[QUOTE="astonishing, post: 4664284, member: 84078"] Newb here to the Cafe and 1st post. Quick backstory, I've already cut my teeth and paid my dues in the logistics world with days of 100+ stops and 300+ pieces (half of which weighed 50 lbs or more), finishing by 4pm with a start time of 8:30am because of business hours. People wanted to leave before 5 to beat rush hour traffic. Couldnt fault them there btw. I would also clock in and load trucks from 1am to 7am because management didnt understand the importance of staffing and duped me into thinking I would eventually take over for the departing night shift supervisor. He never left. I got aggravated and did. Backstory over, I accepted a seasonal driving position thinking it was a FT combo driver position. Clearly it was the ole bait n switch, but I'm not necessarily surprised given the fustercluck I've seen with HR and management so far. My question is, what is the expected stop count for seasonals during peak? What are the graded metrics? And lastly, since I'm not following a pipe dream of getting hired and do not anticipate it no matter how hard I work, just how screwed are seasonals? [/QUOTE]
