He would be indifferent, which is much better than being indecisive.

I am a single guy with older kids who remembers what it was like when the kids were much younger and guys like you would make sure they had the day off.

When I was a young driver, all the older guys without school aged kids would take spring break week off, because they couldn't take spring break week when they had young kids, great job guys. Good for you, Upstate. I'm sure they appreciate you doing this.

Which honestly is kind of crap. It's not different than if I had put the hours in during the week. Would of been time and a half then also

I think it will depend on each building. Those areas who have been affected by the weather, definitely would have to try to catch up on Saturday. For my building for the last few weeks we have been having a few full-timers come in, but they are mainly here because we are short-staffed, and also they needed them to do ground pick-ups. Tomorrow they are expecting more Saturday air volume, but I don't think it will be as heavy as last year, since Christmas is on a Wednesday, and last minute shoppers can still get it shipped by ground at some major retailers up till tonight/tomorrow.
