[QUOTE="idrivethetruck, post: 1396425, member: 882"] First of all, we're "service providers" or "drivers". "Courier" is a FedEx term.:wink-very: Also, we call them "centers", not "stations". Now to answer your questions.... 1. Has already been answered but also, the contract allows outside hires at a certain ratio to inside hires. I believe this ratio may differ from region to region. 2. Driver morale pretty much sucks due to the long hours. You can count on 47-55 hours/week on average. 3. I would be happier with UPS if they wouldn't force me to work so many hours. (see answer #2) 4. Drivers have no input as to how routes are setup and they change daily as volume fluctuates. That being said, I have grossed over 90k for the past 8 years and I get a pension when I retire so if it's more money you're after, then go for it. [/QUOTE]
