[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1881793, member: 43436"] In my supplement, it states that regular, inside employee have first crack at helping positions and get to pick assignments by seniority. However, that never happens. Drivers typically get to pick their helpers, and management will typically pick its favorites to perform cushy jobs (e.g. malls). This is a battle I choose night to fight, since forcing yourself to work with a driver who doesn't want to work with you (nothing personal - he just wants to work with his kid) just doesn't end well. Despite the contract language. And despite the fact that they'll be the 1st ones to come on here and b!$ch the second they feel slightest by the contract. BUG says it best -- people only care about the contract when it benefits them. We use to have a 12 hour per day restriction but that was lifted a few years ago... I've generally worked 70-80 M-friend and it's miserable, you'll hate it and yourself more. But it does pay off financially. I'll also drop a few lbs., by virtue of not eating when I'm active (makes me ill). But 50 lbs.? Gotta be a big boy to lose that kinda weight in a few weeks... [/QUOTE]
