[QUOTE="mrbrownstone, post: 2247878, member: 53460"] While I can't answer your question I would say that you may be best in another career. While dust concerns you and rightfully so, UPS can probably find another driver that doesn't share the same concern and won't fight the issue. I have a feeling that the noise level in some of the older trucks I drive as a cover driver a not good for my hearing but have not tested the actual decibel levels to know for sure. I think the general nature of this job is unsafe not matter how you look at it. For example, I don't believe our knees and joints were designed to get on and of a truck 400+ times a day (I do routes that go out with 200 to 220 stops) . I know the risk and am dealing with it for now but know I will only last 10 or so years. [/QUOTE]
