[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 350719, member: 12570"] You have to decide what it is that you want from UPS, whether it is going to be your career or whether you are using this job for the benefits and the tuition reimbursement while (if) you are going to school. If it is going to be your career, you then need to decide if you want to play for the good guys or the bad guys. JK. You need to decide if you want to pursue a career in mgt or in you want to remain an hourly with hopes of one day being able to race the truck. Your choice of career path is something that only you can decide and should be based upon all of those factors in your life (family, goals, personal life) that you hold important. As you stated above, there is currently a hiring freeze for management and, based upon current economics, it may very well be in place for quite some time, so that may play a part in your decision process. If you are just using UPS for the benefits and TR, there is nothing wrong with that. Stay in school and enjoy the spending money and free fitness program that we offer. My career at UPS began with a chance phone call to a friend of mine that I had been stationed with here in Plattsburgh. 19 years later I am still here and hoping that the last 11 go by just as quickly. 2 kids through college, solid retirement and strong compensation and benefit package.
