[QUOTE="sorefeet, post: 1492563, member: 55752"] I was hired as a seasonal driver this October. When I applied I let HR & my center manager know that I have another job that runs from Feb-May that I do every year but if my peak driving worked out I would like to come back for summer peak. This morning one of my sups called me into his office & asked me if I was considering staying with UPS long term. He told me I should take a perm PT position to "get my foot in the door" & to talk to my center manager. My center manager told me they have a spot on preload for me after peak that I could work until my other job ends & then I could sign the TCD sheet & start driving again once volume picks up in the spring/summer. He said by going this route I would have benefits, better pay & be starting my driver progression & in the future if I decided to give up my other job we could talk about a FT position down the line. ( I know I should of asked my center manager these questions & not the internet but all I could think to say was "sounds great!, thank you" haha ) What rate of pay do TCD's earn in the Northeast? Do TCD's really start progression? I thought only FT drivers earned that? Is this a good sign for me if I want to drive FT eventually or do they offer anyone with a pulse the same deal for hard to fill preload positions? Do TCD's have any kind of seniority over seasonal drivers? Any draw back that anyone can think of by going this route? ( besides having to work preload? ) Thanks [/QUOTE]
