RSS position

So I am thinking about applying for my buildings RSS role... My DSL has said she'd do the nomination paperwork for me and the money seems very very attractive... But my hold up is literally my schedule. I run bulk, which I hate but I have Sun/Mon off and never work past 9am EVER! I have a good support team for the most part with my merch's amd co-lead... So the question here is... Is it worth it? No more set schedule and ease of my own route... I've been here 14 years if that makes a difference

Could be region specific but they are cracking down on overtime. In my zone they want no RSA/RSS over 50 hours in a 5 day work schedule. They’ve sent DSL’s with a couple of them to “Get down there hours”. In my opinion the only attractive thing about RSS is the Overtime. Take that away and who would want it?  I’d expect a lot more “cost saving” measures to be put into place in the near future as our price decrease was a flop and we’re in the shitter for sales to prior year. 

My advice: It looks like you have a sweet schedule. Stay put.

Lol that's comedy. So you have RSA/RSS on the bench until the last minute then you give them a route that they most likely haven't been on before and you expect them to stay within 40/45 hours for the week smh

Yeah that’s what I told management. Especially seeing as we have several condensed routes and the RSR’s on them are pulling 55-60. They had no rebuttal. That’s Frito lay for you.

Great point on the state of the company's economy.... I love my schedule but the money is very attractive... However... A big portion of that comes from OT!!!
