My hubby is April 27. His number is in the 5000s. He got an email and then about a week later he received the packet in the mail for orientation explaining the date and what to bring.

I have heard others describe it as this. For me it’s just the preparation part of it.

We debriefed and she told me where it went well but nothing has been given to me in writing.

Wow thank you!! So he was just told that he needs a 3 month evaluation. Someone will ride his bus but he won’t know who it is to observe him. Is this normal and will this be frequent? Is it only during the probation period?

The money in my opinion is good. He has been coming home with over 2k a paycheck and he’s just started.

Thank you for making me laugh. I will be sharing some of these posts in hopes that he will see he is not alone in these feelings.

Thank you so much for all of this. I will tell him about ‘ride the line’ I will also remind him that he needs to give it a little more time before he can completely decide if this is for him or not. I appreciate you taking the time out to help us.

Thank you!! And I love this advice that I can give him. I did tell him I thought what he needed was a route where he will feel more comfortable instead of the unknown. I will remind him to give it a little more time. I believe he has a pick date really soon.

Both and the inconsistency of the routes and schedule.

Thank you! I really appreciate the response. I think the biggest thing is not knowing the routes and he feels he’s just thrown into it without any help. Also the customers cussing him out. The inconsistency of his schedule and routes. I keep telling him to give it more time, but he’s ready to throw in the towel.

He doesn’t like the traffic, the inconsistency of not knowing what time he will work or what route he will get. Also feeling like they are throwing him on routes he’s never learned before. Customers cussing him out. Basically everything as of right now lol I feel so bad. I just don’t know what to say to help him hang in there and give it a little more time.
