hello everyone!
So I've been a PT package handler since last August and was asked if I was interested in becoming a PT Supervisor. At first I was like...Me? what the? Anyway, After driver helping peak, I really got a feel for what you drivers go through and the bs that comes along with it. I met some really cool drivers who all had different opinions/concern about the way things were ran at our REALLY small hub. So I thought to myself, "Damn, wish I could help out all the drivers, other than those whose trucks I load"
Yes, I know drivers make a ton more than I do. But I also understand that they have dedicated blood, sweat, and tears to the job and have lost some valuable time that no amount of money can buy back. I want to hopefully move up to management some day to just be able to help and get the job done. Currently in college btw, will be done next year.
I know the position is salary and I would get out of the union. However my hub manager told me that if I have to work more than the 27 1/2 I get salary for, that I will get paid for it. Is this true? Than why not make the PT supervisors hourly instead? is OT the reason? Also, whats PT Supervisor check look like (about)
Im hoping you guys can give me some advice.
