[QUOTE="km3, post: 2391061, member: 56117"] Mid-November to mid-January, but in my experience, the worst of it is between Thanksgiving and Christmas day. How much money you'll make varies by your local practices. Where I am, helper and handler are two separate classifications, so overtime earned doing one job doesn't carry over to the other job. In other words, working a 13 hour day, 5 hours inside unloading or whatever, then going out for 8 hours as a helper, would result in no overtime at all since you didn't go beyond 5 hours as a package handler, and you didn't go beyond 8 hours as a helper. It's a no-brainer: You'll make way more money as a part-time employee inside, double or triple shifting than you would becoming a driver helper. But that's just my local, you'll have to figure out the intricacies of how it's doled out where you are from someone else who knows. [/QUOTE]
