Do it. Any one can be a driver this days. Just ask for help. No special skills required

Is that why you went into management?

Californians.......LOLLLLLLL

The hate is strong with you.

Last night, my daughter called to say that her and her boyfriend were looking at jobs at a UPS hub in another state. They both have pretty great jobs now and I told them both that UPS would be a disappointment to them.

I've gotten many friends NOT to apply at Ups. The company has become a train wreck and I wouldn't recommend working here to anybody. I tell anyone interested not to bother.

I start September 9. was told Id be eligible for reimbursement.

Get it in writing---get EVERYTHING in writing. Lying runs rampant at UPS.

I would never talk anyone out of wanting to join UPS. They all think all you do is drive around all day. Let them find out for themselves. That'll learn em.

Haha I agree. Thanks..

I have a brother in law who I despise. He is a real POS. He asked me about possibly coming to work at UPS since he was out of a job. Again. I encouraged him to apply as fast as he could.

You should have gotten him a job...

Hey folks. Anyone here start at UPS later in life and move into mgmt or driver career? Im 38 and have a degree but I just cant stand 8 to 5 in an office anymore. So im doing an MBA and working at UPS PT starting September.
i worked at fedex for a year ,so Im aware of the physicality of the job. im very active so that is actually a plus for me.
Anyone here have a late start like this?
Thanks for any advice!

In Feeders he could retire at 65 with no problem.

 

[The Driver]

Haha. Fair enough. Thanks for the reply..

I would strongly advise you to get creative and use your degree for another path in life. Unless you can go pretty much straight into driving a package car.

Do you have a family that relies on you? If you're single just do whatever you want.

Yeah, I wouldn't want his crap to come back on me when he screwed up. I'd rather not want anyone to know we're related.

But you could have really ruined his life

You missed a golden opportunity

He's done a good job on that all by himself. I avoid him like the plague. Seeing him once a year at Christmas is too damn many in my book.

[What'dyabringmetoday???]

38 is the new 25 .

I hope everyone else appreciates your knowledge as much as I do. Thank you for helping out. Lol.

 

[What'dyabringmetoday???]

Started at 36 as a package driver. Feeders at 43. I’ll have no problem making it to retirement at 61

Feeder drivers are the backbone of UPS. Congratulations on being part of an elite club....lol.
