[QUOTE="FAVREFAN, post: 972930, member: 13078"] All for minimum or near minimum wage in most states. 2-5 weeks. lol. Surprised they didn't call you on your way home. Who wants to work here anymore? Around where I am, only the college kids who get tuition assistance want the job. After Union dues, taxes and gas......you'll be working nearly for free. Go work in a climate controlled environment somewhere that pays more and offers discounts or free food or something. For the naysayers reading this before you get all UPS nationalistic on me........$8.50 x 4 = $34 - $7.75(taxes) = $26.25 x 5days = $131.25 - $5.50(union dues after he pays all the initiation fees) = $125.75 Now take out gas. Maybe $100 left? That's if he gets 20 hrs. He might get 17.50 hrs. This has gotten rediculous. Actually disgusting. That type of pay to work in 0 to 110 degree trailers? I wouldn't send my kid here. If you do, you don't love them. Let's see, Walmart for $9 p/hr in a climate controlled environment stocking shelves with a 10% discount or UPS in 0 or 110 degree trailers where they can sustain injuries, pay dues and have different hours everyday with as little as 17.5hrs. Gee tough call. The tuition assistance is all that keeps us staffed. [/QUOTE]
