[QUOTE="browner89, post: 1570209, member: 56104"] 6pm (~4pm-9:30pm daily in my area, getting maybe 15 minutes shorter per day and starting at 4 again on Monday) is the Twilight/Local sort, not the Preload. There are a few main jobs on that shift: Loader - Loads the feeder trailers (53/28ft trailers) Unloader - Unloads trailers/Package Cars that come back after their day is done Sorter (Skilled Position) - sends the packages to where the need to go after unloaded Small Sort Bagger - Bags small packages and envelopes under 10lbs Small Sort Sorter (Skilled Position in some centers) - Sorts those smalls and under 10s to the bagger Skilled Positions start at $11/hr instead of $10/hr but you won't be doing any of those right away as you need to do some memorizing first. Small sorts is a "preferred" spot based on seniority in most hubs, not all (everyone in smalls at my hub was hired into it), and unloader is probably the most physical job but requires the least thought of all after bagging smalls. 99% chance you'll be hired as a loader, which is the worst job available, at least most would agree.
