    I started there in 1988 loading package cars during peak season. I was responsible for loading 5 package cars, approximately 1500-1600 packages within a 4 hours time span 5 days weekly. I became a part time supervisor in early 1989 and lasted there until 2000. The abuse and, intimidation of employees was like nothing you would ever expect. I used their student loan program and got the hell outta there once I realized that I had no chance for advancement. I wasn’t willing to join the good ole boy network that existed there. The internet is not big enough for me to list the things I witnessed during my time there. And, the list would not be good.

      I just started the package handler position last week and quickly noticed a bunch of my coworkers are overgrown children looking to put others down. I think they're purposely doing something to give me misloads and the supervisors aren't around to keep their workers in check. Got anything to share of how to deal with such a toxic workplace? I'm willing to tough it out for a driver position. Or is it possible to transfer to another local location perhaps?

    I started par time at ups, worked 14 months at that, then got promoted to package car, 7 years later I moved on to Feeders (18 wheelers) spent 30 years there. I retired with a nice pension. Job is difficult initially, but gets easier the longer you're there. Not everyone is cut out for that job. By the way, I have never heard any UPS facility called a warehouse. Nothing gets stored there.

    Just cus ups works out for SOME people doesn’t mean it will work for EVERYONE. I saw a comment saying you have to work hard to get further in life: no shit…
    The problem is , not everyone who works hard WILL get that Driver spot for sure. I know a lot of people just waiting on it and not even sure the chance will come. There’s a difference between putting in hard work and just getting used and taken advantage of to the point you break your body for the POSSIBILITY of a better career in the future. We don’t live in a time where we can afford the luxury of waiting. I’m tired of all these old heads saying we complain or got it easy when this generation works the most hours and has the most productivity in decades and we STILL can’t afford to move out on our own. We’re just the generation that’s finally had enough of this BS.
