[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 1349259, member: 4886"] 1. HR is always a good place to go to. On Upsers.com, there are sections for benefits. I am unsure offhand how long it takes (if any) for benefit coverage to start. Also, you can ask your FT supv or sort manager this question. 2. Cost of benefits. That all depends on what option you select and if it's just for yourself, or if you are covering anyone else (spouse, kids, Spouse + kids). Also it depends on what benefit level you choose. There are two options, one is a low cost option that basically is a high deductible plan, but it does give you an annual physical included). This is a good option if you are healthy and don't have any ongoing health issues. There is another plan that costs more per month but the deductible and out of pocket max is much lower. I suggest asking a fellow PT supv that is in same situation (ie kids\no kids etc and what they pay per month). Note: with the high deductible plan, you can select to have money go into a HSA, which allows you to put before tax dollars in to pay for various medical bills. THat money stays with you even if you later leave UPS. 3. I'll never say never, but going straight to feeders is as close as you get to never. Going to pkg car driver can be done. However, with the union contract there is a rule of a ratio of inside to outside hires. I don't know what it is offhand (5-1 or 6-1) but you as mgmt is considered an outside hire. Usually they only do that if they want to promote you to a FT supv and have you go out and be a driver for a while to learn the ropes. However, once you go driver (even with intention of going to FT supv) you can always change your mind and stay a driver. 4. Unsure offhand for a new supv. There are various components, how much you currently make, what the mid point is for your job. (ie are you below or above the midpoint). Also your performance factors in. Usually you can plan 2-3% for a normal raise. However being new, you may get higher raises to bring you closer to mid point earlier. [/QUOTE]
