[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 865030, member: 18225"] Worked as a casual for about two months, then made my thirty days. Been driving ever since (hard to get a day off, in fact). Brownedout is right, get hired first, work driving for a year, then make decisions about going into management. "Is there really a chance to make management?" Absolutely, and probably more or less immediately. Just know what you're getting into. Right now you're a new casual, so days off will be often. But if you keep showing up, and keep learning routes, and keep learning from drivers, you're chances will be good. Out of six casuals hired last year in my center, only two are still around, and by now they've made their thirty days. I was one of twelve casuals hired three years ago, only two of us are still around. In terms of tips and tricks or 'learning the easy way', nothing about UPS is easy, hourly or management. They hire casuals around this time to get them in shape for 'December'. Show up, don't call in, work hard, work safe, work smart, and if there is actually an open slot (UPS hires more casuals than it intends on keeping), then you have a shot. Welcome to the Brown Army.
