[QUOTE="Gear, post: 2055365, member: 60511"] You are having reservations about taking the job after the things you have heard. -Its important to know most things you heard are false. Rumors are the #1 source of info here at UPS. Plus you are currently a supervisor which makes you the "enemy". Hourly guys will be annoyed at you getting a driver position before them, so they probably will exaggerate stories. You are worried about the 30 day probation period for a driver position. -You are not trying out for the Navy SEALs. Look at some of the drivers, you can make it. Sorry guys, but its true. You will always be the Super Elite, Special Forces Driver in your head. We can lose our jobs for any little thing. -Rumor, we pay union dues. If this was true management would fire everyone before they hit top rate. Being fired and loosing you job are 2 different things. People get fired and get their jobs back. Ask around when the last person LOST their job. No union member should be worried about losing their job. My building has a strong Teamster local, some guys are proud of how many times they have been fired. Union jobs are the best jobs. Good luck. FYI- I am not a driver. But I am a UPSer who hasnt lost touch with reality. [/QUOTE]
