Hey I am a 22 year old with a BA in economics. I've been working for UPS for 4 months. One week as an unloader and I've been working as a part time supervisor ever since.
I was wondering if anyone could give me pointers to becoming a full timer anytime soon. Would staying in Operations be my...
My wife landed her dream job in Connecticut, we're in New York. Its a really good job that works very well for us and we decided to move to out of state. The commute to my hub is about an hour and some w/o traffic, thats if I leave really early in the morning to catch the 9:05am PCM.

So I’m coming up on my first year of driving in March, but I started training in the end of January so that is my building seniority date on the sheet.
(I had to wait for a route to open up)
Do I get my first raise on my building seniority date or my first week driving?
What are the seniority rules when one union local joins another? Ive heard dovetail for seniority, but both locals have a different progresion time for becoming full time. Example one local has a 10+ years to become full time and the other is a few years less. Anyone has info on this?
I am a combo employee who has a bid of 2-inside jobs, Can I sign-up to be a shuttler for a different sort/building? The shuttler work and the regular combo work I bid on are at the same time, So its not extra work. Its just due to getting ground pay over combo pay rate? Or is this strictly for...
Hired off the street june of 2017 a week ago manager told me HR screwed up and hired too many people. Now this morning he calls me and tell me they no longer need me. Is this right? Can I fight it being that the only excuse is HR screwed up?

To start a career with UPS? I'd want to shoot for a driver position eventually and as I understand there is a long wait list.
I've been reading on here that a lot of times people don't make driver until their 30s 40s or even later.
So at 36, would I even have a chance?
I believe I'm...

I mean this sincerely to all my good union brothers and sisters, fulltime and partime: DON’T LOSE YOUR COOL because of the mess UPS mismanagement has put us in.
As a feeder driver, I bumble around from hub to hub supporting various preloads in my district. I’ve seen a lot of anxiety, stress...
Have had mine now two weeks. Absolutely terrible experience so far. Any other BC folks on here got em yet? What ya think? I'm ready for my old truck back
I am a helper and have been a helper on 3 separate peaks.
I have never missed a shift and I love the job, if there was a full-time helper position I'd be in there like swimwear.
My HUB is saying the week before Christmas will be a 7 day work week and drivers will make triple pay on Christmas...
I’m still in my qualifying period. I’ve got the diad down, the stop car routine and all that down pretty well. My area and route knowledge is not too bad. The only thing bothering me is my damn knees. I always thought that when i got this opportunity, that i would run with it for 25 years and 4...
I was hired as a seasonal driver last Christmas with the hopes of getting on full time. Of course it didn’t happen and was let go in January. Next I got hired as seasonal over the summer and work from April till September and was let go again. Now I just started back a month ago for Christmas...
Forced six days. The union has failed us.
We still, as individuals, control the work.
Walk, don’t run. Hand trucks are for pushing, not pulling. If you need a strap to keep your packages in place, you are overloaded. Hell, you shouldn’t be using a strap to begin with. Utilize crosswalks and...

Hi guys. I’m fairly new to this forum and UPS in general. I’ve just been completing training for package car driving and have worked at UPS for a total of about 6 months.
So recently (Wed. 11/22) I got in a minor accident in which a gutter that was sticking out at a little coffee shop got...
