Is the free period 11/15 - 1/15 where seniority is frozen and cannot be gained?
Listen bud , you’ll never work at UPS by starting in feeders. Start inside the hub and get some seniority.Is the free period 11/15 - 1/15 where seniority is frozen and cannot be gained?
He or she will be a seasonal
Here in the southern it's 10/15-1/15Is the free period 11/15 - 1/15 where seniority is frozen and cannot be gained?
Depends if you are hired as a seasonal or permanent hire.Is the free period 11/15 - 1/15 where seniority is frozen and cannot be gained?

But not in this thread.The OP stated in his other thread that he is seasonal.
At this point , you might be disillusioned but make the best of the situation. Depending on where you are and how many people are retiring , they might keep you or bring you back to hire you permanently . And they might not. But if you get into accidents or become undependable or develop an attitude and then they have an opening , it won’t be you that is considered for the position.Is the free period 11/15 - 1/15 where seniority is frozen and cannot be gained?
I don't expect a permanent position until one opens up. I plan on playing the long game and just remain on call for as long as need be until my PT seniority begins, and grind that out, then go for FT. There's 10-12 people that have seniority dates from the 70s and the 80s. Also, it seems a lot of guys have retired already, and just want 2-3 days a week to supplement their social security. Meaning they want to stay on call. I'm 25, haven't even started my career yet, I have plenty of time on my hands and practically no bills. I've answered my phone every time they've called thus far, and they call me when I'm already doing a job seeing if I want more, and I always say yes.At this point , you might be disillusioned but make the best of the situation.

Yeah- most people believe that someone can't gain seniority during the "free period"...Depends if you are hired as a seasonal or permanent hire.
Yeah that's what I was told when logging my 30 days worked that during the free period it doesn't count so just for piece of mind I wanted to know the specific dates so I don't have to log it. Makes sense since I'll have a set job for that time frame 6 days a week.Yeah- most people believe that someone can't gain seniority during the "free period"...
If they start before the free period begins yes. Or the center manager is allowed to qualify people they like during the free period even if that is when they started. Don't forget your kneepads.Yeah- most people believe that someone can't gain seniority during the "free period"...
I was told I can gain seniority until 11/15.If they start before the free period begins yes. Or the center manager is allowed to qualify people they like during the free period even if that is when they started. Don't forget your kneepads.

Wrong.If they start before the free period begins yes. Or the center manager is allowed to qualify people they like during the free period even if that is when they started. Don't forget your kneepads.
I know at least four Gods in that case.If you are a God, you can have a seniority date that is within the "free period."
