[QUOTE="FS3, post: 1298264, member: 52531"] Thanks for that. So, ballpark, how often do you go over 27.5 a week and how much would you say is your average hrs a week? I'm going to be on a similar schedule (5-10pm, give or take). My background came back and I just got my offer this morning. I kinda think that based on what I heard, though the local sort sup position has more potential for upward mobility learning the system, I'm not sure if it's the right first step to make. The PCS sounds good for what I need now and to break into learning the place. I've already been told they will move people around into other positions at this center, so I could go to the local sort later and learn that. Right now, I'm not looking that far down the road and worrying about driving, going union, etc. I just need some modicum of reasonably expected hours and pay. I do have my own side from home business that makes some money in summer, and I have a couple of recurring summer camp teaching gigs, so I have other things going on. I'm not entirely dependent on whether UPS becomes a career. I asked the HR rep this morning though, and she told me I would be paid for hours over 27.5, they would just be paid straight hourly and not as time and a half. Well, that's what I expected anyway. That's fine with me. I won't work for free, nope. If I was told I could work 32hrs and only be paid for 27.5 then that would be a deal breaker for me. [/QUOTE]
