[QUOTE="catman207, post: 5447023, member: 102716"] Hey everyone, appreciate this being a spot where you can ask questions. Got a few: I started this past summer as preload. Got in as TCD for peak, I'm wondering if because I already made senority for PT if that means that once peak is over I'll still be FT driving. I know it's a "most the time" for off the street hires staying on granted you do acceptable work. There's centers within a reasonable driving distance I can work at that I know need drivers bad, so it seems likely, just curious if my seniority really gets me a leg up vs off the street hires. (For reference for this and next question I'm in New England) Second is, let's imagine that I do get FT after peak. Would that be as a cover driver, 22.4, or whichever they have available (as in, center A has 22.4, center B has FT cover driver as a position)? Unsure if 22.4 is something you necessarily have to pursue on its own, or if it is the "natural progression" of getting to RPCD as of now. If it's 22.4 is it *that* bad of a job, if it's whats available to me? Looking over the contract it seems it's $20.50 at start, unsure of what a non RPCD FT driver pay is, or if it's just 22.4s now, or if a non 22.4 FT driver is rare enough where I might as well forget about it. Fortunately there's a few centers that are within driving distance, with another opening up next year that will clear up some space for an RPCD slot, fingers crossed. Is the yearly pay progression based on your start date, or date you began as a FT employee? Like if my 1st day at ups was 6/01 but 1st FT day was 12/01 which would be the date where the pay increase begins? Thanks a bunch, I'm here to make this a career so I want to make smart moves and be as proactive as I can in getting all my ducks in a row. [/QUOTE]
