck. If you are that ignorant to out it on me, I'm that ignorant to deliver it.

Roll air-conditioner...roll.

I hurt like most people my age but I honestly attribute most my issues with 40+ years of tennis and motorcycle accidents.

Hell, Orion has me backing in so many driveways anyways, might as well back right up to the garage and push it out.

Pay for child support, alimony, college tuition, and a few weddings, and see how easy 30 years is to do.
