I finished my driving school a few weeks ago, but have been on call since. To make up the hours I have been doing the preload and local sort. This has taken a toll on my body and sleep schedule. I was wondering if I HAD to work in the building or could I just file for unemployment instead?

I'd rather sit at home and draw unemployment then work.
And we wonder what's wrong with this country

You're a seasonal driver I assume?

Here you can't collect unemployment because there is always work available inside.

You're not the OP (original poster) but anyways, you'll get your chance soon enough, it's peak there will be more work than you want.

I am in the same boat. I quit a full time job during the day (also worked the local sort). I don't understand why they needed to hire a full time driver if there is no work. I mean don't get me wrong, I've been waiting to go full time, but it just doesn't make sense. I feel like I'm stuck in limbo.
