[QUOTE="another#, post: 105882, member: 4827"] Wow, you must be blind. My fleet of 29 trucks have 9 different engine types from 4 different engine manufacturers in them. Most mechanics at dealerships specialize and only work on one or two engines by one manufacturer. Not to mention that I have to cater to every little write-up, including some that are on non-existant problems. Sometimes I think the only screw that is loose is in the driver's head. I have worked as a mechanic at UPS for nearly 2 years and it is very challenging and unique. I have previously worked as a mechnic in the military and also at a OTR/LTL company and UPS is definately far more challenging than either of those jobs. I would not recommend taking a position as a mechanic at UPS if you are not experienced, and by experienced I mean at least 5-10 years working as a mechanic for a living. There is nobody to babysit you and tell you what to do and when, you must be able to work independently and manage your own fleet. [/QUOTE]
