[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 4130892, member: 43436"] You received plenty of excellent advice; you're rejecting it because it isn't what you want to hear. Basically, with few exceptions, UPS & the IBT have agreed to prohibit transfers outside one's building and/or local. HOWEVER, UPS is willing to make exceptions for educational transfers at its discretion. This is NOT a guaranteed benefit -- they are heavily scrutinized and come with tight restrictions. If they weren't, you'd have tons of high seniority (re: more expensive) PT employees moving from the Northeast and Midwest to Florida, Arizona, etc. through bogus education transfers. While your intentions may have been good, I agree that UPS most likely believes that you gamed the system. You were granted a transfer, then changed your mind after completing the transfer. Your justification -- the increased cost of living in CT and your preference to take certain classes now, without impacting your major or graduation date -- is inadequate. When you made the transfer, you accepted the risks. You don't have a legitimate reason to undo the transfer -- again, it's NOT a guaranteed benefit -- and UPS wants to maintain the integrity of the educational transfer provisions. Good for them. The good news is that if you return to work in CT, UPS will likely relent. But it'll take time. [/QUOTE]
