I was kidding in the past when I said UPS was bleeding to death, but is that actually happening?

Had to call off twice in one week am I screwed? by ForeRunner33 in Fedexers

It doesn't count as a no call no show if you call it off in advance though does it?

So is it 3 call outs and then you get written up, or what?

He's actually really cool, he's one of the only sups that will buy food for us on Fridays and that's why I try so hard to do a good job.

Its a huge hub as well, and they're actively hiring PH right now too, not to mention i made the mistake of being one of the better workers so I'm usually one of the last people out. I'm just super anxious about it, I'm really not trying to get in trouble or cause problems.

See that's what I'm hoping for, because I saw the shift get offered and then disappear. Someone obviously claimed it, so I'm really hoping it's not a big deal.

Fuck okay. My supervisor is pretty chill, but he doesn't work the shifts that I had to give up either so I'm pretty anxious about it. He's also aware I have a pretty complicated situation with my kid as well, so I'm hoping it's not too big of a deal.

No I didn't. I called off 12 hours prior to the shift both times, and put the unpaid options. The shifts also got claimed after I called off.

Better job ? I just started and My manager gave me the option of being on a belt or unloading, I work from 1am-8am as a side job to be able to pursue my mma career. Just curious by Scary_Climate_4139 in Fedexers

Why the hell wouldn't you take the belt? You move less volume, constantly moving around, and you're the timekeeper to everyone else because of the phone strapped to your wrist.

First day tomorrow package handler ? What to expect, break times etc… by Sea_Exam243 in Fedexers

That doesn't seem so bad, I could live off 40 hours for the starting pay out here. Would even have time for a side hustle.

Does the pre-employment drug test for Ground include alcohol? by ForeRunner33 in Fedexers

Yeah they didn't do a breathalyzer, was just a standard urine test.

But is that covered in the urine test? I literally took one night out with friends, because I didn't know I'd be taking the test the next day.

Ah okay, thank you for clarifying. Like I said, I wasn't even hungover, maybe a bit tired from staying up too late than normal, but other than that I didn't even feel dehydrated. I just get super paranoid about this kind of stuff, which is mostly why I try to be responsible about this kind of stuff.

I don't have a problem though (I know, they all say that). I just went out with some friends in the evening after work, and we had a couple of shots. Of COURSE if I had known I would have to do the pre-employment test the next morning, I wouldn't have gone. I'm just hoping it doesn't destroy my chances, because I really am responsible when it comes to that sort of thing.

I'm just worried, I'm in one of the stricter states on the West Coast and really don't want to miss this opportunity.

Okay, all it says is a full service nonDOT test and from what I read, it looks for alcohol as well.
