What Bert Has To Say About Ocala Metro Area. Ocala, a small agricultural and manufacturing center, is about halfway between Gainesville to the north and Orlando to the southeast.

A friend of mine here works part time for UPS (you have to do so for about 6 years to get on) and he makes $14 an hour just doing loading of trucks. He used to ride with a driver during holidays and said the one he was with made like 25-26 an hour...and if they work over 8 hours, they get overtime at 1.5 rate.
