Don't feel too bad for them. Drivers are the most desired position. When I worked there guys were waiting 10-15 years to make it to a driver.

They bid on routes, based on seniority. Some bid on late routes (i.e. boxes where the last pickup is 7:30pm, etc.) on purpose as anything over 8 hours was time-and-a-half. Back around '00 they started at $50k for drivers, so it adds up.
