The media is buying the myth of the 100k a year driver. They leave out all the overtime drivers put in all year long to earn that pay.

The problem is that making a 100 grand a year (single income) would qualify you to lower middle class standards, and in some areas close to their poverty levels.

Another myth is that UPS is contributing over 25,000 dollars a year into everyone's pension plans.

Company wont leak the dastardly things they do thats for sure.

Like on-call drivers on layoff most weeks or once economy slowed shuffling the sleeper network to where drivers can relocate to follow the work or stay starving with no work.

In RTW states, $100k/year would make you the riches family in town.

What's a on-call driver? Sounds scabish.

Uh no, its how the company fills in for vacation and other unknowns like driver call offs or extra loads. On call is just a pool of drivers with no set scheduled run. Mainly feeders.
We call vacation temps "casuals". Haven't seen any this year with the layoffs and such.
