[QUOTE="MattM, post: 4284910, member: 53192"] Lots of helper drama at my building. When they need you, you have to answer and drop everything you are doing. If they don't need you, you still have to be on call for the entire day. One dependable guy missed a call and called back within 2 minutes, and they gave his helper route to someone else. Many call while we are still on our air Shift. They expect us to clock out early or something? I think we're down to maybe 4-5 helpers who get anywhere from 3 to 8 hours a day, on top of the 4-5 in the hub. Most drive considerably out of their way at odd hours. We had 15-20 sign up initially. I'd do it if they could get me with a guy in my neighborhood. But they loved dispatching me half way across the city for a undetermined time frame. Sometimes it was 2 hours. Sometimes 7-8. 9 years later, it still hasn't changed for the better. They're still disorganized. Good luck. You may get a call. Be ready lol. My first peak, I was used for two days. I was on call for 5 weeks. Nice $100 check that year lol. Get in good with a driver and try to only have contact with him. Dispatch is a joke. [/QUOTE]
