new hire pay question

[achievementunlocked]

So I was hired as a package handler at the rate of 17/hr. I just finished up my first week which was training. I signed into upsers and noticed on my time card I was being paid at a rate of 14/hr. Should I tell someone at my hub, or was I just being payed less for training?

What it might be is you're hourly rate is $14 but with the bonus you come out to be $17 a hour.

Ohh they never told us about a bonus

I'd say you were pretty lucky then if that's the case. Talk to your preload supervisor about this. Let him know that they are paying you more than him to start and see if he can find out for you.

Been here 6 years and that's more than I make. $14 is what I've heard. You've been lied to.
