Spill the beans what is it Amway ,Herbalife
Nope. Its just a great opportunity for me. Certainly better than Fedex, but at this point, there are many things better than Fedex. I am looking forward to not dreading work everyday and actually having a life again.Spill the beans what is it Amway ,Herbalife
Some sort of magical oil

I gotta get one of them there advisors.My advisor had me set for a 3% increase for this year. Unfortunately, due to the present climate, we might need to bump it a little more to have the same buying power.
Hey, I understand if you’re embarrassed to say what your “great opportunity” isNope. Its just a great opportunity for me. Certainly better than Fedex, but at this point, there are many things better than Fedex. I am looking forward to not dreading work everyday and actually having a life again.
RTD you drive a truck at UPS just like FedEx one is white one s brown I know 3 personally and still in touch, if it doesn’t work out lots of crappy delivery jobs out there.
But going to UPS feeders you will pull doubles and be stuck working nights for years. Most couriers dont want to work nights they already complain about only working long hours during the day now try working long hours overnightYou need to get RTD training and get to UPS immediately UPS loves FedEx drivers. The training is good and the big trucks are not as hard as they look, you have a better view of the road from up there,24.0 hr.is awful for your area.
Very believable. There nothing more dreadful than going thru 2 sorts, seeing management face twice in day and going to stops 2/3 times a day. The inefficiency is pathetic and its just more wear tear on the body. Even if you shuttle or waiting for a shuttle the response crap makes your entire workday uncertain. you deserve every pennyfor that time consuming nonsense.Topped out courier. Thanks to Response, and gross mismanagement, I made 86k last year. Kids grown, house paid for, no debt. Im retiring from Fedex and pursuing another career.
very true. I use to run a midnight air sort and remember chasing feeder 'shifters' to get trailers rotated..,most were try to get a quick nap or large cup of coffee.... all the action is in the inbound primary on twi and overnight- hub/feeders run the night. Package division and preload runs the dayBut going to UPS feeders you will pull doubles and be stuck working nights for years.

Where do you apply I just retired? Also if you get your Cdl from FedEx the post office has incredible easy positions available.I just found out you can be a part time online grocery shopper for Amazon/ Whole Foods and make 35,000 a year. Wtf.
Not sure, my guess obviously online.Where do you apply I just retired? Also if you get your Cdl from FedEx the post office has incredible easy positions available.
How will it increase? Is your pension that high ($8050/mo)?$96,600 last year. Once I start drawing a pension in a few years, that will increase. Everyday was Saturday for me. No mortgage, never had a car note. Spend about $200 a month on weed, hate to think how much I spend on golf and replacement clubs. My biggest monthly expense is $350 for cells, internet and Directv. Travel constantly and play with classic cars, but the cars have a positive return at times. Still was able to save a few $ even though that wasn't my plan. Life is good.
Sounds like my route. UPS routes in my area are about as tight as mine, but with double, sometimes triple, the stops.....offpeak. I live in an area similar, and not far, from my route and sometimes see the UPS driver at 1900-2000. By that time, I've been home, showered, made and ate dinner and helping the kids with their homework (they're in college now, I can't help anymore). I'll take that over the money any day.4th year at express made 53k, but also made another 50k from internet marketing

I haven't began drawing my pension yet. Living on my 401k for 5 years while my pension grows by almost 11% a year. When I hit 65 I am going to start my increased pension and lower my 401k withdrawal a SMALL amount. I figure to start drawing SS around 67, depends on what the market does to my 401k.How will it increase? Is your pension that high ($8050/mo)?
Every "We do the same job as UPS and we should be paid similarly" crank should read your post. Working at Express is way easier than UPS.14 year express RTD making $27.xx an hour. I understand the pay is bad. I’ve been making between $50K-$60K for years. The one thing I can say about this job is I’m home a lot. It’s why I haven’t left. Very VERY few class A CDL jobs are going to let you work 8 hours and go home. No other class A CDL job in the country is going to pay me to shuttle freight to the hub, sleep in the truck for 3-4 hours on the clock, and drive back… I know this job is a trucking unicorn. Will I ever make UPS money, no. And that’s cool.

Ya my gripe has never been “pay me UPS money”… it’s always been “pay me topped out FedEx money”. Because believe it or not there are guys that do less than me and make WAY more money.I couldn't agree more. I don't do the same job as UPS. However, I do the same job as everyone else at FedEx.
So why don't we start by getting rid of the market levels and pay everyone the highest market level? That's still a far cry from what UPS pays.
Life is good for you. Maybe buy some baby wipes and clean me up.$96,600 last year. Once I start drawing a pension in a few years, that will increase. Everyday was Saturday for me.
