[QUOTE="whiskers, post: 797925, member: 33000"] First I would like to say hello to all. Ok, I am the only small-sorter at the center I work at. I am the low man on our local-sort, which seems strange to me, but that's because no one else on the sort wants this job. I was put on smalls my second day of work with about 5 mins of training. When i first started there were 2 of us doing smalls, but after the first peak season i worked my sup asked if i could handle all of the smalls by myself, being new and eager to make a good impression i replied "yes as long as we are not heavier than normal". Since then our volume has increased and have gone through another peak season doing both jobs at our smalls station. (we have a large cabinet type bin, and a large slide which is always overflowing with packages). on top this i'm required to float and help where needed (ie. pull package cars off the doors, help load, help unload). My question is, Should i be the only one on smalls or can i get my help back? Also i've been told that if you do smalls you are supposed to get a dollar raise, which is not the case for me, but was told that's because we are a satalitte center. Also i've heard that smalls are supposed to be containerized before coming down the belt, and all air packages are to be brought to the small-sort area which is not the case. thank you in advance for any replies.
