[QUOTE="Braveheart, post: 519350, member: 5831"] Top 10 easy. Not comparing to hazardous just over all how hard the job is or stressful. Lifting/carry/lowering hundreds of boxes, 125-150 stops per day,up and down out of seat and up and down out of truck stairs hundreds of times plus apt stairs, shifting gears what a thousand times, driving in traffic, dirt roads, crazy drivers, dogs, picky customers, working in the rain/sleet/snow/freezing temps/100 degree temps/70% humidity/ air commit times, ssi commit times, no 12-1 closed, all business off by 5pm, air saver commits, pick up commit times, air bay commit, on call airs, and the management as they follow us around like we are criminals to expect perfection in safety, methods, all the while expecting us to run scratch despite traffic, accidents, whether, cod issues etc etc etc I think the micro management and non-stop go go go is what drives me crazy. When I first started driving over 10 years ago it was work hard, steady pace, solid attendance, no missed pick ups, no accidents, rare complaints, rare late airs and rare del mistakes and you were fine. Now they want perfection in every single aspect or your fired. Roofers got to be in top 3. I threw sod but UPS is way more demanding. [/QUOTE]
