So, when does this job get hard?

[gridlore]

Today was my first "real" day on the streets as a PODS driver. Oh, I've had my truck for a week or so, and been rolling around on my own a little, but what I was doing were long runs to places like Lincoln, or doing tandem jobs, where I and another driver would go to do something. There was usually someone else there, and I didn't have that many jobs to do.

Not today. Today I was handed Run #2, six jobs all in San Jose (more or less.) Nobody to guide me, I just had to go out and do the job.

I kicked ass. My second job was picking up a pod that was in a.. difficult position, to say the least. The rest were fairly easy, and every time I called in to time stamp (I don't have my work phone yet, so I'm calling the warehouse on my phone and giving the details) the seemed please that I wasn't calling for help.

By the time I reached my last job (a return to warehouse) I was feeling really good. This was my acid test, doing a full day's work, and I passed with flying colors.

Go me.

What's the Pod number? I'll look for it on the job sheet.

(The number is on the bottom corner of the long side of the container. Something like 123B50.)
