Hey,
I work the preload at UPS right now ... started during peak season last year. Around the same time I put in a FedEx express application, and in January went in and did the interview and testing and stuff ... yesterday I got a call asking if I wanted to interview for an a.m. courier position at FedEx. (the only position I said I was interested in.) So I have a question:
Can anyone give me facts (like numbers) as far as the insurance costs at FedEx? And information on the quality of that insurance? I'm trying to weigh the advantages of switching vs. staying. So far my first negative is that there's no union, therefore there doesn't seem to be nearly the stability and security. Positives would be a normal working schedule, not 3:50-8 in the morning, and the higher hourly pay. I'm just trying determine whether the positives outweigh the negatives.
P.S. This is not a career for me. It's a sideline to bring in extra income and provide health benefits for myself and my family.
