So, I've been working for UPS for 3 months now. I started back in July as a preloader and was then moved to pick-off and I was told today that I am being moved to the route slide and part time clerk and then in December, I will become a full time clerk and drop the route slide... I'm just curious what the intentions of my supervisors are. Is this a promotion of sorts? Or am I just moving sideways? Can anyone who has clerked or worked on the route slide give me some info on what I can expect or how routing compares to being a pick off?

we only let the brainiacs work our route slide. You must be one of those intellects.

Seems like they have a lot of interest in moving you into whats probably a better position in the building you can either accept the move or ask how you were selected.

I wouldn't worry that some sup does not have the confidence you can do the job. UPSers have to prove theirselves every day.

I don't understand why they think they can give you a full time job in january. Seems like the job would be bid by seniority?

I agree with all of that. I think she meant she will be "full-time" as in all of her hours in one area, rather than split between areas, not as in a full-time 8 hr job. Though, I've heard stranger things ...
