Tips for starting out as a driver

[ManInBrown]

Thread #942,565 I’m an off the street hire, any tips on how i can get hired permanent. When I was 15 i drove an ice cream truck for two summers so I have experience driving. Will that give me a leg up?

I have a few felony convictions. No theft, sex, violence, or drugs, but still very much the opposite of "pretty good."

Maybe I don’t get out enough..but aren’t those like all of the things you could possibly have a felony conviction for?

You are anonymous here, what did you do?

Sorry, my bad. Next question will go there.



What does that mean? I'm new!



Seasonal, as far as I know. They said it's increasingly likely they will be offering a lot of FT positions in January, but I'm not counting on it.

How many is a few

So drunk driving, financial crimes, property crimes, or war crimes. NICE!!!
Forget driving for a career, you might be too much of a wildcard for that. Stick around though because there will be plenty of management opportunities where your previous "skillsets" might come in handy. And no, I'm not kidding.

Welcome to Brown Cafe anyways! Hang around for a bit, I think you will like it here.

I forgot organized crime, but then again those crimes usually involve crimes against persons AND financial crimes so...scratch that.

Drive slow. Also walk slow.

He wants a semblance of work life balance.

He needs to set a slow precedent early. That way he can slowly get slower, till he is doing barely any stops everyday. This is the best long term strategy.

Did you record and rebroadcast an NFL game without the expressed written permission of the NFL?!?

Or maybe took one of those tags off of a mattress that you aren’t supposed to remove?

Only two summers? Sounds like you're more qualified for FedEx. Three summers or above and you've got a deal.

I should've been more clear that although I'm trying to drive right now, I don't know of all the positions within UPS, and I want to see if maybe there's other good, maybe even better paths for me, especially if I don't qualify.

Vandalism. A few drunkenly broken windows over $1k = a few felonies.

Awww man...criminal damage, you really let us down. I was hoping for a good Ponzi scheme or embezzlement case or even a torch job. The guys who topple soda machines have a more checkered past than you do and they cause more heartache than a few broken windows.

Forget what I said. You will be better off as a driver. You will probably be an awesome driver. You just don't have the criminality to go into management. Again, good luck and stick around.

He may be a criminal but not sure he would go so far as to instruct drivers to sheet damaged pkgs as future.
