[QUOTE="letticesandwich, post: 1471935, member: 48588"] For me, I was laid off as a seasonal preloader Christmas Eve. It kinda stung but a part time sup said just wait. Hired Permanently part time the following May. Year later signed the bid list for driver and now have 6 months seniority for driving. For the OP or any seasonal preload, even if laid off at Christmas, stick it out. I now have a job with benefits, pension, 401k and great income potential coming from a seasonal preload position. About preload though, it is a beast. I always put load was acceptable even if it was :censored:, just because of the experience. Put 500 pieces in a tiny truck, then dig through it for ad cuts at 8:30 in the morning. While pulling irregs off the belt, making space for a surprise bulk stop on another car. Get stacked out careful not to misload, and have 3 totes stacked to sort. Not everyday is like that, but you understand. Its not just put a package in a car. Man, I can still see 30 tires for Costco coming down the belt to an already packed truck. [/QUOTE]
