[QUOTE="IzzyTheNose, post: 3572911, member: 15470"] I agree with this completely. I work a second, full-time job for In N Out, and what concerns me , is that I've been working for In N Out for less than 2 years (a couple months shy of my anniversary), and my payrate is a little over a dollar higher than my payrate at UPS, yet I've been working for Brown for 10 years. The way things are structured, I'll be forced to stay part-time, because finally landing that full-time bid will likely mean I'll get something like load/unload, and I don't want to have to load/unload for 8 hours when I'm in my 40's/50's. So even when I finally retire from UPS, I'll still have that full-time job, working for In N Out, because I can't survive on a part-timers pension. The benefits are great at UPS, but the pay and the full-time opportunities stink. At my building, a 15 year wait for an inside full-time position is the minimum. And I know enough drivers to be filled with the belief that driving isn't a better solution for my situation. The hours might be comparable to what I'm working two jobs, but the stress and the negative environment, are not. [/QUOTE]
