[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 3156377, member: 14596"] Agreed. I really don't understand why so many seem to be losing their minds over this. 1) The company is implementing them under the Seasonal driver language, so they are seasonal and can only be used during peak 2) They will naturally be limited in the number of packages they can take out at one time. From the perspective of someone who has been involved in creating and implementing peak plans for a center, I can see a use for seasonals PVDs. - Running Shags, Running Misloads, Running a few limited residential neighborhoods here and their to either help out a driver with a 17 hour planned day or that did not contain on the preload. But to use them to replace a driver group? I could just imagine my center manager telling us one morning "Well, the Teamsters went out on strike so instead of loading the 18000 packages into the package cars, we are going to set out seperate piles for each of the 900 Dodge Grand Caravans that should be here shortly" [/QUOTE]
