[QUOTE="scratch, post: 128529, member: 1674"] I was sent a DIAD message today at 10:53 that said, "Where do you want to meet your Helper at 11AM?". I called the Center, and said "What the hell, its October!". A supervisor told me that he was sorry, "Tom" will actually start tomorrow. Its bad enough to walk in a store and see Christmas stuff before Halloween, but now this? HR has told my Center to start a couple of Helpers October 1, and there were three large boxes of Helper Uniforms in the office when I clocked out this afternoon. And I was told its not just for Peak Season. Does anybody know what this is about? Are Routes going to be cut out by loading up Drivers with Helpers? I went through four Helpers in just three weeks last December, and we were having a hard time getting them then. My delivery stops have not gone up, so of course stops will be pulled from another loop. If this is a new plan of some sort, the Drivers will be worn out by Thanksgiving and we will be out of Helpers before Peak. We have gotten about ten new Package Cars the last few months at my Hub, why don't they just put some Seasonal Drivers in the old cars like they used too?:confused1 [/QUOTE]
