[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 3557954, member: 14596"] I cannot remember an off-cycle adjustment in salary other than a promotion, ever. That is not to say it never happens, just that I certainly never got one, and no one I worked with did either (or they did not talk about it). UPS has a very conservative culture, there is a lot of inertia in that culture against one off, out of the normal procedure situations like an out of cycle raise. That said, in order to get one, your manager would have to champion it, your division manager would likely need to sign off on it, and HR at some level would need to agree. It would start with your manager. Talk with him or her. As to your situation, some notes. I have seen many part time supervisors in similar situations, being given responsibility above their pay grade. I have seen some do this for years. However, when full time supervisor spots did become available, it was these part timers who regularly stepped up (and some would say were being taken advantage of) who's names were the only names brought up when possible promotions were discussed. Your manager is the first gateway to either an out of cycle raise or a potential promotion. Foster a positive working relationship with them. Note, you will see many posts from the hourly on the forum claiming you have to kiss ass. Nothing is farther from the truth. Most management at UPS that I dealt with had zero respect for a total kiss ass. There are just many, many posters on this board that really do not understand the difference between building a positive, mutually respectful relationship and kissing someone's ass. Ignore those posters, they are either just having a lark or trying to compensate for some serious failings in their own interpersonal relationships. [/QUOTE]
