[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 787524, member: 12570"] You may be putting the cart before the horse. First you need to get hired after Peak. Yes, showing up on time and busting your ass will help, but there has to be an opening in order for them to hire you. Once hired you will wait 1 year for medical benefits for you (18 months for your family) while making about $10/hr. A FT driver seniority driver who has gone through wage progression (3 years) is just over $30/hr plus benefits. I have a BS in Business and was hired off the street as a driver in 1989. I am making more than I would in my degree field with superior benefits. If it were me I would work PT here, PT elsewhere and continue to look for work in IT. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
