If you knew who I was, you'd know I don't have a complex and certainly am not insecure. I guess an asterisk is something good then.

"Unless you are Bob Lekites son in law maybe or something like that."
That would be brother-in-law. One of our management moles on the B&G. Hired in 97 (MIA dom) and can't wait to spew all the latest to the Dark Side. TH1 |
As long as we are talking about UPS, I think we should include this.

jungle,
You're the best. Everytime you post something I end up LMAO. |
Well, I hope I am the next UPS driver hired as a pilot! By the time I am eligible I will have invested 15 yrs with UPS from package handler, car wash, to driver. I spent 4 yrs prior to that as a controller in the Navy. Went to college while I was part timer with degree in Aviation. Only when I started making decent money driving did I start flying lessons. So I am flying the wings off my Cessna 150 aquiring ratings and taking a leap in 3 yrs at 37 to build twin turbine time. The problem is I have a wife and kids so I need decent pay during transition. I have a job waiting with a local frieght company but not great $$. I know it won't be 75K like I am use to as a driver but...my fellow pilot friends say it is a required step.
Open to suggestions.

I think that you are being too optimistic about the package handling time. As far as UPS promoting from within: I've been here 3 years and maybe have flown with one capt who used to drive trucks here, but it was unrelated to his hiring on as a pilot.

Open to suggestions. What a great story you'll have when you make it to the top! I love hearing stories like yours - when its in your blood, its in your blood. Good luck! |
"but...my fellow pilot friends say it is a required step."
It is. I know a gateway manager with a CFI who can't take the pay cut. Amflight is a great way to go. |
