[QUOTE="Cincypackagehandler, post: 1854454, member: 41728"] I did that this year from May until September. I was kind of secretive about it at first because I've been at UPS for 6 years and obviously I didn't want to get fired but after a while they noticed I was always tired everyday(I worked preload at FedEx and Day Sort at UPS) so I just told them what I was doing and they didn't care at all. It actually kind of worked to my advantage because when UPS found out I was working third shift I think they kind of felt bad for me and put me in some easier loads and one week said if I was too tired encouraged me to take a Friday off. (I declined) FedEx was a little less encouraging about me working at UPS. I told the guy who ran the sort at FedEx one time I did work at UPS and he just said in a jokingly but serious manner "I'm going to pretend you didn't tell me that because you're a good worker and I don't want to fire you". My gut would tell me if you come in everyday and do a good job neither company will want to fire you or be that upset about it because in this part time line of work these companies need as many good, dependable employees as they can get but I would tell your friend to keep it a secret just in case the bosses at either place are sticklers to the actual rules which state this is a fireable offense.
