[QUOTE="Re-Raise, post: 941845, member: 16501"] I deliver to a book bindery every morning from another package car prior to returning to the building and beginning my bid route. I don't mind because it gives me a great time allowance because of the double trip and extra packages. I am in good enough shape that the number packages isn't a problem. I deliver between 150 and 250 pieces there as they stack them on pallets at their dock. The Fed Ex ground guy shows up there the same time every day. He delivers between 10 and 20 pieces. He pulls up to the dock next to mine and it takes him about 10 minutes and it takes me about 30 minutes. You keep throwing out this comparison of wages between the Fed Ex contractors and a UPS driver. We are paid more because we are more productive. If I were paid by the piece as the contractors at Fed Ex are for the packages I deliver in a day my wages would still be higher than his. [/QUOTE]
