Topic.. self explanatory.. I mean its true that they cut back on some bonus they use to give to part time sups. Is there any hope of getting anything back? I hope so..
I was a part timer supervisor over 30 years ago. In my opinion, tt has always been the least appreciated job at UPS. You are in between. Stuck in limbo between management and hourly....
That being said, things are no different today than then. I was told to NOT count on UPS as a career. I was told that there were really no opportunity. Given advice to get a degree and look elsewhere.
30 years later, that was great advice. Being a part time supervisor is a great job while going to school. I knew so much more than others because of the "management" work I did at UPS. I was able to bridge the academic teachings of the professors to real world business issues I saw every day.
When I graduated, UPS became an option for full time management. I chose that path and am glad I did. It has been a great 35 year career.
So, I'm not sure what "bonus" you lost? If it was your 1/2 month, that was added to your check as Hoax said.
As far as future for p/t sups, the advice and future is the same as it was for me. Prepare yourself for a career outside of UPS, and then see what happens inside. If you take the job seriosly. Learn all you can. Work hard and honestly. You will be head ans shoulders above others.
Best of luck.
