Well, we know that there have been some statements as to a 2nd class in June i.e. June 27. Has anyone been able to confirm with fair certainty that this class will happen? Some posts on previous threads seem to have credibility, but has there been an official annoucement from HR or the training dept. about this class?

Next, has anyone been called for their med. that isn't going to be in the June 6 class? It would seem that calls might go out here anytime if that June 27 class is going to happen? I know what lots of you may be saying - go on with what you are doing and they will eventually call - but as you can see from my profile, I have LOTS of time on my hands. There are only so many honey-do's a man can take! This is my release from the terrible world of housework.

Have a great weekend poolies, and may our preservers be retired soon!

1800,
There will be a class on 27 June and another small class on 7 July. And I know a friend of mine has been called for his medical and he is not going to be in the 13 June class. Good luck and hopefully you hear something soon.

It's been too quiet...

Now that the long weekend is over, let's hear some good news. It's been way too quiet out there. So...........?

1800 RVR :D
 
Ups

Still Waiting

1800

I haven't heard any words but thought I would check in anyway. The only words I have heard about recently have been on this board.

No physical yet for me.

Anyone have an idea how long it takes from physical to class date?

Good Luck to all....

Still swimmin

Farmer1,

How are you NOT available for June 27th class?
The only reason you should not be available is the following:

1. Giving birth.
2. Have your hemorrids remove.
3. have a FDX interview!

Just don't get it sometimes.
 
It's about time! Finally - it's nice to hear from you guys. It got all too quiet. The only bad thing is that we are all still here! :eek: I thought they had closed the pool for the season, and I was the only one who didn't get the memo. All kidding aside, hopefully the phones will start ringing for more of us.

Mr Supersonic

Francis1, I mean, Farmer1, lighten up!! We are all in this thing together and a good sense of humor will make the time pass faster, maybe even supersonically!!

Farmer1,
2.5B? Hmm..if memory serves, I don't think it was that expensive. But maybe there has been inflation in the last 2 weeks since I stopped flying it. Ha..just giving you grief. See you on property in a few weeks. You'll enjoy yourself.

Floater
 
Farmer1,

Chill dude is was just a joke.

If I were you I would hold your opinions to yourself!!

"Freedom of Speech", isn't that what you protect in your 2.5B Supersonic jet?

Ok time to tie down my $50K slow as a scooter C-152 and go slam some B-52s intill I feel like I am going supersonic!!!!
 
Floater/NewGuyII

Floater,

Thats why you were always my ***** in the jet, you could never get the facts straight...but now I will forever be junior to you my man! Get back to studying!

NewGuyII...I should have used the 30 minute rule...everyone has different reasons that may keep them from going to a class they may want to be in, some of them are out of their control...best of luck to you!

Cheers,

Farmer
 
Air Force contact info on PRIA forms

Not to hijack the thread, BUT...since there looks like there a couple of UPS poolies here with a USAF background, I thought this would be a good place to get a question answered.

When you completed your PRIA forms for UPS, did you list your unit's contact information, or is there general USAF contact information (i.e. personnel command) that is more appropriate.

On a side note, I did hear further substantiation from UPS HR that interviwing is slowing way down, which is hopefully good news for those of you in the pool.

Thanks for any assistance!
OK
 
I listed my units admin sections address. I showed the PRIA forms to the person responsible for maintaining our flight records and explained what they where because I put his name on the address line.
I used my units address because if there is any questions they can easily find me.
Hope this helps!

Swimming in the poo!

OK

Hopefully it won't come to a complete halt! Still waiting...
 
Okaythen,
When I filled mine out I actually called and asked the question as to what to put for an address. The HR folks told me to just put my CC's address and name and contact info on it. They (UPS) know they aren't getting records from the military and all they want it for is to verify that you were indeed working there and you are who you say you are. Although, I don't think they ever called my CC. Good luck. I imagine flight records would be able to do the same thing though...

You're where?!?!?!?!?!

Hey Joeylikey,

You're swimming in the what???? Your post says that you're swimming in the poo. I hope not. I know that some of these guys might be "releasing" things in the pool, but I hope not THAT! :eek: Maybe it's just a Baby Ruth?

I'm just kidding! Busting each others' chops are what we do here in the pool to pass the time. Congrats on joining us. When did you get the lucky letter? Grab a beer, some water wings, and kick back!

Waterlogged, and waiting... :D
 
Poo Pool

They don't call it the "Brown" pool for nothing!

I'm celebrating my 4th month since I've interviewed, what about you folks?
Just curious to see how long my swim compares to others. My arms and legs are getting tired.
I'm sure those guys who were in the pool prior to 9/11 are laughing at us new poolies complaining about a few months after what they went through.
 
1800 RVR,

Of all the words I misspelled, It would have to be that one! Talk about bringing on a whole new meaning to a sentence. I think it would of been funnier if I signed as "Floater"

I interviewed on 12 Apr and put in the pool 12 May. I've got plenty of time to drink beer and relax because I flew our last plane to the boneyard in Tucson back in Apr and there is nothing left on our ramp to fly! I'm putting off my training date for our new plane in hopes that UPS will call sometime in the next couple of months.

Swimming in the pool!

Joey
 
Also in the pool..

I will chime in here and say that I have been watching this thread, as I am also in the UPS Pool, and I appreciate everyone's input!

I interviewed at the end of March and recieved a letter around the end of April.
 
Still wading in the brown pool too. Interviewed second week in Feb. and poolie letter fourth week in March. This pool stuff is driving me nuts already. Wait.....is that my phone? Doh!....no such luck. I operate a flight into SDF once a week and it just rubs salt in the wounds.

I think I will try reverse psychology: Hope they don't call me today as I am much too busy.
 
Too funny!!!!

You guys crack me up! I guess it is pretty easy to make jokes when the word is poo! This jovial spirit makes the time go by quicker - as long as I don't keep the phone by my side. When I hear the doorbell ring, I try to answer the phone! :eek: My interview was late Mar. with a pool letter end of April. I am definitely a rookie in the pool. In time, we will all get out.

Keep the jokes going!!!!!!!

Ahhhh…a man with some perspective.

My husband is swimming in the pool, too. Interviewed end of March..recieved the letter end of Aprl. Thanks for all of the info!
 
Side question:

Whats the correct way to update the UPS application? I applied years ago, and have been trying to update the online app.

Is this the correct menu? :

Opportunities


Package Operations
Full-time Professional
Job Search
Create Resumé/CV
Edit Resumé/CV
Current Employees
Supply Chain Solutions

And then the Edit Resume/CV section? I seem to remember years ago, when I first applied that, there was more information than the Edit Resume/CV screen has.

Thanks
