[QUOTE="opie, post: 52484"] Yes, upslocal480, all loaders must read, scan and load every package. And they must check for missorts too. I'm not sure how many trailers we have to load. Maybe just one, but I'm not sure. What is a "PD"? Today was my first taste, supposedly with a "trainer". Those guys in the green shirts, but another kid not in a green shirt trained us. Basically telling us how to load and supervising us. I was loading with another new hire. On the red belt, which is considered to be pretty rough. I was told in my classes, that we wouldn't be thrown out there. But, we were. It was hard work, I worked up a sweat. My back is sore and my elbow etc. But, I guess my opinion as of now, it isn't that bad. We'll see as time goes along how I feel about working at UPS. I talked with the HR manager, and I'm sure that I will want to work the preload/Eary AM shift, because of the tuition reimursement and extra pay. Though preload is totally different so I might have to get retrained. - Frustrated, I would take the seasonal opportunity. Maybe you can get a permanent job if you do well and if some people "turn over". 45 miles is a long drive, there is no UPS Hub closer to you? Good luck. [/QUOTE]
