[QUOTE="NickD, post: 4602306, member: 82388"] Hi everyone, I’m seeking some guidance and hopefully reassurance that I haven’t been duped. I’m about a month into my career with UPS. I’m coming from USPS and before that, FedEx. I was hired as a full time, permanent driver, based on my experience in the delivery service. My concern is this: I’m now hearing that a bunch of drivers are just “stand in” guys or extras and have to ask senior drivers if they want the day off so they can work. Some of these guys have been waiting around for over five years to get their own route! Is this typical? I’m married with five kids, I can’t afford to work part time, especially when I left USPS to join UPS. I’m not sure what to do. I’m afraid that I’ve been told I’m full time permanent just to get me in the door for peak season and then after peak, I won’t be able to get hours. Is this typical? What do I do? Who do I talk to? Thanks in advance, everyone. [/QUOTE]
