So what is this winter gig anyway? Are you helping out Santa?
Yes, actually. Good friend owns FedEx route in next town over. Every year I finish my season around Thanksgiving. Every Thanksgiving he gets slammed for Christmas (his division of FedEx - Home Delivery- deals only in items bought via internet or catalog going to homes). So every Thanksgiving, he cuts his route in two, rents an extra truck and off I go. He takes vacation Mid-January, so I keep going. I usually take some of Feb. off and in March start gearing up for my new season. So, yes, I'm Santa's helper for December. 6 days a week, 14 hours a day is brutal, but i enjoy it and good cash money is, well, good cash money!
