[QUOTE="ManInBrown, post: 1115190, member: 46614"] Here's my thing. I have no problem being a seasonal driver for years. However long it takes. If I have to be a seasonal driver for 5 years I'm fine with that to hopefully get to the end game(being hired permanent). I can handle being laid off 5 months a year. I'll figure something out to do in those 5 months. If I'm correct seasonals make a little over 16.00 an hour I think? That's a couple dollars less an hour then I make at Express. The not having medical insurance is going to hurt bad. All I can do is hope I don't get sick. I'm a healthy person in good shape so that is a +. [B]My big concern is when I interviewed for the seasonal position last year the HR person who did the interviews said there is no coming back the following year. You work 2 seasons and that is it.
