I'm a part time pickup courier, currently getting my full 30 hrs/week. I was just offered a FO swing driver position and I'm hoping someone here can offer some insight into that job. The hiring manager told me that it will average 20-25 hours a week, with some opportunities for extra hours (over 30) but also some weeks getting only minimums. I was also told that it's likely I would be trained for a class B, and that prospect is appealing.
There may be an opportunity at my station soon: We're getting 3 dropbox routes from the ramp (with couriers), and they're creating a new pt swing position to help cover. It's possible I would be the top bid on that, but not guaranteed obviously.
Also, I really like my station. It's close to home, my workgroup is great, and we have a good manager. The commute to the ramp isn't too bad, but I'd have to drive every day, (I can bike or bus to my current station.) and of course there's the getting up at 0400...
Advice?
