[QUOTE="HomeDelivery, post: 877404, member: 33696"] good for you, now keep on applying to the Brown Corp! update this thread when you do cross over to the other side... you already know it's greener on the other side from reading posts on the ups section, they're starting to be over-dispatched, but the good side is they're getting OT pay for it as well... does Express also give you OT when over-dispatched? But, at least they're still being compensated (seems more-than-fair day's pay though) I'm currently looking for other jobs while at pseudo-FedEx; I also did apply for Express, because you guys were hourly (less paid than UPS, but still hourly > flat rate salary or per-stop salary for me). After reading a few threads about Express on here & other sites, I'm not going to follow through on this endeavor... I'm putting my family 1st & will look for a job elsewhere. Sure, I'm glad I have the flexibility of HD, since my state is also "at-will" I can come/go as I please & vice versa... If they won't hire me again for this Peak Season, it's their loss trying to find other "qualified drivers" to drive those simple cargo vans/ box trucks... I can only work weekends now anyways I recall about a handful of temps being sent home last year because they were in an accident, caused property damage, etc... these temp guys are getting paid [B]by the hour[/B] to perform their duties "by the book" If I was a manager, i'll stress safety 1st for these guys, ie. G.O.A.L. and other things weekly during the peak season (if you're under a subcontractor, you'll know how to do "shortcuts" since it's flat rate or by the stop) [/QUOTE]
