I worked part time for 3 months. Went full time and was up to full pay scale after 90 days.

This makes my 5 years preloading and 4 year progression suck even more!

Get qualified, get your contact, go to union meetings, than slow down and make sure you can have a carrier here. Save your body ,cover your ass , support the union, and look out for ypu and ypur family.

Seems to be a lot of uncertainty for new drivers on how long it takes to get your 30 days in.

The race to the bottom is nearly complete.

Three days in sheet writing school, 3 with sup, then sink or swim, you are on your own.

Absolutely!!
Don't miss a pick up
Don't hit anything
And don't stuff a bundle
Now get going !!
That's how we rolled !!

School? Part time? They needed Christmas drivers. I walk in the door. Send me to Philly building for a physical.
UPS used to have their own nurses and hired doctors back in the old days. That was on a Tues. Get a call Fri.
You passed. Show up Monday. Monday I'm in the package car with the center manager. He rides with me Tues. and
Wed. Thursday and Friday I'm on my own. Work the whole peak season. Then I worked the week between
Christmas and New Year. Center manager says, "You did good. Want a job." Yeah, sure. Never missed a day. They made my seniority date
the first day I started. Made top rate in 30 days.

Damn your old

Damn your old

Thank goodness I still look good. It's all I got left.

 

[Catatonic]

Good.
Maybe these will not feel so entitled and not be so naive about the job market.

 

[Catatonic]

Damn your old

It's 'you are' therefore 'you're'.

I was hired full time from off the street. I took my dot road test an got fitted now going take class for 5 seeing habits when will my 30day start ?

The first five days of your orientation training.

 

[Wassups]

I went through the 5 day class, did my first on the job training with a sup, and realize you drivers have a hard job to do. My respect to you. I'm from off the street. I've never taken anything for granted. I've been one of the hardest working people I know for the last 35 years of my adult work life. I don't think I was cut out to be a public servant. I'm going back to my industrial art trade work which I'm very good at. Like I said, much respect to ups drivers, it's not my calling.

 

[Hanz90]

This job sucks major c*ck
