Does Fedex pay shift differential? A lot of company's pay a dollar or more for overnight shifts, something to consider.

well i went to my interview at kragen and i passes with flying colors.
and the manager offered me a job on the spot.
but the hours she wanted me to work was like 3/4-10pm and i start at 930pm at fedex.
so i called my mom to see what the hell i should do.
so my mom said to see if i could work mid day. and work at both jobs.
so i told the manager whats going on, and she said that if she was my mom she would want me to go to fedex also, and she said that she would hold my application for 3 months and if i change my mind she would offer me a job. at fedex there is a probationary 3month time, then after that you can choose to stay and your benefits will start or quit.
so im going to just work at fedex for now and see how i like it after the 3 months.

What do you mean they give you 100.00 for uniform allowance? They make you buy their uniforms? Or they supply them and you wash them?
