[QUOTE="Casual4Life, post: 1026362, member: 43453"] Hey there Dereks, I also am in CT and going on my 5th season as a casual. That's right 5 seasons lmao. I should be upset and NO I am not a hack, they just havnt hired an "outsider" the past 2 years.Being in your spot I would expect to be put on a holiday business route eventually. Holiday routes are not created in October so you will probably learn a few routes and get sent home once in a while. Try and learn as many routes as you can so you can work if thats what you want. They tend to give all the full timers trucks full of house calls all day with helpers and put the seasonal help on business routes once the stuff hits the fan and volume skyrockets. Once you find out what route your going to be on definetly learn the layout/streets & businesses. After the first 3 to 4 days it will become much easier. As far as the off season, it starts usually on January 1st (we were held over for the first 2 weeks in January last year) and goes until June 1st. You can file for unemployment or if your lucky find another job. Lastly, I think I drove that same truck hahaha.....I tried to put it out of its misery but those things run forever. [/QUOTE]
