[QUOTE="Spoiler, post: 1368128, member: 54291"] Hey all, My husband has been working for UPS for over 18 years. He went Combo about 12 years ago. He is happy with his job, but would like to make more money. He has often thought about going driving for Package Car. However, although the money is good, he sees the amount of stress the drivers are under. Both of us have held back on him driving, because we don't feel the amount of money is worth the amount of stress. He recently heard from a feeder friend that they may be opening some feeder positions for Combo Workers and that they will be train for free. We know that the money for feeder positions are much higher then what he is making now ($26.00 hr) He also doesn't have a great schedule but I am guessing a good schedule will not happen with feeders for awhile either (no sleeper runs here) We are looking for some advice on this subject. Have any of you regretted moving up to package car? Would you have stayed Combo if you had to do it over again? Have any of you regretted moving up to Feeder positions? What is the stress level difference between Feeder and Package Car? Is it about the same? Better? Just looking for some general advice. Any input is appreciated! [/QUOTE]
