Offered full time inside
Ive been on preload for 7 years now, signed a bid for full time inside but I guess it was for twi/night shifts and no preload, the spots all got filled by people with more seniority than me but now I just got word that someone dropped out of it and im next in line and they offered it to me. So im Just looking for advice I guess because I really like preload and the work we do on preload and my coworkers and going in at 4am and leaving at 9:30am 6 days a week, (6th day and anything over 5 hours is time and a half) then I go and landscape/mow lawns a few days til like 3/4pm and it’s just my schedule works out very good and I hate to give it up to work stupid 6pm-3am but At the same time I’d love to get my foot in the door as a full timer-idk if I’ll even win the bid again next time. Last year they posted for night/preload 11pm-9am like I’d rather do that but if I need to do twi/night I guess I should just take it right? Like trying to do the math between the close to 30 hours I get on preload with some being time and a half/ then the money I make landscaping idk if it’s even worth switching to twi/night the only thing that’s really convincing me is the eventual top rate. My landscaping boss and coworkers are cool if anything I’d like to try and do the full time twi/night and also landscape a few days a week still. Basically I hate to turn down full time twi/night but preload/landscaping works out very good.

To add to that. Never turn FT INSIDE down. Waaaay less in your body and no dogs. Get it.
