[QUOTE="HULKAMANIA, post: 985373, member: 36802"] Its such a shame that when we all start within this company that we all have this FEAR of what will happen IF we dont meet there USUALLY unrealistic expectations!!! I know for me knowledge when you come into this company is something YOU DONT HAVE AT ALL! You have no idea whats acceptable, what isnt, whats right or whats wrong in the eyes of the union and management. Part of that is probably our fault for not being informed, but somethings you just wont know until you have experience. Your health and safety is priority number 1 PERIOD! If you arent going to take care of your body, UPS sure isnt going to. I feel for this guy because I know exactly where he is coming from. If you feel like you are to the point of being too hot, you need to stop and cool down immediatly! I dont think very many people understand what happens when you become dehydrated. Your blood is what 75% water, the more you sweat the more water you lose. The more water you lose the thicker your blood becomes and the harder your heart has to work to pump it, that is why its called a heat stroke, keep that in mind and it will remind you to drink plenty of water. I totally understand you are wanting to make an impression on the bosses so it looks good for becomming a driver, Ive been there. The short of it though is show up to work, be safe, and with the way it works you will get your shot at driving as long as your driving record is clean and you are a person who shows up to work. Good Luck man just keep your head up and your nose clean and you will do fine! [/QUOTE]
