UPS Package Handler (UPS employees only)?

Question

I've been a package handler for 2 weeks with UPS. I'm still getting used to the job...as it can take some time. The supervisors are always hounding me and this other guy who's been there for 2 years to get the packages off the belt into the truck. I'm just now getting the hang of where the packages go on the truck and in the correct order. It's only my 2nd week...i'm not that fast yet! Can they fire me or something for not being fast but having no missed loads?

Answer 1

Welcome to the UPS family!!

According to the Union Contract, they can not fire you for that reason. Show up to work on time, don't walk on the moving belt, no stealing, no fighting, no alcohol at work, basicly, they can not do anything to you, even if you are not a Union member yet. Just don't make any mistake which will become a reason to fire you, and performece and misload is not one.

Answer 2

NO! , No performance termination, just do the job to the best of your ability and safely. Also show up to work.
