UPS or FedEx?

[TheWholePackage97]

It took me 3.5 years (can't count the peak before I was officially hired) to hit full time here where I'm at. If you come into work, bust ass and keep asking to help every night for the whole peak season (and do reasonably well), they just might keep you on as a driver. If you have a brain, are there to work and get it done... you may get to stay on as a preloader or whatever. Just need to find other means of an income as well so you can drive eventually.

Thanks so much for this. I work at Domino’s to fill the time I’m not working at the post office. I’m going to bust ass. I’m going to give it 130% and even if it means that I come home sore as all hell every night, I know it’ll be worth it in the long run

One of the guys who I loaded for used to do Dominos. Another guy did lawns. One guy did pressure washing. Just find what works for you to make ends meet and give it hell.

I’m not a driver *yet I’m not here to pick fights but I won’t back down when someone who was once just as nervous as I am try to tell me what I can and can’t do. Again, have a blessed one bud

 

[Turdferguson]

I didn’t think about it that way. How old were you when you transitioned into a driver?

29

I worked preload for 5 years , also did driver helper every Christmas. I wasn’t nervous because of experience ...if you want to jump into driving you will be overwhelmed and quit....

I’m on the east coast. Delaware specifically

Ask around strike up a conversation with a local driver. As a rule the bigger the city the shorter the wait to be a driver. If you do get the chance. Work smart not hard. You have one body take care of it. If you have a good attitude, willing work ethic, and are honest you will be fine

Thanks so much! Really appreciate it.

No problem. I usually not this nice, but am heavily medicated right now

12 years on preload, full time job during the day, no life

Get ready for the grind. UPS are smart, they backload contracts and for good reason. UPS ain’t worth getting out of bed for until they start paying drivers a higher starting salary IMO but that’s just me.

The BS just ain’t worth putting up with unless you’re sitting maxed out with benefits.

When you mention FedEx are you talking about Express or Ground? They are basically two different companies operating under the same name.

You make better wages and benefits at UPS. But the work load is to the point you'll never see your family. It's good if your single and like to be outside. But stay away from UPS if family time is important.
