Usually a building is a hub but might have several delivery centers.

Yes. My first day driving there were no jump seats and I had a supervisor training another supervisor. They were both standing

If you can't pass a road test, you can't drive. Plain and simple. It's not remotely difficult. You either know what you're doing or dont.

To be fair, most of us were allowed to at least drive around the parking lot before the road test to get a feel of how the truck handles.

If you had read all my comments that's pretty much what I said. I'm not a driver. Boom!

just because you failed a road test, doesn't mean you won't rock it in 6 months. Why haven't you done Saturday air? In the last 5 years they have forced a driver or borrowed at least one nearly every week.

Don't I have to pass the road test to do air? Idk if I will take it in 6 months. Right now I got physical therapy to worry about. May not have full movement in my hand like I used to.

The road test for Saturday air is normally done in house.

What do you think it means?
It means that one of the supervisors will administer the test rather than the DMV.

I wasn't going to leave UPS, I was keeping my options open. Criminology is an interest. But may become a career...like I said all depends on my hand and how it heals.

You need to find yourself a senior driver to take you under his/her wing.

Criminology is one of those majors where the courses are interesting but the degree means little in the real world.
