Ups Paid Move To Anc (need Info)??????

[Mooseflyer]

If the move is not a 2 way deal, I think a newhire would be crazy to sign the agreement, especially if they are a mil reserve/guard.

Explain this please (the reserve/guard part). Thanx.

Let's suppose Maj Moose is a C-17 Reservist at CHS. He applies and gets hired at UPS. UPS loves his experience with McDon-Doug and decides to put him in the MD-11 at ANC. Maj Moose becomes First Officer Moose and goes to 8 weeks of training in SDF and then completes IOE. The first bid period after IOE, FO Moose strategically drops half his line so as to only have one commute a month to ANC and so Maj Moose can fulfill his military obligations.

You make more as an O-4 in the USAFR than you will as a probie at UPS. You can drop half your line for mil leave and still get credit for probation, insurance, and sick time accrual. Assuming hiring continues you may be able to bid back to SDF a year or so after being hired. Worst case I think you could hold ONT or MIA in your 2d year, which has to be an easier commute than ANC. If you sign an agreement which evidently only pays to move you up there you'd be stuck paying 15-20k to move yourself back from ANC.

Then again you could move to ANC and joing the C-17 unit at Elmendorf.
