[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 371851, member: 4653"] Whoa, wait a second. UPS will not descriminate based on age. At least they are not supposed to. You will need to start part-time or as a "Temp Driver". Starting PT can get you a drving job in 1-8 years depending on your location. Still, you could get a 22.3 job (named after the article in our contract which created the jobs), in 6 months to 2 years. I got mine in 5 months and was driving full-time in under 12 months. These are full-time jobs consisting of 2 part-time jobs. This would be your best chance to get on the road ASAP. Heck, you might be happy with just a 22.3 job. I think this would be better than the post-office because you will have more options in the future and I think the pay is better than the USPS. When bid-time arrives you can move to a more desirable 22.3, stay where you are, or maybe bid on full-time driving route. Also, the 22.3's can be better on your body. They usually consist of a shift of difficult labor (loading, unloading, sorting in the hub) and a shift of easier labor (air-driving, small-sort, drving bulk trains, clerical). I think you should give UPS a shot. [/QUOTE]
