Any of those jobs are better than working PT for crappy wages in a Union that doesn't care about PT workers.
Tired of working at UPS.
He could always go driving and have a shot of making some real money. Can he do that at those other places??

I've been where you are, and I wish I could tell you it gets better, but, in my case, it honestly only got a very little bit better.
The reason my situation of being sent home first out of everyone (even before employees who were hired after me) improved is because I got into the Union, but it took many weeks till I got in because they called me in to work as little as possible in those early days.
Still don't know why (and I've been there a few years now) but the Supervisor just doesn't like me, and he always assigns me the tasks no one else wants to do, he doesn't make eye contact with me during the very few times he actually speaks to me, jokes around with others but not me, has an irritated look on his face if I ask him a question -- but happily answers others' questions, etc.
It hurts.
I'm not a slacker, I arrive early, am polite, and helpful, but he is so cold to me.
I avoid him, which isn't difficult -- because he doesn't come around me much.

Double dip if there is a Fedex Ground nearby. I know a few guys at my center that would work local sort at our building then a midnight shift at FXG. Long days but they said the money wasn't bad. Keep quiet about it. When your situation improves at UPS or your find better work elsewhere, you'll have options.At the end of the day UPS doesn't pay it employees anything worth giving a

Everyone else ( including p/t sups ) are just like cannon fodder on a battle field.

is a part time job supposed to pay a living wage?

No but you shouldn't be expected to work friend/T hours in a P/T position either.
And you most definitely shouldn't have to file grievances over O/T pay discrepancies every single week because the company is too slimy to want to acknowledge that they owe you an accurate pay compensation for the time you worked.

There’s nothing wrong with being an airline pilot for 24 years making over $100,000 for 19 of those, retire. Live on your pension and use UPS part-time job to keep an income, stay in shape, social life. We all have our story. Trust me UPS pilots make more than brown carriage drivers.
Pilot jobs are going to be very hard to come by right now especially with all the major airlines doing massive layoffs
We definitely need more carriage drivers than we do pilots right now
Sleeper drivers make more.

I stalk a lot of UPSers... they took me back, so yes they are desperate for drivers.
However, they are also flourishing as an airline; the only one at the moment. I saw on LinkedIn they just onboarded 20 new pilots. All of them were military, however. I had a pipe dream of becoming an airline captain, albeit too late since I was already a senior in high school with a 2.2 gpa. Regardless, I joined the Marine Corps with the slogan “one day I will become an officer/Aviator.”
There’s no way in hell anybody in this economy can accumulate all of the hours required to just apply for an airline pilot slot at any airline, without being in the military. We’re talking about 20,000 hours, each hour would be about $200 for a civilian going to flight school.

By the way, I can’t believe this is a thread? If you’re tired of working at UPS, that just means you work at UPS.
me too. glad i didnt try i wouldve been mistaken for a terrorist. actually railroading is too boring so im imagining being a pilot would be similar.
my dad wanted to be one too but he had bad eyes.
i flew a stunt plane in LA. cant remember if i flew that glider in arizona or not, but we did tricks there too. saw a sign just by coincidence.
