I once had a UPS Capt email me about what I knew about Gojet cause his son wanted to work there. I told him what I thought about it based on what I know from the net. He proceeded to tell me I was full of crap cause only whiners and complainers post at aviation web sites. Then I told him if he felt that way then it was dumb to ask a moderator at an aviation website what my opinion was in the first place....
I'm sure his son is at Gojet as we speak and will have an inside track at UPS in a few years.
UPS hired one GoJet pilot so far, am sure management doesn't care, may actually think it is beneficial, (potential future flying supervisor?<ng>). Nepotism rules are still in place as Av8r stated. Nepotism rules apply to cousins as well, etc. UPS did drop nepotism rules in other parts of the business, but not for UPSCO pilots.
