    I have a road test tomorrow for a feeder driver position, anyone know if they have auto or manual transmission tractors? I can drive manual but not the best at it since the only experience I have with manual was in CDL school few months back

    UPS has all auto.
    Unless it is a Sterling or old Mack.
    The KW's are autos.As are the Freightliners.
    Good luck.

    I wouldn’t worry much, you’re probably a more experienced driver then the guy testing you…
    you have to have a degree to get his job lol

    they’re used to training guys from package car with no experience anyways

    Yes it’s seasonal with the opportunity to become permanent depending on how much volume is coming through the terminal afterwards.
