[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1318905, member: 17969"] Just know that the first day of being a part time supervisor is the first day of the last days of your UPS career. Part time supervisors get "pinned" with all the blame when the company fails to perform. Remember, right now, as a union worker, you are only responsible for yourself, but as a supervisor, everyones failures are your failures. All the err's will fall onto your shoulders and you better be able to handle the heat. The company will eat you alive as they pin every failure onto you until you quit. Besides the title, what value do you think being a part time supervisor will add to your resume? A part time sup's value carries about the same weight as a manager at a subway sandwich shop. You will have no control to make decisions. You will do as you are told. You will comply when the company reduces the tools at your disposal to do your job. Then you will suffer the consequences when things dont work out. Its the same story at every hub across this country. The turnover of part time supervisors is staggering. Like used rags, you can see piles of them at the end of the year. I wouldnt do it unless you are connected by having family in the upper ranks of the company. If you decide to take the spot, then i say thanks for working for UPS in advance. TOS. [/QUOTE]
