[QUOTE="Southwestern, post: 912534, member: 33209"] While I agree with you, the union doesn't (yay for Hoffa). Much has been written about UPS dumping loads at helpers' homes (or a neutral location) and having the helpers deliver the packages through bicycle (peddling as much as 200 lbs. at once -- for $8.50/hour!), golf cart or foot. At my center, UPS dumped two 48' trailers at a local mall and heaps of helpers deliver from them; the practice ended only because the mall wasn't happy the trailers were parked there all day and demanded extortion-rate rent. One thing I've pondered about helpers: as an employee in the Central States region, I always earned $11.66 (later $12.88) when I worked as a helper, even though my inside wage had swelled beyond $20. For those inside employees living outside the Central States, do you earn your inside wage when you help? Or is it just $8.50/hour? [/QUOTE]
