[QUOTE="Northbaypkg, post: 4725560, member: 58387"] No these aren't just cover drivers. I'm talking, the normal ground guy I see is there for a couple months, then all of a sudden gone. Then I'll see another guy regularly for months again, then gone. I know :censored: is hitting the fan when I see the route owner herself driving the route. I have noticed that turnover hasn't been so bad lately though. I saw way more turnover back during 2014-2016. And it's not like I'm just seeing a new guy. I talk with pretty much all the delivery people out there. I'll hear it straight from their mouths when they've had enough and thinking about a job change. Then I'll talk to the next guy and he'll tell me that he's brand new to ground. Mostly young guys, but there were a couple older guys that I was thinking 'I give this guy 3 weeks tops'. The latest ground guy was on there for over a year. Then all of a sudden he told me they were moving the routes from a building in Vacaville all the way down to San Leandro. That pretty much forced him out. I'm sure he stayed, just moved to another area. [/QUOTE]
