I can't believe......

[Trailer monkey]

how many people online cry about drivers getting $44 per hour, they take it personally and whine that it is unfair that they make less with a college degree

$44?.... I would never do this job for just $44!

Anyone that complains about how much drivers make I tell them they’re free to apply

They would quit wothin a week real once they have to deliver rod his anvil of the month club.
And finding out it is more than driving around and delivering a box every once in awhile!
And the way you get treated by management.

Our off the street feeders with bids.. off the street.. are clueless.

When you work for something you value it more.

I believe the founder of UPS knew this from experience.

Not a bad line, for a preloader.

Not every degree.
Just the BS ones that were a stupid decision to begin with.

This job is physical. There is no doubt. But even worse is the mental aspect of this job with the hours., time commits, stress, and dealing with management. Most people simply cannot put up with that for 25 and 30 years for any amount of money. it doesn’t become evident to outsiders until they give it a shot and realize.

If I only had a dollar for everyone that tried to qualify as a driver....

My buddy does drain service. He has little of what you would call formal education but makes a mint doing what can be some nasty work at times. I think he gets $300 to show up.

No one mentions traffic as an irritant on here.
Used to really piss me off. Especially around major sporting events, concerts, parades, street fairs, etc.

Add in dealing in with rude ass customers ( Walmart, Amazon, Kroger, construction sites etc ) on a daily basis and that adds another layer of difficulty

It’s an art form

Lots of time to think of witty responses to imaginary scenarios while I’m loading trucks

Right. Only the chosen can do the job. You drive around and deliver boxes. It's not rocket science.

It took me awhile, but I ultimately realized that 90% or more of the so-called stress of being a package car driver was stress I created for myself.

Once I surrendered to the clock, took it one delivery and package at a time, took all of my personal time daily, empowered myself by enacting all contractual protections, a huge weight was lifted from my shoulders, legs and back.

I made more money, did less work and the quality of all my time was greatly increased.

Not everyone is capable of this epiphany, but I have always offered my testimony to anyone willing to listen and invited them to heed the mindset I described.

I hope at least one person who reads this finds value in it.
