[QUOTE="StackedOut’n’Vibing, post: 5448342, member: 100731"] I’ve been debating this as well but don’t think I will swap from preload to supe. At my hub the PT supes make $2 more than the loaders, but they get a lot more hours. Major downsides are: 1) gotta wear a silly polo shirt so everyone knows you’re in mgmt 2) you’re the kicking dog of literally everyone above you 3) can’t put in both headphones and disassociate at work while listening to audio books, podcasts, music 4) have to deal with internal hub politics 5) job security is gone without the union I’d rather pay my dues and have the stability of knowing I’m working X amount of hours every week and not have to put up with any pressure from higher ups trying to get their production numbers up. As a lowly preloader I know what’s expected and can plan the rest of my life accordingly around that. Even when the volume is high I know I just have to keep going at a steady pace and there’s literally no stress. Easiest job in the world once your body adjusts to it. Becoming a supe would take all that away for what, $2 more and some extra hours? No thanks [/QUOTE]
