[QUOTE="Bagels, post: 1063661, member: 43436"] It sounds like the OP was being given a cart full of packages and being instructed to deliver them himself. This is what UPS wanted its drivers to do in my building this year. But I don't blame many of the helpers who quit. Sure, many do so because of the physical nature of the job -- it's challenging for even the most fit people, since it's different workout than what they're use to -- and would rather work elsewhere for similar money. But from somebody who's worked with over 50 drivers in his career, I can say that some drivers are a-holes to work with. Long before telematics and GPS, I worked with a driver who insisted I run as fast as I could and take a dump in a DR bag if I had to go. We'd finish by 2-3PM and his 350 lb. frame would proceed to the all-you-can-eat buffet where he'd hang out until it was time to return to the building many hours later. If this was my first experience, I would've quit too.... [/QUOTE]
