[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 178995, member: 1944"] I have to say I dont think that it is racially or minority that people dont get a job. In my center, we have both, but once they do not stay or qualify they are gone and UPS doesnt have to rehire in the quota, to fill a spot. The last crew who was hired for pt, most left. and the last few females waiting their way to the top(which is not what I would call it) have small children and it isnt a good idea for them or they are off on reasons medical, which I dont know. I would not reccomend full time in any position, unless it was staff where they get to go home at the same time every day. Mostly coz we start too late. If you have young children. And you want or need to be there. Maybe staff has more flexible hrs, I dont know for sure but I think so. But to be in operations, or a center manager, or sup, or driver, I would not have wanted to do it with small kids. I didnt have a husband, to attend what I didnt make, even if I had, there is a certain pride you can never regain by having missed those things. Even if your other half was there. Thats just my opinion. We have spoken here many times about equality, and I think we know, that not everyone can do it. As for myself, my kids were almost grown when I took on full time. Thank God for unanswered prayers that it didnt happen sooner. I dont know how you employees with children, female, male, black or white or hispanic do it. You would miss too much, and you can never get it back. [/QUOTE]
