[QUOTE="klein, post: 635470, member: 23950"] If money is the only keyfactor, by far UPS is the better deal. But, if you want to live more of a normal life, (such as getting home in a decent time, more vacation and sick days), then stick with the postoffice. Besides all that, UPS is heavier lifting work, and most likely more stressful. I recently had an interview with Canada Post, same thing. As a rural carrier. I like thier bennies and the fact, they don't work on an hourly wage, but rather a salary, determend by which route you work. (larger route = more salary). Also, comes with flexible hrs of work. (start early, off work early or skip lunch also home earlier, faster you work, the faster you'll be home, etc). Some are done by noon here or just shortly after. You'll never see that at UPS. And UPS likes to hand out written warnings and suspensions, also fast to fire someone. Over little things. As you may know, if you read some of the postings here, from people been fired, then rehired, or not. But, if you are money hungry, then, like I said - go UPS. Keep in mind, no bennies for 1 yr, or 18 mths for family, less starting rate, and 30 or 36 mths to receive full rate. And only 2 weeks vacation for the first 5 years. [/QUOTE]
