Hmmm, I have quite a few friends at Purple and that's the first I've heard. Pretty sure FedEx never had "over water" requirement. Now, they might have had a Marine, Navy, ANG, etc. requirement but that's a different story (and a joke only...
)
At UPS the transoceanic requirement was a very brief requirement (approximately a total of 8 months I believe). Who are your sources? Remember that if you’ve only “met” your friends on a message board, they’re probably not a very good “source.” Wait a minute! That doesn’t apply to us of course!!!
Ps. If your father is one of your sources and he works for UPS that means you won't be able to work for UPS unless he retires...but I'm sure you knew that already...
