I load trucks at FedEx Ground as a Package Handler. 15 Hours a week isn't enough so I am applying for other jobs around the area. One of which is USPS. Their starting pay is slightly under driving as an IC for FedEx.
Why should I have to go through the hassle of getting a delivery job at USPS when FedEx has routes open at my hub? I can do both FedEx/USPS but I can't do FedEx then hop on a truck to deliver packages? Conflict of interest? What does that mean? Is there a way around it?
My dilemma is I can't just drop being a Package Handler because that is where I get my insurance. I've heard so many mixed comments on if IC get benefits or not. I know that USPS doesn't get benefits until after your first 360 day term. Working under a contracting service would be similar for FedEx?
