[QUOTE="Furen, post: 3234487, member: 69312"] Okay so a couple of days ago, I went in for an tour/orientation with ups. During the orientation, dude told us that they had lost like 30 workers the previous week and needed bodies that could work the long hours to help with the packages. At this point like 20 people walked away from the tour en masse (lol'd). So I let em know that I'm available to work the long hours they need and proceed to the HR section. Interview was just a few yes or no questions and an inquiry on my preferred shift. I told them any and HR said that the day was full and they would need to call with confirmation/status or something to that affect on the twilight. So when they say this, I'm thinking back to dude giving us a speech during the tour like no more than 10 min ago about how they're lacking serious manpower because people keep walking out at the facility and wondering how them being full could be possible. I mean if that's the case, why not let us know from the beginning that it's a very small number of shifts available right now and have us just fill out the form with our contact info and preferred shift instead of making us wait in the cold only to tell us nothing is available right now. I mean that makes no kind of sense. I think somebody there wasn't being straight, and my gut feeling tells me it was HR. Tho I guess it also could've been the other dude trying to scare people into taking more hours, but he seemed pretty genuine compared to the non interested attitude of HR. Anyways, I'm wondering if this sort of thing is the norm and I should wait for their call or move on. And it's been 4 days already and nobody has called or left a message or updated my web portal.
