[QUOTE="sortaisle, post: 435318, member: 17605"] As I understood it, UPS doesn't hire seasonals for inside the building anymore, only for driver helpers. His performance won't matter much. As to driver training saves, it's not true that everyone flunks out. Everyone you've talked to flunked out. It's not an impossible class. It's a hard class, but entirely passable. Before you get to go to driver school, they take you for a road test to see if you know how to drive a stick and if you follow traffic laws. Then it's a week of CBT's (computer based training) with some driving and delivery techniques thrown in. There's a couple thousand acronyms to learn (seriously, it seems that way). Don't sweat it brother, it's a long way off. See if you can get on Saturday air. And when your their, the best thing to learn is your start and stop routine. Everything is one slow fluid move, know exactly how many packages your getting knowing where they are. The one that'll help you the most is start up. On your way back to the truck, know what your next stop is, get up the steps put down your DIAD, get your key in the ignition and slapping your seat belt on all in the space of a few seconds. UPS wants you to have this down to 7 seconds. If your good, you can do it in probably 3. It seriously saves you time. [/QUOTE]
