I feel your pain brother, I lost my full time job shipping medical supplies right after Xmas. I finally just got hired today at a tractor and landscaping store. If you knew me, you'd know I have no clue about tractors. Oh well. I am grateful for the full time job they've given me that the past 6 interviews wouldn't because of UPS. It's tough, don't give up, and try to stay busy.

I work part time in medical billing for a pretty great company, from day one they gave me 3 weeks paid vacation and paid holidays, and are very flexible around my UPS schedule. I also work about 10 hours a week as an independent contractor in merchandising for a dairy company. It's a lot of hours but I'm thankful to be able to live comfortably while I build seniority. Most of the guys I work with are in landscaping, school, or try and pick up doubles on our 2nd sort.

Oh Yeah
When i worked preload back in the day from 5am to 9am, i waited tables at a pizza joint on fri nite sat nite and sunday double. I used to make at least 300 for the weekend and that was a bad weekend for me. I usually made at least 400 to 475 and it was easy dude. Waiting tables is easy,as long as you have a good personality and hustle and keep in the back of your mind your their to make money youll be good. I worked there for 13 years on and off. It helped that i pretty much did everything in there so i was pretty versatile about the skill level i posessed. And me and the general manager were real tight as well as the owner. Right before i went driving they offered me 50k to stay and be in management, but i had to turn it down. I knew the futurethere probably wasnt as secure as it is with UPS. They were cool though and told me if i ever wanted to go back the door would be open for me. Who knows i may go back in 14 years wen i retire. Makes more sense to go to a part time job where you know your going to make more hourly with something like tips than a straight hourly job you know. Good luck bro

Check into get licensed in home appraisals or home inspections. It involves taking a few classes and working with someone licensed. It'll allow you to work at your own hours. Study for realtors license, learn a trade to have something to fall back on later. I know some pter's that work at ups in the am and fedx in the pm.

I might do that when I retire. 50 bucks a week. Not talking about the stay home dad part.

Full time slacker.
I've been looking for something the last 6 months but I'm nowhere near desperate enough to work for minimum wage - I only have to support myself (no wife and kids) but I'm on a shoe-string budget and want to start blasting howitzer-sized holes in my student loans. The job market in my area is atrocious; while going through classifieds yesterday, I found a $7.25/hr gig sorting through trash (WTF?) and another $8.50/hr production line job that required the applicant to be bilingual.. I'm not using my Spanish skills for UPS starting pay.
