Is it uncommon or is this guy pulling my leg? I've been doing a driver helper for about 2 weeks now. I come to work everyday and bust my butt for my driver, and he certainly appeciates that. I try to pick up his lunch tab, and I'm always on time, never complain, etc.
Well he mentioned to me the other day if I wanted a position in the warehouse? I said I was going back to school in January, but I didn't have another job lined up after this seasonal helper was over with. So, I said sure why not! I asked him if they were hiring because I had read on this board that if anything UPS was letting people go.
He said that there basically "always" hiring, but right now Yes it's hard to get "in house" so to speak. He said I was the type of person UPS would be looking for, and that he would mention something. He keeps asking everyday I work if I'm interested, but I can't tell if he's messing with me or not. He sounds pretty sincere, and he keeps saying I have a strong work ethic.
My issue is I want to start looking for another job after this one is over, but I wouldn't mind staying on board if he really does try to get me in the warehouse. I wasn't sure if he was just telling me all that just to keep me working hard. Which, either way I'm gonna bust my butt for the guy
