[QUOTE="working up a sweat, post: 882722, member: 37075"] I was rehired in 2009 for peak, originally worked PT for UPS from 1997-2001. I had to quit because I was laid off from my FT job and immediately was offered a new FT job working 7 PM to 7 AM. I could not continue working for UPS because all 3 of their shifts conflicted with my FT schedule. I talked to management and told them I have to quit and would like to comeback some day and leaving on good terms. The reason being that I like working for UPS and would like to get enough service to qualify for the Teamsters pension. I was also on the safety committee and the employee retention committee. I worked hard with a positive attitude and showed up every night on time. Took about 6 sick days in 4 years. In 2009 when I applied online to UPS, I checked off that I used to work there. Went to interview and told HR person that I was a former employee and had to leave on good terms. I dropped names of former sups and words like "familiar with the UPS work ethic." They re-hired me. The HR person later told me she got 1,200 applications and had 37 openings for peak. I was rehired on 10-02-09 and knew the score that this was a try out. If you show every night on time, work hard with a good attitude, you have a good chance of being retained after peak. After peak they retained me (only 5 of the 37 peak new hires were kept). Don't forget to keep your Teamsters withdrawal card and present it when you apply again. You will save the 450.00 initiation fee that you paid when you first worked there. [/QUOTE]
