[QUOTE="margaritaville, post: 1325805, member: 52501"] [B]Lets say your an air driver/hub employee and dont switch to fulltime til your 40. But been with the company since you were 20. In terms of retirement can u still retire at the same time as a fulltime driver who started driving in his 20s. Im just trying to understand this 20 + 30 retirement policy or whatever it is.[/B] [B]Random rambling:[/B] So i been working at UPS since 21 as an air driver. I live comfortably because i get called once a week atleast for top rate ground. Last year it was almost every day the second half the year. That may slow even more with all this new hiring. Basically i really enjoy my job as an on call driver. The hubs lame but driving is fun. However, i can go fulltime now. But im being a pusillanimous because i dont want to lose all my senority and have no social life. Since all the fulltime drivers seem to hate their job when i love going out driving when im called.

When im living comfortably now but making less per year than a fulltime driver. And my pay is extremely inconsistant. I can make from 250 to 1600 dollars (after taxes) a week depending if they call me every day or not at all.
