    To get somewhat back on point though, I do have a UPS question, what are the odds for someone who takes a as UPS describes it, a seasonal full time package car position, but it's at a small town and it is what I think they call a satellite facility, to go fulltime in that position after the peak?

    Honestly depends on need. Are there guys close to retirement? Is there any building booms going on in the area that would require new routes to be put on? Do any preload or twilight workers wanna go drive? (Probably not because nobody wants to work anymore). Find out what local they are in and call a business agent and he should be able to give you the likely hood of it.

    Yeah I thought you could too. But I thought you could only do once or twice in your life. Plus it was like one half of the country. Like Jersey can go to Nashville. But not Colorado.

    I made a hell of a lot more than most people would think. It was a pretty big pay cut going to feeders. If you wanna hustle the money is there. They are getting worse and worse with trimming time out of the time studies but it can still be done.
     
    USMC 3531 and truckdriver31 Thank this.
