[QUOTE="ZeroHandicapper, post: 4291024, member: 78261"] I agree with you about training. I am 45 and there for only permanent PT, for the benefits. They could not even pay me and I would not care, just there for the benefits. That being said the training was very poor, but thank goodness the drivers actually gave me a ton of tips the first week and continue to do so if needed. I picked it up pretty fast and I am fortunate to have a good work ethic and care about the drivers and company as a whole ( I think no matter where you work, you should always want it to grow and succeed). The thing I have realized is they brought seasonal people in about a week too late. They need a good week of training at a slower rate for sure before peak really hit. I do feel bad for some of the new kids who are there and have never really worked in the real world. All they hear are negative things and never positive. You can still yell and talk negatively, but back it up with some positive reinforcement. I have never heard anything positive from our supervisors and one of them has never smiled or laughed in the 6 weeks I have been there (no joke). Tell us about the bad, but also tell us some good. Some supervisors are not liked and would be if they would win the employees over. I am not saying kill them with kindness, but in the words of Proximo form Gladiator "I wasn't the best because I killed quickly. I was the best because the crowd loved me. Win the crowd. And you will win your freedom." Sups would win their freedom if they won over their employees. [/QUOTE]
