Is a Seasonal Delivery Driver's helper a good job to get extra money

[Beerus the Destroyer]

Is it fun to be a Driver's helper for Peak Season?. How many hours a day do they work on average? And what's the job like and how can I get that job?.

 

[cosmo1]

No.

Don't know.

Don't bother.

If you enjoy being abused and underpaid.

As many hours that the driver can stand them.

Hell, and why would you?

They're promising helpers a $150/week attendance bonus here. I didn't realize it was that bad. I actually don't mind this bonus since it only applies to seasonal positions. Still not enough to get me to do Preload and helper. If I could ditch my regular responsibilities until after Christmas to be a helper, then I'd do it. Never gonna do both.

It's a wonderful job, apply at HR. You will get to see first hand the planning and logistics that go into spreading Christmas joy to all.

If I were a permanent PTer I would be very upset.

It isn't boring and time passes quickly. I guess it depends on what you consider fun. I've come across crazy and funny situations being a driver helper. You will get sore after a while as you won't be used to using a lot of your muscles. I use creatine to keep the pain to a minimum. Basically you just meet up with a driver on their route at a meet point and help deliver packages to mostly residences. You might see some businesses as well. I work on average 5 hours. As time gets closer to Christmas Eve, the hours have the potential to get longer. Although it depends on the route and the driver you end up getting on how many hours you will get.

Maybe not fun, but a good experience. And you could list it on your resume if you are ever looking for a permanent position. Hard work, good workout. Hey and if you don't have a job, be a driver helper!

I'm furious over the $75/week attendance bonus for all 2016 hires. I don't mind the driver helper bonus because anyone can get it...As long as they become a helper.

 

[Box Ox]

Yes, it's a blast. Come be my helper and we'll set off on glorious adventures late into the night, every night.

I don't blame you one bit as I would also be quite upset.

 

[brownmonster]

I'm upset because I only made $75 today in bonus. I'm gettting old.

Is 39 years PT seniority permanent? Certainly does not feel like it by the way I am treated.
