[QUOTE="raceanoncr, post: 909872, member: 6408"] Boonie, usually seasonal drivers are SEASONED drivers. Notice I didn't say GOOD, I just said SEASONED. UPS usually doesn't spend as much training time on seasonal as what will become permanant drivers so usually want some that have been behind the wheel some. Now, before everyone gets their hackles up and says that ain't so, notice I said, "USUALLY". It may or may not be the case in your part of the country but it has been here in the Midwest. Here, I have never seen a "noob" straight out of school get a job. "Part-time position"? Here, as well as most parts of the country, there are no "part-time feeder drivers". You may have some PTers that fill in for regular driver on occasion or FT package drivers that will fill in for a vacationing feeder driver but there are no regular PT drivers. All feeder work is FT. As was said, if you want a feeder career at UPS, you best bet is to become a FT package or delivery driver but then the wait is usually incredibly long. Again, I say, HERE and USUALLY. This may not be the case at you location. It surely wouldn't hurt to try, tho. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
