[QUOTE="Guy Montag, post: 950351, member: 40458"] That's thing though, they were all about me going for the PT Sup. Which leads me to think there weren't as many issues with my loading as presented. I'm not an idiot and I know how to follow direction. I couldn't tell you what the mistakes were that I was making. Less then a week after they pulled me off of loading, they threw me, out of all the people there, back to loading to fill in for someone. I though maybe they want me to go for the PT Sup so then they can fire me without the Union involvement. But that seems like a stretch, I get along great with my co-workers, supervisors and Managers, so I doubt they'd be that manipulative, but once again, I'm new to UPS so I don't really know. I can see dealing with crap from both sides will be annoying. But I'm getting close to 30 and would like to provide something more for my son and any future kids than I'm providing now. If dealing with crap from people gets me more money to provide more for my family, I'll talk it, after all it's just a job, right? And [URL="http://www.browncafe.com/forum/members/gorilla75jdw/"][B]gorilla75jdw[/B][/URL], We send close to 50 trucks a day. Since I've started working Sort, I heard the numbers 3,500-4,000 get thrown around, not sure if that's units per shift or what (once again, I've only been there a few weeks, learning more everyday). I heard someone say it's a 5-6 year wait for a driver position to open. A lot of the drivers look young, and I'm the 2nd to last on the seniority list. PT Sup should theoretically be a fast track alternative, but like [URL="http://www.browncafe.com/forum/members/nystripe96/"][B]nystripe96[/B][/URL] said, 9 years with no mobility is not something I want to find myself stuck in.
