[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 1261949, member: 7966"] There is no career at UPS as a Union employee. There are hard manual jobs that pay well due to the sacrifice of your body ( and mind as you've seen on here) and an expectation pushing yourself to extreme productivity. The only Union job at UPS that one could consider a career-type job is a Feeder Driver (CDL Tractor-Trailer). UPS does offer one the ability after a period of time to make very good money - Full-timer. One thing I think I noticed ... you seem to think there is a career with UPS that will allow you to work at UPS your entire work lifetime. That is a concept that died out decades ago at most Corporations. It has died out as a possibility at UPS in the last couple of decades. UPS may offer one opportunities in a career path if you have a degree in a field in which they have a need. There should be no expectation that anyone in a career path at UPS will work for UPS for their entire work lifetime. That is not the nature of careers ... one should plan to work for at least 5 companies/corporations during their work lifetime in a career. It is common to start out for a company and work at a couple of other companies and then return to your first company. [/QUOTE]
