[QUOTE="kingOFchester, post: 938944, member: 11246"] Why should the wage's be balanced? Driver deal with customers. Drivers deal with shippers. We have to explain why their box looks like a shredded pizza box. Drivers take on the responsibility of driving a truck threw towns and school zones. Drivers have to be "on" 100 percent of the time to lesson the risk of killing an innocent bystander that may be fetching a ball under a several ton vehicle. Navigating living obstacles in a several ton truck. We have to maintain a clean life style in order to perform our job and lesson the risk to the public. Drivers have to be certified by the state. I could go on and on. I can't count the amount of times I have seen or smelled pre loaders after partaking in smoking weed in the parking lot. Drivers have to account for C.O.D's. Drivers have to be sure to have Air's delivered to customers in the time frame promised by UPS. Drivers have the responsibility to inspect the vehicle to be sure there are no hazards. Drivers can't, or I should say shouldn't be partying hours before punching in to be as close to 100%. Driver have uniforms to clean and maintain. Driver are required to maintain a certain appearance like shaving and hair cuts. A good portion of my free time is dictated by my job. When i was part time, my free time was not dictated by UPS. I could go on and on. I was a part timer. it sucks. Know doubt. But to level the pay scale is down right absurd. On top of all that....drivers went threw the ranks, did your jobs........so that they can make what they do! [/QUOTE]
