Just out of curiosity, how many of the package cars(trucks) are manual transmission? I don’t feel like I’ve ever seen a driver shifting and I pay attention to them because I’ve wanted to join the Upsers for a while. I can drive a manual car so I’m sure I could manage but I just have never seen one to my knowledge.
Manual transmission?

The center I worked in only had 2. A bulk truck, and the package car was used as a post office car. That's out of about 50 cars. So 4%?

Haven't had one in a few years, they're phasing them out.

Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.
I wouldn’t worry about it. Also, you may change your mind about wanting to work at UPS after you get a taste of it. Many are called but few are chosen.
Then I make it my mission to be one of the chosen ones. I was made for this. I was the happiest in my career making deliveries. I really want to be a part of the leader in logistics. I understand many are jaded and maybe you’re right. But I have to try for me

Go for it. What did you deliver and for who?
Medical cannabis. I built a logistics department for a startup company in that industry
What’s the difference in a package delivery driver and a FT combination driver?
One gets paid more.

Will you be OK working, then sleeping, then working your life away? Just wondering.

About 10% of our trucks are manual (all 12 cubes assigned to routes). We don't have manual cut cars anymore.

It’s how I thrive. I’m used to my phone ringing from across the state all night long. The simple fact that when I get home I’m done would be a blessing

You’ll never be an RPCD. From what I’ve seen, you’ll probably quit or cry your first six months.
