No openings at ups right now .Got offered a part time courier job at FedEx. I already have a full time job that pays a dollar more than FedEx. Should i just wait till ups opens up?

I applied with fedex at same time as ups. Fedex turned me down but ups gave me an opportunity and i'm glad it worked out that way

I have had a UPS PT job for over 37 years and a bunch of other FT and PT jobs including 22 years in my states National Guard and still putting away money for retirement and a daughter that we just moved to Austin Texas for her masters in something or another and paid the house off 20 years ago. Does that mean I am a career PT Car Washer or is this just a job? To me it is just a job. When I get tired of this job I will just find another.

Keep in mind you'll have to work about 4-10 years p/t inside the building before you'll earn enough seniority to be a driver. You would have excellent medical benefits after the first part time year, but not great pay. It's a good job to start when your young being that it is very physically demanding... but I've seen many drivers retire with a 25 year pension that didn't start driving till about age 40.

I talked to a guy here at HARPA yesterday that has been on preload about 3 weeks and starts his driving classes next week. Apparently we need drivers here.
