[QUOTE="helenofcalifornia, post: 105062, member: 5170"] One of the most interesting things I have learned at a safety meeting was how many times a package driver gets into his truck yearly. something like 30,000-40,000 times a year on average. From the higher stepped trucks carrying a package or two, you can hit the ground with 400 pounds of force on your knees. No wonder knees hurt and are injured. If UPS cared, they would somehow find some sort of adaption for the step until we all have the newer trucks with the lower step. And don't start me on no power steering and my shoulders!!! I don't mean to be a whiner, but how serious is UPS when they know about these problems and the future (not immediate) consequences on the drivers. [/QUOTE]
