Hi UPSers,
I am considering joining deliver service ad currently looking at USPS or UPS. Already interviewed with USPS for a Rural Carrier Associate position and got referred in the end. However, what he told me about my life in USPS is filled with uncertainties, at least in the begining:
no insurance, non-career, guaranteed only 2-4 hours per week, required to on-call / standing by for duty, and not sure for how long the period will be.
I asked whether I can get more hours if I can finish assigned duty earlier, in response, he said he is hiring 6 RCAs and he prefer to let every RCA has average hours.
I wonder if in UPS the situation for new hires would be better? I don't mind to work hard or harder, at least my income would be more secured compared with $30- $60/week.
Any related work life for UPS delivery driver job would be helpful, thanks.
