[QUOTE="Brown287, post: 668880, member: 14940"] Funny thing about the concept of 4 10's. Before implementation of EDD they had all of us time studied, anyhow this guy rode with me whose sole job at UPS was to do time studies. Guess what he worked 4 10's. This came up in conversation while I inquired into his desire to ever be a driver, he said no due to the difficulty of our job. Anyway I asked why 4 10's, his answer was that UPS is very aware that the driver job in almost all cases goes beyond 10 hours a day. So to avoid paying these guys overtime they work 4 10 hour shifts. I walked away from this with two thoughts. First it's a funny thing what UPS will admit to behind closed doors. Secondly it says a lot that someone whose job is to go around and time study drivers with the parameters that UPS sets forth, comes to the conclusion that not only is our job extremely difficult but almost impossible to do consistently under their parameters. Funny, no just UPS! [/QUOTE]
