I know a guy who got dqed from package and then went into feeders, he turned out ok. Package will dq you if don't look like a hustler, feeders don't care about that and if they do it's for the opposite reason.
Although our bid sheet has that requirement in it I think that's if they are bringing up p/c drivers as Jacksonville is putting drivers on that have never drove package. So not sure if it's really that important.You need to do a year of safe driving in package before feeders will even think to look your way. One more time, if you couldn't cut it driving a package car, you won't have a chance in feeders at all.
You mean that you don’t get an automatic blowjob for punching in? Say it ain’t so!Well it depends on where you’re at. If you’re at a small place than it really is a nice, easy job. If your at CACH, Indy, Worldport, etc. than it’s a different story.
Your talking dozens and dozens of different jobs with a variety of start times. They can’t train you on everything so you have to figure a lot out on your own and dispatch probably won’t even know who the hell you are half the time. Two years to get off being on call and ten years to get a day bid. It isn’t all what it’s cracked up to be.

It's nice working at an outlying center, we all have our own tractors that are parked right where we left them, no dispatch on site or any feeder management period, I haven't even talked to my "boss" in months. Very relaxed and low key we just punch in, grab our keys and start work. Downside is we don't have as many choices as far as schedules go, but I can live with that.
Kind of explained that in the OP. Reading comprehension might help.So, how come you flunked out of pkg.
Was it because the supe was a jerk and was mean to you?

ExactlyAssuming your plan would work, why pay for truck driving school when UPS will school you for free?

I drove the vehicle fine. The delivering part sucked, but didn’t really get a fair shake. Not really interested in defending myself on that as I don’t care if you believe it or not. I’d just like to get people’s opinions on getting a CDL before UPS feeder school. Thanks.

I heard some ppl say thwy might be willing to prefer you over non cdl feeder candidates too.
Nope.
It goes by seniority.
