All UPS facilities (that I know of) use a trunk line (one that dialed out of but not into) so you cant call us back with frivilous calls

Default Re: aww man..what happens if you miss a call from UPS for a job?

got a question. how did you find out a week later? and why did they not think it important enough to tell you.

secondly, your personal visit to the center would probably mean more than a phone call, which you cant seem to do anyway.

go, that way they can at least see you are interested and motivated. which to me means you really want the job.

but for all practical purposes, a phone call a week ago most likely means that the job has been filled by someone else that got the message.

i hope you are not too late. but then again, they look for people all the time.

It is impossible to reach ups unless you already know a valid phone number.
That's by design.

I missed a call. I called back first thing in the morning. They told me all the
positions have been filled. I didn't get hired for another year after that.

Life would be much easier if I was there to get that call. I'd have just enough
seniority to put me where I need to be.

trim/ grooming? i hope you are clean shaven, cause anything less that that as a driver helper is a no no.

wear something clean and comfortable. no tie. button up shirt will be ok. wear clean and polished shoes.

and get there early. nothing says you dont care as much as running late.

Sorry, but I am laughing my ass off at this thread. I would consider killing a small puppy to be able to be in the car with you your first day as a helper. If you don't get Gandhi as a driver I will be surprised if the driver does not kill you.
