Unfortunately your at their Beck and call... must of the guys here say they did like pizza or auto parts delivery.. knew someone that owned a landscape business.. things easily attainable, but can peace out at a moment's notice if needed
it won't matter unless he needs an air driver. You're not a TCD so you can't just ask to cover routes. Other cover drivers who are qualified could file on you driving. There's an actual process to TCD where you go through a training route and a packet. It isn't just you doing whatever route is open. You're too new for that. In the southern, the classifications are FT, TCD and air drivers. You have to be qualified in the classification you want to work. It's not interchangeable. You don't get the same rights as FT as a TCD and you don't get the same as a TCD when you're just an air driver.
what is TCD? I just got hired as a permanent full time driver. as curious what TCD is
Aren't they labeled as utility drivers?
ing suck at driving jesus christ!I passed the driving test!! Man, driving in Brooklyn is the worst! Brooklyn people
Tomorrow ill do the 5s and 10s and 8s and 5s and 6s and 8s (Yea its not just the 5s and 10s anymore according to the instructor) thankfully i know it all by heart.
Heres hoping I can at least do good enough during the holidays to make them hire me again after January...
OT after 5 hours of work even for a new hire. Double shifters can easily make $1k to 1.5k a week during Peak. Most I ever made was just short of $2k.
That's definitely not what I had to learn. That's a piece of cake compared lol
@Abomb2593 & @BigD Bri : questions about OT pay & double shifting are best answered by reading your specific Union Contract Supplement (and/or Local Rider) and asking knowledgeable coworkers/shop stewards. Some Supplements have "weasel words" in them that let's the company pay OT after 8 hours, instead of after 5. As far as double shifting, there may be extra work sign up sheets; or they might simply be begging for help when your shift is ending and the next is starting. Definitely let your FT supervisor know you're interested in double shifting.
Yeah I have a question, I just started loading my first week as a new hire and my supervisor said I was slow and I had to sign a paper confirming that I was moving slow but I told him that it was my first week and he said you still have to sign it no matter what, I just want to know if this is true as a new hire that just stared
Don't sign anything without union representation present! Did you read what you signed? It sounds like he got you to sign admitting you were intentionally working slow... I would have said "No, but I'll sign a piece of paper saying I was working as fast as possible especially with it being my first week"
Yeah i know he said I had too because it was a ratio of how many packages I was packing per hour, I'm not part of the union yet this is only my first actual whole week of working
