Christmas Time Preload - Whats it Like?

[hondo]

Do helpers make more then Preload? I work preload and make $11 would it be the same or would i make more/less?

Helper pay varies. It will be covered under your regional supplement or local riders/addenda. As well as when overtime (1.5x or time-and-a-half) starts.

Check with your shop steward or a knowledgeable coworker; or better yet, get your own copy of the contract and read it.

$8.50 in the South.

I believe Austin.Was.My.Hero was the one wishing for snow. PT car washer is talking about making the best of a situation out of his control.

He claimed not so dumb to wish for it. My interpretation though, I guess.

I don't think it can be lower than $10.10, since we are a government contractor, we have a $10.10 minimum wage.

I cant believe I'd get paid less being a helper than preloading but oh well itll be overtime mostly anyways

Ahhh Christmas....a month of doing nothing but sleeping and going to work. And being too tired to do anything else....lol

 

[Re-Raise]

That is one of the stupidest things I have read for a UPSer to say.

It won't be long before he says something dumber.

Christmas for me isn't much different than any other time of the year. I can work extra weekend sorts for $45/hr, which is nice. Otherwise still 40-45 hour weeks.

We had a lot of weather delays a couple years ago, would rather that not happen again, and you are wishing for it.

Don't have to wish for snow. Snow just happens every winter. You just learn to deal with it. Ice on the other hand is something I don't like to see.

Last time there was ice on my road I thought it was snow.. So i tried to drift in it and it was ice so it turned my truck about 180 degrees into my ditch

I tend to think of Christmas preload at my center as an 8-10 hour loop of the destruction of Mordor scene near the end of the third Lord of the Rings movie. I'll take a slightly longer day in a blown out package car any time.

Christmas time is pretty busy, but at least we can look forward to their gift of a free turkey

We have a choice. A goose or turkey.
Had to give up our raises though.. I chose the goose.

Not Christmas time. January, February, March yes, but not December, for the most part.
