[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 3554697, member: 58386"] At Ground, there are 3 people on every truck. One coming, one driving and one leaving. Driving for a contractor is little more than transitional employment, just a job between jobs. Something just to tide you over until the kind of job that you will gladly dedicate yourself to comes along. The unfortunate reality is that driver employee is expected to go out there and in terms of stops and boxes matches or exceeds what the average UPS driver does in a day and do it for an overall compensation ( wages + benefits) of about 1/3 what that average UPS driver gets. The reality is that contractors many of whom are heavily leveraged are betting everything they have on the belief that there will always be somebody readily available who will go out there and deliver top of the scale performance for bottom of the scale money and do it on a continuous daily basis for an extended period of time. Will contractors continue to find these people? It will depend on their labor market . [/QUOTE]
