I have family down there that decided to ride it out despite my pleading to come stay with us. The eye of the storm is about to pass right over them.

Hopefully they're all safe and sound. I think this storm caught a lot of people off guard like Katrina.

Good evening Brothers/Sisters,

Thanks in advance for your time and attention. You could be anywhere in the world but you are here so thanks.

I am a 2 year California (northern) package car driver. A few months ago, I tried to submit a transfer out to Houston, but I was ultimately told I could not transfer outside of the region. I brushed it off and resumed regular work/life. At the time there were no open positions available for Houston or Willowbrook (outskirt).

About an hour ago, I checked open positions for the hell of it, and sure enough they are hiring drivers for both Houston and Willowbrook. I quickly logged in and went to apply, but I was greeted with a prompt informing me that I would have to apply through UPSers "my life and career" section.

I looked high and low, but was only able to find management positions posted on the upsers website.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Are there any tips you can provide to help me get to the application/interview process? I have no problem with flying to Texas for an Interview, etc but I have to submit the application first.

Please let me know, California is for the birds and we are ready to leave asap.

Thank you

I tried this. I am also in nor-cal. My BA told me nor-cal can only transfer to another nor-cal hub. Only other option is to quit and re-apply. I couldn't even transfer to San Diego from San Francisco. We're ed here in Nor-Cal as far as transferring goes

Does that include the south bay?

Nor-Cal region is considered as far south Fresno and north as Shasta

Damn, that's friend* up.

Well at least you can transfer to some less expensive areas even on the coast.

Yeah it's so ed up. It's even worse cause if you're in CA and work outside of nor-cal, you're allowed to transfer anywhere easy peasy. Keep pay but not seniority. But don't have to quit and reapply. My BA said it is cause our union is so strong in Nor-Cal. UPS demanded this. Quid Quo Pro
