[QUOTE="abc123, post: 504273, member: 20245"] I'm in small sorts, and I absolutely love my job. My coworkers and I all have fun, talk to each other and stuff. And we get our job done. I kind of make a game out of it. I try to see how many packages i can fit into one bag. I love checking how many packages I've scanned at the end of the night. My part time supe is nice and helpful. Every Tuesday we have a little 10 minute meeting where our full time supe(who's really nice and approachable and knows everyone's name) announces the first 4 or 5 people who had the best frequency for the week and we get jackets or tshirts or hats. It's fun to compete and try to get that tshirt, even if it is just a tshirt. I mean, I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't get paid for it, but I do and I get paid nicely. Even if some people think 9.50 is **** pay, I'm just a college student, and I don't have a degree, yet. And speaking of being a college student, UPS pays for 3 grand a year of my education. That pays for my entire community college tuition. And even though, I am in smalls, when you fill those bags with 30, 5-pound packages, they get pretty heavy so I do get a little bit of a workout, for free. The only thing I DONT like about my job is I don't get as many hours as I wish I could. I'd rather be working like 5-6 hours a day instead of 3.5-4. But, thats the economy for you. Everyone's circumstances are different though, I must just be lucky. [/QUOTE]
