So you want an IT gig? Here's one method to get you there: Kick ass in whatever position you're in (que the "bend-over" jokes on this thread). Stand out as being the dude that makes
happen, is dependable, and consistent. Be cool with as much management as possible. Get the word out to the grapevine that you have IT experience and want to pursue a position in that field. After 6 months of being an hourly, look into MAPP and get promoted into management. Learn who your TSG (Tech Support Group) folks are and make friends with them. Those positions tend to not turn over very quickly though, so be patient. It might take a few years to achieve the exact position you want. UPS is a good company though. It's worth waiting and learning along the journey.
