I’ve only been here 1.5yrs and have been able to hold B rsv for the past 9 months. Of course I’m going to jinx myself with the bid tomorrow after saying that....

The Airbus and Domestic B757/767 crews fight over the best domestic hotel layover's to spend their 12 hours of daytime rest.

OK, most of this is a sarcastic summary of UPS flying, but some of it is true. UPS will chose your first fleet, you find your niche in the following years.

This is HILARIOUS! And true!

Hey trackpilot, it only took some of us 9+ years to hold RSVB. Enjoy the hiring wave, its better than the displacement/furlough tsunami

Sure feels like déjà vu, doesn’t it??

The good ‘ole days of ‘04-06’ when we saw many new faces and everyone seemed to be moving up relatively quickly..
...really hope it stays that way.

Is there anyone else waiting for a firm offer after the CJO phone call?

It’s been three weeks and I haven’t heard anything from UPS. Do they call with the firm offer or just email something?

Does anyone know when they typically notify a new hire of what hotel they are staying at, where they report on day one, and what time this all starts on day one?

I’m starting to think I imagined the phone call earlier this month and I’ve been hallucinating.

Has anyone received information about where we stay, what time we report, and where we report to on the 27th?

6 days to go and I haven’t heard anything.
