[QUOTE="CtrlAltDel, post: 4585279, member: 80394"] My plan is to jump ship to UPS after three years of service with the Post Office. My three year mark is February 20, 2021. Then try to jump ship as a "off the street" hire out of state somewhere in the Western Part of the United States. I am hoping it's a Regular Full Time Package driver job or Combination 22.4 driver. Whatever is available when that time comes. Goal is to obviously get hired. Pass the 30-day probation. Then bring my family to the new location. Next year I should have 20 days of annual leave to use which will work great with the transition. That case scenario if UPS were awarded the routes, I'll definitely be on board. I already dealt with USPS management and know what to expect from the delivery side. I have worked overtime quite a bit during my first four years (two years as a non-career carrier). The last four months I have been on the 8 hour list as a result of covid19. While being home with my wife and kids have been great, my body is getting some rest. I still have to increase my income level. Right now the post office takes 12 years to max out to the top income level (which is only $61k base pay) I also would like to get out of Arizona too and go somewhere cooler / colder. What got me into the post office was a retired UPS driver. I had a conversation with him from my previous job and he told me a lot about the work and the benefits he received. He also told me that it could take a while to become a driver depending on your location. But I stumbled into the post office instead. When i heard that UPS hires off the street, this has become my Plan B in case the Post Office goes broke. I just hope the post office can last at least 10 more months. [/QUOTE]
