UPS is a phenomenal job, I wouldn't quit, just trying to understand current practices. TIA.

I like international long haul flights, transcons, long layovers... Have flown years of heavy freight and have four internal LORs, I think I have a grip on the schedules and lifestyle.
You seem very particular about the kind of flying you are going to be doing as a new hire. Maybe night cargo is not a good fit?
