Couple questions for delivery drivers

[jumpman23]

The only good part about the job anymore is the money. Aint too many places to work that your going to make 70k and above with health benefits and retirement without a college degree.

They must not be topped out then. If I worked 50 hours a week for 52 weeks, I would not do it for any less than $100,000.

You realize its only August 7th right. He is making on average about 9k a month.... Still got Aug, Sept, Oct, Nov, and Dec and he will work 8 hours on black Friday.

For now. Can that still be expected in 5-10 years when the OP starts driving?

Are drivers being put under the microscope more and more now? i.e. more close supervision?

I have been a cover driver (unassigned driver, whatever you want to call it) for almost a year now and have been with UPS for 8 years.

I've only been trained on one route and luckily it's about 95% residential stops so I'm usually only on the clock for about 9-10 hours a day and do anywhere from 170-200 stops. I drive 2 or 3 times a week.

My goal every day is to finish my work as safely (primarily) and quickly (close second) as possible so I can go home and relax.

Yep!!! They are constantly coming up with new "reports" to track every move you make.

Don't tell me that's the computer that you guys use to punch in and out, because I can't tell you how awful your camera is if it is the computer you guys use to punch in and out.

 

[Cementups]

Yes.

 

[Back first]

I have been driving for 14 years. I punch in at 8:40 and punch out around 6:30-7:00. Gotta love the 95 rule.
