    being a veteran and working on veteran's day seems kind of wrong.

    making 2.5x overtime, however, is totally sweet.

    A vet and currently working... no overtime either.. this just sucks :) Thx for the comments guys, and a bigger thanks to our guys in Iraq / Durka, Durkastan... 1 day of their service means more than all 4 years of mine in the USAF...

    ^^^ been out for some years now, I was talking about no OT at my current job... but yeah, plenty of 12hr+ nights wrenching on F-16's for about 18k a year while I was in.. I'd like to think they made up for it with $9.50 cases of Heineken ;)

    no OT? sucks for you. I'd never go salaried unless I was a boss or it was really lucrative.

    double time on sundays, 15 paid holidays, and 2.6x OT for holidays

    ^^ Not salaried... UPS is just picky on what THEY consider a holiday. 3 holidays are 3x pay, the others are 2x if worked...
