Are most people happy? Seems like the FedEx peeps are happier, at least on the forums.

A pay raise, aircraft acquisitions, and hiring make us happy. Same as anywhere else. It's been a rough 8 years, as such, the whining and complaining.

Google is a wonderful thing.

"UPS jobs" "pilot"

...and voilà:

https://www.jobs-ups.com/job/louisvi...r/1187/3705076

It gives you 4 choices. Click on "First Officer".

Do NOT recommend the flight qualified supervisor position.

Just submitted my application and immediately got a notification that they are reviewing other candidates and will not be continuing with the process. Haven't been rejected that quick since college. Was it something I said...?

Probably not. Seems more like take a number and wait your turn...no one seems to know exactly what triggers it one way or the other.

If offered a "manager" position, do NOT take it!!!
By definition they are not a manager:
"A person who has control or direction of a institution or business; a person who controls or manipulates resources and expenditures"
Non Union Replacement Pilots (NURP) at UPS are not managers, they are told what to do, have no ability to control or manipulate the company and have no union protection. Just as with the Teamster strike in 1997, they ALL flew strike goods across union picket lines=SCAB.
A "manager" position @ UPS is not a respected position here.
**NEVER accept a non union pilot position @ UPS!!

Haha, You're HIRED !

You'd fit right in.

In all seriousness, sorry to hear. The hiring system/qualifications game is a mystery.
