Before you start in on me: meant to write friend/T driver position on subject, not sure why I blanked out and wrote cover.
Hey again all. So I have only been a local sort goon for all of 1.5 months at this point. Haven't signed any bid sheets yet because my buddy, a longtime driver said I need to...
I'm a new hire package handler at the CACH facility near the Chicagoland. Was told they had an PT mechanic opening. Is it really worth it and what are chances of going full time? I'm assuming they are IAM Local 701. Have 8 years experience and was previous 701 member.

I just read briefly over the proposed contract. It appears that the union has decided to push even harder to create full time jobs. I can understand this to an extent.
There are union employees that do not want to work full time. In fact this had been a great resource for people who are...
A new hub was built in Plainfield, IN (900,00 sq.ft.). It is not quite fully operational yet. However, a lot of the work has now been sent to the Plainfield hub from the main hub where I work. We are now getting 3 to 3-1/2 hours per shift instead of our usual four for the full timers. This...
So, I got my driver's application from UPS, and they want the requisite driving violations history.
Several decades back I had a DUI. Does this totally preclude me from consideration?
Second question, they want to know the date of offense and conviction, and I don't know. I caĺed the court and...
I am in Central States. When we get the guaranteed 8 and they short us -do you still have to remind them to pay you properly? Our hub is known for notorious short pays by certain sups. It's a constant battle.
Also when we have been slow (due to no volume) (weather related) they ask us...
Every route had 260+ stops with commercials. 2 of our drivers had 8hr days. 5 call ins. Personally can’t wait to see how many missed we can bring back lol
I'm curious though what are the shifts over there, and what days do they work. Please help me, I can not find no info online, and I was offered this last night all of a sudden by my manager. I'm a PT supervisor.
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...
I am currently a part time preloader and air driver. They periodically pull me off the sort to deliver EAMs with hardly any notice and I work Monday - Saturday.
I do not wish to continue air driving, but I still want to work the preload Monday - Friday. Is it possible for me to quit air driving...
Via UPSers my original vacation earn date was 2/12/18 for local sort. Now that I’ve been driving(as of 8/25), the earn date has changed to the driving start date of 8/25/2018 with a new option week for 2/12/18(hmm). I hope I’m explaining that correctly. Is this what should have happened?
Also...
My ex is a PT Hub Supervisor in West Columbia, SC. He got the job because I took the test for him. I reported it, but apparently they are just taking his word, instead of testing him again. Any idea where I might report this? I know how much you loaders hate the PT Sups anyway....
I feel kinda bad for (some of) the people who were led to believe that if they showed up everyday and worked really hard there would likely be a permanent position waiting for them at the end of peak season. In my building anyway, that is simply not gonna be the case. There are 4 or 5 full time...
Hi, been lurking here for awhile. Lots of useful information and good laughs. Been a package handler for 3 years now. Im in Local 63 and management is giving the mandatory Saturday demand. I am a M-friend employee. Steward has not been present latley and I was wondering if they can require Saturdays...
I just started with ups I was told i was hired for fulltime part-time sunrise but all I keep hiring now is that they don't know who there keeping after peak but I was told when I got job it was not seasonal is this normal I am just lost at where I stand now..... do seasonal people get union...
