Educational transfers need to be approved. For the most part unless your already full time. Your going to have to quit and get rehired.

Don't tell anyone about Bellingham, we are trying to keep it the way it is. Keep up the stories of rain and hippies.

Lol, i guess you mean me?.. Not going to be working at amazon. I did farm labor and gardening before trying UPS.
Trying to make more money as a driver. But now I am considering that the happiness I had doing that was more valuable.
As long as I can make a survivable income, I'll probably go back to that.

No I was telling whatever that guys name is to relax. There is not a mass amount of people moving to bellingham. Most people out side of Washington dont even know about that place.

It's UPS, so nay good, but the union makes it easier to deal with Managements self inflicted wounds.

No hub is well managed. I've been to 4 different hubs through my career. They cut staffing to the bone and peak is a total surprise every year.

Good to know, thank you for the info.. I came to phoenix because I have family here, and decided to try starting a career at ups.
So far I find it very depressing. I know that I can't stay in phoenix because I miss small town pacific northwest living so much already.
I'm trying to decide if I can hold on for a year so I can re apply at another hub or just move on to a different job.

Is it true that I couldn't get rehired at any hub if I don't last a year ?

You only need to be a full time driver past your 30 days to go on the transfer list.

That’s the rumor, but people keep moving up there. You obviously have never been there.Bellingham is a terrible rainyhole. It's ok if you are 18 or 19 and drunk in college, knee deep in poon but other than that it's a
Not true. As long as you have a good rehire code you can quit and apply at the new place. I'd advise contacting the place you want to work before quitting your current job. Olympia area is a nice place to live, but they have an old building and are growing out of it fast. Joint Base Lewis McCord, which is just north, has just about tripled in size the last 15 years or so. That is the source of a lot of the growth in the area. If you like small and rural, you might try Arlington. Not that far from Bellingham, but a little smaller.

Oh yeah from the scenic Lummi trailer parks all the way to Ryan Stiles house, Bellingham is a dumpster fire.
