[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 672208, member: 12570"] Preload is smart. Make sure you watch and see if they try to use air drivers and such to do EAM's, shuttling, etc etc. [COLOR=red]I don't think the OP can bump an air driver to deliver EAMs or other NDA but he should be used to shuttle ground.[/COLOR] If enough people call in and you drive, you will hit Overtime EARLY in the day. [COLOR=red]He should know the day before whether he will be needed to drive and, if so, would not work the preload. If there are LIBs or bulk that could not be dispatched he may be asked to deliver those but it is unlikely that he would work the preload and then deliver a full area on the same day.[/COLOR] I got a driver who got laid off and is working one part time shift and collecting partial unemployement for the shortage. [COLOR=red]This may vary from state to state so the OP should check with his local Unemployment Division.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#ff0000]I am surprised that he is not able to work two shifts in order to get his 8 hours which leads me to believe that he is not a FT driver but rather is a casual/cover driver.[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
