If I’m on my 2nd year as a 22.4 working on my progression rate and I bid into a RCPD spot do I start back at 1 year progression on a RCPD ? I was hoping I stay at 2nd year and get too rate next year as RCPD

If I’m on my 3rd year as a 22.4 working on my progression rate and I bid into a RCPD spot do I start back at 1 year progression on a RCPD ? I was hoping I stay at 3Rd year and get too rate next year as RCPD

You'll keep your progression credit and rate.

Is that list now the 22.4 list?

I'm all out... I'm pretty sure that was you I saw on the boat across my lake, in the pink bikini sitting on Billy's lap

I still can't believe my local pushed that 22.4

What a joke

Idk if anybody answered ur question. But from my gatherings 22.4 max out at $34.79 after 4 years. RCPD, $38.46-40.79 could be (45.00)

22.4 is the same job as rpcd for less money and no protections. Dont do it.

you have to understand the different contracts drivers work under. its very tedious and confusing and they count-on you being absolutely clueless about it. collective bargaining agreements are not exclusive to ups and are very dense, like almost a constitution dense. So you have to try to wrapyour head around it.

Going from 22.4 to full time is increasingly becoming a myth. The company wants to use 22.4 a few years, rinse and repeat. In the first 30 days, unless your center manager "likes you" and u dont hit anything u will then be "secure".

Most supervisors wont demonstrate to you or test you on how to actually be safe, such as: tightening your handbrake, curbing wheels, double checking truck on slopes and hills, etc. ask other drivers to show you their pretrip and methods. when ur on your on roads with a sup specifically ask them to demonstrate all parking methods.

good luck.

bring a large dedicated pee jug. and dollars / change for cups of ice in the heat. for a few bucks
leas try amazon, smaller vans, a/c. Not as good long term but ups is brutal for $20.50 hourly without any upward trajectory for years. the brutality and careless management and insane huge heavy items at apartments especially just isnt worth it imo.

it will be your life, its not a job its a life. study coding something in tech. then work for ups.

Thank you Mr I worked there for a short time then I got fired
