I retired from UPS as a division manager. You'll see there is quite a diverse and lively crowd on this site. |

Wow, congrats to you! I am sure you can keep your principles and values in a little box that you leave in your car before work; over time you might forget you ever had them. I hope being a sup works out for you.
To answer the question I am a preloader.

Welcome to the Brown Cafe. I have been working at UPS ever since I can remember and am currently a Package Car Driver in the Atlanta area. What do you do at UPS and where do you live? |

Good luck, Westside!

I was a preloader for almost 3 yrs before now | Congrats, Westside!!!! GET OUT AFTER YOU GET A COUPLE YEARS OF EXPERIENCE!!!! I think the average I've seen in job ads is about 2 years. UPS isn't the "career" management job it once was. Quote:

To answer the question I am a preloader. | Yeah, Aspen, I'd have to agree. Then again, p/t management at our building is "special." Full-time management is kinda 50-50.
To answer the question, I'm a sorter on the Primary (inbounds/unload).

When people see UPS supe for 1-2 years it really makes the difference between $6,000 a year and $36,000 |

If I found out I could no longer drive because of a beat up body, I would go into management, just for the exp. Then in a few years I would go look for another job that you did not have to put in 90 hours a week while making less than the people you are in charge of. JMO. |

i wonder if there is any other than driver here lol | This thread got a little confusing. For a moment there I thought it was about West going into mgt. West you seem like a hard and thoughtful worker. Im a little worried. So, many times I have seen the ones(sups) that don't compromise their values shown the door. I hope you wont be one of them. Yes, there are a few exceptions that make it. Like my girl Chan. Hi Chan. ( : Or some of the other cool(a little booty kissing going on here, LOL) sups on this site. Just maybe, you can be the point man for change. Change the part of UPS that needs to be changed for the better. Start with "Stop counts" and than the "Load" for starters.
Oh, sorry I almost forgot about the new member. My meds must be wearing off. LOL Kenmei, Welcome to the GREATEST SI | |
