[QUOTE="j13501, post: 333885, member: 918"] I don't think you understand that many of us that make decisions on promotions, were part time supervisors ourselves, a long time ago. I've always believed that UPS was a smart company based on the part time supervisor job classification. Where else can you observe a young man or woman under actual, stressful operational conditions, to see how they handle difficult supervisory situations. Then you have the ability to promote those people that have excelled, making your management team stronger. That being said, where you are in the country does matter. I've seen p/t supervisors in "slow growth" areas of the country wait six or seven years for a job, because no one in their center turned over. I've also seen us promote less experienced p/t supervisors in "high growth" centers because management turnover had made the full time supervisor job look "undesirable". In the end, no matter where you are, if a husband and wife don't support each other, then you'll be unhappy. This can be a challenging job for both drivers and supervisors - it takes a supportive family to get through the long hours and stay positive, so the family benefits from all UPS has to offer.
