Hi Storm_Cloud,
Pay no mind to the few snarky jackasses here. They don't know your whole story. (I) guessed you were much older, maybe a father. Just smart asses, with the emphasis on "asses." No hate toward them though.
Possibly Bastiatian gave you the best advice: Don't use UPS as a reference. BUT, if you want to, as "work experience," maybe a "white lie," such as "I had a serious transportation problem" that (think of good reason) you supposedly don't have now will show some experience at least.
I don't like lying overall, but sometimes in this real world a so-called white lie can move something forward without you being a truly bad person. My personal, subjective thoughts.
Good luck young man.

Leaving UPS off of his application will show a considerable gap in his work history which he will be asked to explain to potential employers. Put UPS on the app with the start and end dates and put a generic reason for leaving.
