[QUOTE="Brown813, post: 5229571, member: 98857"] Hey guys. I have recently decided to make a switch over to UPS from FedEx Ground. For reason I’m sure you could already figure out. However I have my own personal goal of eventually becoming a full-time driver, much like 99% of everyone else. I am trying to figure out which warehouse would give me the best opportunity to eventually reach that goal. I have read/heard that smaller warehouses are much more difficult to advance in, due to the smaller size of the fleet, let alone the number of preloaders looking to reach that same goal, with a limited number of trucks. Is anyone else here from Tampa? If so, would you mind providing some insight as to which warehouse may give me the best opportunity? I have currently been applying for the Bayside hub, but I stopped by the main hub in Tampa off of Acline Dr. East, and it appears that it is a much, MUCH larger operation. I spoke to a UPS driver out on my FXG route the other week who said I should just stay at Bayside, but I had another tell me to go to Acline. Even if you’re not from Tampa, but have any valuable insight on any of the above, your responses are still very much welcome on this thread. I posted a poll along with the thread for a visual representation of the conversation within the thread. Thanks all! [/QUOTE]
