Since I'm too lazy to go lift weights/work out on my own, this will be good for me... 2.5-4 hours a day 5 days a week, average package weight is 40lb.


Hope you enjoy it. My friend has been working at UPS for years, they only started having him do deliveries about a year and a half ago. From the stories on what he tells me that happens at work, working at UPS isn't for everyone, thats for sure. Apparently, dislocated fingers, arms, getting knocked out cold by boxes dropping is a common thing.

NA6C-Guy 05-05-2010 12:56 AM

I tried to get a job at UPS/Overnight (UPS bought out Overnight, not sure if it's local or international) for like a year, even with my uncle being a truck driver I couldn't get a job there.

FRT_Fun 05-05-2010 12:57 AM

I tried to get a job there like 6 years ago... ended up getting another job before that happened.. oh well.

NA6C-Guy 05-05-2010 01:08 AM

OH NO! WHY GOD! Damn it 4chan!!! Someone brought up Faygo cola, which I have drank many times over the years, and always liked it pretty well. After someone said it was made with real sugar, I did some research, but the research gave me info I didn't like. Apparently the band Insane Clown Posse supports Faygo and talks about it in their songs. I don't know if I can bring myself to drink it anymore, knowing a bunch of goddamn juggalos drink it.

I FUCKING HATE JUGGALOS!!! HATE Honestly, I can't think of a group of people I hate more than them. Bunch of trailer trash, inbred rednecks that run their fucking mouthes and talk shit, all with their faces painted up like retarded clowns. Thank god I have never encountered them in real life. I hope they stay isolated to their little hole in the wall, backwood trailer park and leave me the fuck alone!

FRT_Fun 05-05-2010 01:11 AM

The miata needs to have an air cooled engine. So sick of draining coolant. Yes I'm that lazy. Stupid cheap ass metal tubes that lead to and from the heater core are leaking like the little bitches they are. I'm in TX now, eff it I"m gonna loop that shit.

The ones under the dash, that come out of the fire wall? Brass?

FRT_Fun 05-05-2010 01:16 AM

Yea those ones.. is it brass? idk.. They are leaking. On either side of the firewall.. Sigh.

If it's from rubbing against the firewall, you can slide a piece of rubber hose over the bad spot and put clamps on it to stop the leak, and the hose will also act as protection, like a grommet. I've had to do that before, to avoid new hard lines and dash removal.

FRT_Fun 05-05-2010 01:24 AM

Hmm. I'm gonna have to drain the coolant either way... unless there is a reason to keep the heater core other than for heat I will probably just loop the lines and remove the rest this fall when start my new projects.

That would be best. Still get a little heat in the winter just from the firewall and tunnel radiation.

Yeah. I have a good bit of warehouse expierence though. They walked us around to show us what goes on there. Some of the guys were getting chicken about having to do that much physical labor. I laughed. At one of my previous jobs, all we did was unload and sort 53ft trailers of various product that was stacked floor to ceiling ....boxes from 1lb to rolls of carpet weighing 75lb in the same truck.....and did that for 8+ hrs a day....making loading trucks for 3.5hrs seem like a cake walk.

A good friend of mine used to work at UPS in the warehouse for 3-4 years. It was a good job no doubt about that, but I used to HATE when he would bitch about the labor. I was like dude, your fucking inside, probably dont walk more than a few hundred feet a day, lifting boxes that are less than 100lbs, for a 8 hour shift. I would tell him to come pour concrete with me for a 14 hour day in the rain and he'll never bitch about his "cush" job again. He would usually shut up after that.

Good luck landing the job dude. :bigtu: I know like 5 or 6 people that do, or have worked at UPS and the benefits and pay is pretty good. Who knows, maybe you'll luck out and get a drivers position and you can rock those fag shorts they make you wear. lol :giggle:

Yes it IS hard work but worth the return. He also mentioned that there was an avenue for him to work his way up, which not all jobs have, even if/when they claim you can.



Yeah, the guy that is working with us only works there part time as a manager and that's his only job...so I'd imagine working hard and stepping up pays off quite well. Hell, if I were ever offered a driver position, I'd quit my fulltime job in a heartbeat and take it....those drivers make good money. It was also explained how there are different tasks i nthe sorting process and that some of the jobs require a little extra training...but learning to do such jobs nets $1-$2 raises as soon as you learn them.

Thank you, Sir.

I'd rock those shorts proudly....maybe even wear them when I'm off the clock...like to the mall or in da club.

We're going camping this friday night. While I do enjoy camping, Id rather sit at my buds house at the bonfire, as we pass an old five string and the 'shine. But, we're going to the Cherokee NF, and no drinking allowed, plus its only for one night. Not really a waste, but I really feel a goooood DRUNK coming on...

Doppelgänger 05-05-2010 10:51 AM

I hate that new damn KitKat commercial...the one where people push like 8 buttons to get a damn KitKat that they clearly didn't even pay for. Not to mention that if all the selections are the same, what's the point in even pushing multiple buttons? Why not have a simple "dispense" button...one big button. But no, they have to make some mutilation of the KitKat jingle out of pushing buttons. Damn that shit is annoying.

buffon01 05-05-2010 10:57 AM

Here is something about USPS.

Gospeed sold me a Valve cover, and used two boxes taped over lapping each other to package it. Well I reused those boxes to package a seat tower brace bar. Apparently if you use any part of a "Priority" box you have to pay for "Priority" shipping.

Bad Religion, but close. Both were on Epitaph Records.


He rules the world with tooth and nail

They can't tell us why, they just fall in line
And he shall rule the world

And he shall and he shall rule the world

lol
Go to YT and type in Goldfinger- City with two faces and listen to the bridge where he is listing off bands..you'll swear he says Badger Legion in place of Bad Religion.

Badger Legion just sounds funny.

Braineack 05-05-2010 12:17 PM

I dont have to go you tube to hear it, i could just play it on my itunes, or I could just know exactly what you are taking about.

Like how many times did we say the world fuck anyways? 7 to be exact.

Doppelgänger 05-05-2010 12:18 PM

I didn't know anyone knew who Goldfinger was anymore lol

Braineack 05-05-2010 12:19 PM

I have their discography so it rotates on my ipod often. In fact I'm sure just in the last two days I've heard at least 5 of their songs pop up.

Doppelgänger 05-05-2010 12:21 PM

I don't own an iPod.

But I am listening to CAKE. win.

if you say so.

Doppelgänger 05-05-2010 12:25 PM

I do. You can't hate on the Cake.

I'm actually using Jango here at work. Not bad since I can't get Pandora (filter own3d). Picks a pretty good selection of shit to listen to...as it now has me listning to Nada Surf. Jango doesn't bitch slap you for flipping though songs..it will play a 15 second ad when you flip though like 20 songs....and one can listen to some songs on demand when you get a hair up your ass to hear something. You know... for those of us who refuse to own Apple products.

Rocky64 05-05-2010 02:10 PM

so, i'm reading Corky's book again, and i want to understand better what he is suggesting about retard/advance under boost.... so i use our wonderful search feature, here at MT, and plug in retard...

i have found 8 threads with links to M.net with search results for "retard". i had to stop reading those links, cause i was getting stupider for reading that dumb shit... wtf?

i'm not shitting on M.net, maybe the "retards" i was reading about dont like it here?

just an observation...
