SPH is correct. You're area of the podunks must be screwed regardless of the economy.

These new part timers are DRA part timers. I assume management will turn off..errr DRA will be down on Saturday. This will allow management to force more stops on routes and as a result, of DRA down, newbie PT'ers will be lost without their DRA maps.

yup - maybe not 'good' exactly, but sure beats the courier grind by a far sight.

Not here....but the cost of living and QUALITY of life is worth 100k. It's not how much you make but what you do with it.
How many rotating shifts, Sundays have I worked years ago? .... A LOT.
In the last 22 years....not many.
See I said that and didn't even belittle anyone or call them a name.
I quit smoking after 30 years on Mothers day.....now I'm really in the green when the Marlboro reds went out.
Funny thing is I did it for my soon to be EX wife....lol

Can they even mandate pt'ers to work Sunday or Christmas?

Knowing FedEx, they'll break out the good old "operational needs" play.
Personally, I still don't see how they're going to try and make this work. If they tell me I'm working Christmas, I'll just call in sick. So what if I lose my holiday pay? Being with my family and celebrating the birth of our saviour is more important than money to me.

Triple overtime + holiday pay.
Nothing can substitute for Christmas with your family.

I fully expect that Christmas will be mandatory this year. It will be so screwed-up that "operational needs" will dictate it. It's already screwed-up beyond recognition in most stations.

Christmas + time with my family.Triple overtime + holiday pay.
I'm not delivering packages on Christmas and let my manager know it. Ball is in their court now.

Don't we miss enough of the holidays as it is? Now they want Christmas Day? What is wrong with these people?

Why would they care? The people who make these decisions will be at home with their families on Christmas Day, regardless.

Well, there is; it's just sometimes up for debate what order they're in.
