I hope I am not saying something that none of you will relate with…but every time I come on to thus website it shows me 29$ and hour jobs and than I see it says ups or FedEx or whatever….question did any of you ever see a Jewish person in these companies?
My UPS driver is a chasidishe yungerman, with the payos and the whole nine yards. Instead of wearing a UPS hat he wears a shtreimel.
Happygirlygirl – nope and i hope not.

“nope and i hope not”
Why?
You hope not? Why?
adocs and apushatayid – because i hope they have better jobs.
Sparkly, you know not everyone is cut out for college, and anyways $29 an hour is pretty good money.
Working for Fedex or UPS is a perfectly fine job. We have to stop disrespecting people who work in jobs that involve moving or working with objects.
Do you need any education to be a fedex/ups driver?
If not then $29/hour isn’t bad at all
bk613 – in this generation everyone NEEDS college whether or not they want it.

“My UPS driver is a chasidishe yungerman, with the payos and the whole nine yards. Instead of wearing a UPS hat he wears a shtreimel. “
A shtreimal during the week?
I assume you are kidding.
Sparkly,
bk613 didn’t say some people don’t want college. He/she said some people aren’t cut out for college. For those people to go to college is simply a waste of time because they will either (A) fail out or (B) end up with a useless degree. College will only give them a false sense of hope, and set them up for disappointment.
Jobs like the ones the OP mentioned are perfect opportunities for those people.
“because i hope they have better jobs.”
According to the website glassdoor the average UPS driver earns a salary in excess of $81,000 a year plus benefits and a pension. How many other jobs could someone with no college degree (and often no high school diploma) find with that type of compensation?
Happygirlygirl – im sure there are.
Meno – doing badly in some courses doesnt mean failing out.
Happy: Can you maneuver packages up to 70 lbs. in weight?
Sparkly Your statement that everyone needs college is false. A UPS driver is the perfect example. There are plenty of people who won’t be successful in college, for a variety of reasons, therefore, going to college would be a waste of time and money.
Sparkly,
Failing out means failing out.
Not even sure what your response was supposed to mean.
Happy,
I’ve seen female garbage collectors. I’ve heard they make good money too. And I don’t think there’s a mandatory uniform, other than maybe reflective vests. Just in case UPS doesn’t work out for you 🙂
Meno – if someone fails out of a science major or engineering i heard is suppose to be REALLY HARD that doesnt mean they wont do well in psychology classes.
Sparkly,
I said that some people aren’t cut out for college, and the best they can get is a useless degree. For those people, this job makes sense.
Not everyone is as smart as you.
“Is there such a thing as a female ups girl?”
I think I’ve seen it, but they are kind of burly.
“I think I’ve seen it, but they are kind of burly”
Right, I forgot to mention that the female garbage collectors that I’ve seen were very burly as well. More burly that many men.
Meno – im NOT that smart but smart enough to barely make it through a good pharmacy school.
“Is there such a thing as a female ups girl?”
I sure hope there are no female ups boys.
adjective (of a person) large and strong; heavily built.
apushatayid – me too.
I’d also like to point out that some people enjoy being active and can’t sit behind a desk, it doesn’t reflect on your intelligence in any way.
Sparkly,
Me too
bk613 – i cant sit at a desk all day but i do for school.
So you can sit, if you want to. Some people cant, why are you refusing to acknowledge that?
bk613 – because if someone with anxiety can sit and study form MANY hours than anyone can.
Happygirlygirl – after college you go out to work.
Sparkly,
So you won’t acknowledge that for some people it’s even harder to sit than it is for you?
Are you the most anxious person in the world?
“we are not all shaped from one cookie cutter..in fact were all from different ones”
Imagine making cookies, and you have a lot of different cookie cutters, and you can only use each one once…
What does G-d do with all those used cookie cutters?
(Btw, Happygirlygirl, I don’t mean to make light of what you said. It was very well said and I totally agree with it. I’m just a clown and have trouble passing up an opportunity for a joke. Now that I’m reading it, I don’t think my joke was even very good. I’ll just stop here)
Meno – i LITERALLY started frieking out during my test like i get up and kept walking out.
Happygirlygirl – do you get up and walk around during a test because you cant focus? do you start frieking out during a test? does your stomach hurt you before you take a test?
Sparkly,
So you won’t acknowledge that for some people it’s even harder to sit than it is for you?
Are you the most anxious person in the world?
Meno, I can’t take it XD
29,
Well they don’t call me Meno for nothing
Meno – i was saying that i cant focus on tests because i get anxious and either start thinking that i dont know something even if i do or anxious that i really dont know something and my stomach hurts before a test.
Ugh…
Sparkly,
So you won’t ack…
Oh forget it. Who am I kidding…
Happygirlygirl – i do relax when i take my yoga class and read books but i LOVE school and HATE taking tests.
Well said Meno
Happygirlygirl – thats insulting.
