[QUOTE="That Guy In Brown, post: 1470899, member: 56328"] NEnewbie, I can't answer many of your questions because I'm also a new helper and like you I don't know or understand many the internal workings of the UPS helper program. What I can tell you is to try to keep your spirits up and don't get disheartened. The job's not working out exactly as I thought it would either, but the saving grace for me has been the fact that I've been with the same driver for all of my shifts and he's wonderful. The driver helper coordinators I deal with every morning are also great and I actually look forward to talking to them everyday. I WOULD feel comfortable asking them questions or expressing concerns. Do you not feel comfortable enough with them to just say, "What's going on there, why am I not getting work?" Also, do you have that first driver's number (the one you really got along with)? You don't want to overstep your bounds, but if you really liked him and he really liked you, maybe you could call him and let him know you're having a hard time getting work. I can't say for sure but I get the feeling (in my hub at least) that no matter how many or how few packages are on the truck, if a driver really wants you with him for a shift, he'll get you.
