[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 769555, member: 12508"] I've worked for UPS before as a seasonal worker, and it's pretty apparent that the standards are lower. The $16.12 figure is just about what I was getting as a seasonal Feeder Driver more than a few years ago, so UPS knows that they don't have to pay as much in a slow economy. My real point is that UPS pays temporary workers (who aren't as qualified as permanent employees), 2 to 3 dollars [B]more [/B]than experienced FedEx people, at both Ground and Express. I find that both ironic and unsettling. And yes, I'd say most of the seasonal drivers I see fumbling around out there in rentals during peak are marginally qualified. You might get some unlikely workers, as Upstate pointed-out, but even if they're a genius at whatever their regular gig is, it doesn't mean they'll be an effective delivery driver. [/QUOTE]
