[QUOTE="jdoff, post: 2251906, member: 58014"] Sadly this is the way most companies in America are handling the demand for higher wages and benefits. They'll give you a high starting wage but no possibility of full time. Full Time jobs aren't 40 hours anymore either, more like 50+. I've seen the beginning of this starting with getting rid of pick up routes off of normal delivery routes and hiring part timers to do that. It's only going to expand from there. Why pay a high wage to a veteran courier who works 40 hours when you can split the routes into part time? Possibly even splitting the day between morning and afternoon. For those of you not listening or denying this, wake up. It's already started and will not get better. Our politicians have told us that if you want a career you have to go to college otherwise it's working 3 jobs to support yourself. The days of the working man are over and it's mostly due to the disappearance of unions, which we have our lovely politicians to thank for. [/QUOTE]
