I am an engineer, but I worked for UPS in my 20s and that was hard work. The US drivers are making more than engineers.
Don’t forget about the 60k in benefits / pensions
Wow the pay is much better than I expected it to be. It's nice to know drivers out there are being compensated well.
I made 130 k last year as a driver . Yes a lot of OT but the job treats me well
@@duhgreat8449 how many you worked hours a week? And how long you have been a driver? This salary is much better I think!
But not treated so great and the rest of the employees lol
@@rafaelsena9414 start 9am end at 7-9pm at night.. depending on how many stops and if you have a busy business route .
@@kenyonmorris2182sounds like a lot of family time being taken away.
After 25 years at UPS I can tell you we earn every penny.
Don't expect to come in and start driving. There is a seniority list in front of you.
Excellent vid brother. Gives me motivation to move up from loading the trucks preload
I'm a UPS driver this is 100% accurate, I'm about to hit year 3 in June so I'm finally gonna get a decent pay raise of 4.75, but I can't wait til top pay
Yessir!!!
Thank you for sharing, I respect anyone who works hard ❤
We don’t make, we EARN our pay.
Some do. Some don’t. This job isn’t as difficult as y’all think. Most of you have only had this 1 job. We have it REALLY good.
Depends on the route 🤷♂️
Soooo true
Oh wow excuse us 😂 lol

I drive Feeders for UPS "tractor trailers " currently at $42 my schedule is Sunday-Thurs . Sunday is time &half all day at $63 and I come in on Friday for another $63 all day groosed a little over 140k
What do you mean you drive feeders for ups tractor trailers? What does that mean?
@reecea.419 yes semi trucks it's called Feeders
@bradboisvert4892 so you just drive them locally or across country?

Seen you on TikTok live!! You said you were going to make a benefits video. Let me see it! Keep the optimistic energy. Stay happy and healthy! Love the videos!!
Absolutely I will try to video it this week!!! Thank you so much for the support!!!
@@Randywithups2 and get some rest. You said your easiest days are Monday. Big rest of your week!
Thanks so much for the info! I was thinking about becoming a UPS driver but was a little scared about the pay. You're awesome! 😊
No problem I hoped this video helped!! I’m gonna be making lots more content soon so please like and subscribe! Thank you 😊
Some UPS drivers making over 200K a year. Stick with it!!!!
@@rockon8174 can you please give more examples on this? 200k for certain states? I'm curious and hopeful I can bank that much.
In Germany ups drivers earn far more than the competition, and also the pay in sorting and so on is good. 3 drivers also made it into sales this year, I also got promoted from working in the export devison.
@@antonionalesnik4706some of rhe sleeper teams (over the road tractor trailer drivers will make that) package car drivers can get around 150k with a ton of overtime.
Very good video keep up the good work lookin swole thank you for all the information have a blessed night or day whenever you see this you are a special person from the heavens
I Appreciate you so much have a great day today!!! 🤎
Yep good video accurate to Iowa wage wise, one year left then I am gonna go I will be 60 yrs old. Driving is not easy and often times many times worse in the winter. Good luck. Keep er safe
this was a great video, very informative. keep up the great work sky's the limit
Yes for sure thank you for the support!!!
I’m in Texas I been in the warehouse 3half years signing my name on the list for full time position next month , this channel came just in time for my journey
LOVE THIS!! Thanks again brother your gonna do amazing you got this 💪🏻
Why didn’t you applied straight as a driver??? There’s openings available you don’t gotta do years in a warehouse
@@masterroshi3994what website?
@@masterroshi3994you do have to do years at the warehouse. There's people that were there longer than you that sign up to drive and they go first.
Southern as well. I see drivers on the street at 8PM, and they are 35-40 min from the hub. Forget about going anywhere for Thanksgiving, as the day after is a scheduled work day. Many other issues as well....
Yay! I'm the 460th subscriber. Love your personality man. It's highly contagious
You are amazing thank you for the support!!!!!
Thanks to the Teamsters to get that pay up. Not to mention the benefit package
Used to live in California . The local drivers were promoted from the night loading dock . They put in time before even making it to be a driver . They hustle all day . Stepping up and down from that truck is hard on your knees. Most people think a job is sitting in front of a computer screen . I feel they get paid fairly.
He's not kidding about the work/ family balance. You get paid very good but you dedicate your life to UPS. You lose a LOT of time with your loved ones. Time you can't get back
Exactly!!
In our building we have so many extra drivers because of the covid hiring we now have a sit list. Literally have drivers that work one day a week to keep benefits
That’s wild! So these guys are just on “lay off” all week? We’re a fairly small center but they’re always adding more and more volume that everyone drives from the RPCD to the 22.4 ,even the TCD drive daily.
What are the typical hours? If I could drop my kids off at school in the morning and start work by eight or nine, I’d be good if I’m able to finish by 3-4pm. That’s 30-40 hours a week
😂 that’s not how that works. Yea you start at 9 but no one gets off before 6pm
Started as a 22.4 in October. Been driving since then. Can’t wait till top rate whatever that may be in a few years time.
Your gonna love it!!!
I work as a plow driver for a small town. They pay double time to plow so we all drive around in circles 16 on 8 off 16 on. So I’m able to earn 64 hours in two days. It snows about 20 times but we go out 30 times or more. Everyone needs to make a living.
Good to know thanks for sharing ❤
❤️
That jump from 36 to 48 months is huge. Loving the videos man!
Yes it’s a huge jump!!!
That's not an easy job ! Glad to see that you are well compensated
Wow… that is really great! Not an easy job at all but wow, I might need to consider
Great video! Here in upstate New York if you are UPS feeder driver primarily working 60 hours a week you’ll make $145,000 this year.👍🏼 same applies for package..
What's a feeder?
An now UPS drivers top out at 49$ hr… with that 5hr and 10hr overtime, BIG 💰
Thanks for the video I see you going places your a smart handsome man also.
Amazon driver, but its so interesting seeing this from yall perspective !
I know it’s cool hearing from other delivery drivers from different companies!
It should hurt your feelings lol
probably need to update after all the news!
I just applied, hopefully I get the job
Easy to understand in video and thank you. So, I was wondering what about the work schedule? Have to work on the Weekend?
I’m a ups driver from the Bay Area. I’m about to hit top rate this September coming up can’t wait for it I’m currently making 28.75 and I work 6 days a week I take him about $1300 a week but when I top out I’m going to make about $1800 a week working 6 days a week with about 55 hours
Love it great job!!
Bay Area? You can hit 200K as a driver.
I worked for ups for 20 years. The pay is the highest in the industry. But they own you. You are their prisoner with golden handcuffs. I was miserable. My wife was going to leave me because I was always in a pissy mood after work. Saved my money and left, best decision I ever made.
You left your wife or left UPS?
@@ericcarson342Both. Now he's EXTREMELY HAPPY!
Did you hear of feeders?
Your pay scale really matters where you are. It’s gonna be different in every state. I’m a pkg delivery driver in ca and we top out at 42.33. But it’s California sooo haha.
I still want to finish the college degree I'm working on now, but I'm seriously considering working my way up in UPS to become a driver. These benefits, thanks to the unions, sound very nice. I'm more than willing to work my way up the pay scale.
Just working part time is great just so u can get benefits.i worked part time n went to college then decided to move up to full n finished college
@@andrecorrea2169what major did you earn?
Had a coworker spend a better part of a decade getting a degree. He ended up deciding to become a driver after spend a year on the job market. He passed up a major slot in seniority. We are talking close to twenty slots. Which would’ve translated to having a great route. Point is, unless you got a locked in 150 to 200k job wait for you. Never pass up on the seniority. When you 45, 55, you will thank yourself for it. Best of luck.
@@Ibroketherubber a bachelors in graphic design
@chasemesa6519 lol not near 200k. 150 at the end of the new contract is realistic
San Jose city, my first year is 72k at 25 dollars per hour. Second year plus 1 dollar per every hour and 25 days vacation pay. If you choose to cash out, you will get a little more than 4k. Second year should be around 80k. Third year 89k and 5 years will be at least 135k.
That’s really nice!!!!
Hi , thanks for videos , how many stops usually you have per day ?
These numbers are also from the contact in 2018 before the pandemic. Since the company grew so much over the last 5 years I'm betting that the new contract will have a significant rate increase.
You would think that huh. I’ve been with the company for 24 years and every contract they want us to take concessions.
41.51 is a significance rate increase. I would rather have more option time vacation time and more protection from working 9.5 over more pay in my opinion, guys pushing more pay are ones generally who don’t budget well!!
Yep
It seems to me, from what you said, that if one wants a good job, and good pay (as a long-time worker), [ while sacrificing family time ], then you say UPS is the right company.
Randy, thank you for sharing this breakdown of wages too. Under that pay scale you shared (1st year as an RCPD ) $43,000 is not much at ALL in today's world. Having Health Insurance IS an added benefit! Also, working 10 hours overtime brings your salary up to around $60,000, but that's BEFORE taxes. I wonder... is overtime asked, emphasized, or expected by managers? (maybe a single person that has time on their hands might agree to overtime opportunities/money). So, is that wage enough for some? Yes, but what if one has a family? Is that wage, along with spending time away from their families that love them, a good trade? On a personal level, No.
After over 4 years for you, being a full-time worker, the average 40 hour a week paycheck for a year is over $86,000 AND you have health insurance! With overtime, it's much more. That sounds great for even me ! What I'm seeing is that new, reliable, hard working, full-time RCPD workers don't have a great wage, but have a great financial benefit coming to them in ONLY a quick few years, working FULL-TIME !
Knowing this, generally, what is the average time it will take for someone that is a part-time worker with UPS to get a Full-time hourly job with UPS? Can a worker who's full-time or part-time deny overtime opportunities without justified fear of retribution? Today, does UPS hire people full-time, or do they first have to agree to be part-time workers with them? ( I'm not talking about management salaried people).
Maybe you answered these questions in previous videos. I'm new to your channel. Do you respond to comments? I will look at your previous posts as well. Thanks.
Absolutely love this comment and I look forward to answering all these questions!!
@@Randywithups2 Please do, my friend.
@@Randywithups2answer em gang
stay union strong!!
The teamster drivers at ups deserve all that & more
Here in az just got a job at amazon starting out at 26 an hour. And I get to drive the work van home after work. It's an electric new work van if you can provide changing to the van at your house you can drive it home
That’s awesome!!!!!
$26/hr doing what?
Despite my other comments, I respect these workers
Started in 91. Was young and addicted to saving and investing. In 97 the company offered us the option to invest in UPS stock. The IPO came around in late 99. The check came from the Cayman Islands. It cleared and I left the company. No regrets. You are owned as a full timer. OWNED! What happens to most of them is they get married, have puppies and buy the McMansion. I have stayed in contact with some of my coworkers from back in the day. If your going this rte, no pun intended. Do your time. Invest that cash. Live like a college kid, your never going to be home and when you hit a financial place bail the company and enjoy the rest of your life. Life is very short.
Yep
Do you get weekly paycheck or biweekly?
Just started in NYC the pay was $23/ hr for starters
In the Holiday Season of 1983 , right after graduating from High School , I got a UPS job as a Christmas time driver's helper and made $8 per hr ...which was triple the min wage and worked 10-12 hr days. I met the Driver at the local Mall parking lot and worked appx 6-7 weeks. I was invited to work in the warehouse in 1984 loading trucks at night... and unloading trailer trucks part time on the night shift. In the summer of 84 I lost a bunch of weight .. sweating my butt off , LOL. I never made the union .
How you not make union?
@@rockon8174 back at that time , it was difficult to make the union .. they fired people before they could make union. They told me during the last week .. that I was too slow unloading trucks. It was the end of June and I was sweating alot and couldn't go as fast they wanted. They would only give people 4 hrs a night anyway. Everything was different back then unlike today where there are so many jobs open.
@@rockon8174back then there was one position open and 15 applicants. I was a high school student and all conference football player, but they said I wasn't fast enough and one guy beat me out of the job after Christmas... But he was one day shy of making the union, same as me, and thought he had made it and decided to slow down.... They called me in after letting him go. I'm now close to 60c and when I work inside for extra OT I can usually outpace the new generation, it's not like it used to be.
Same here... Trying to play the new Van Halen tape in the boom box irritated the boss but was worth all the batteries it ate up because they wouldn't let you plug it in to the electric.... Now UPS supplies the monstrous stereos for the guys and I'm the one being offended by the foul language.
Fairly easy to make as long as you’re willing to do more OT per day or the OT they give you.
Hey Randy, what's the best way to get a job at UPS? Did you go through the website or job agency?
go to the website and if your in a small town go to a big city you might advance faster
where can I apply for being an RPC?
Hey could you do another video on some information and pay on the 22.4 driver's? Also what your timeline was like to become a regular driver with your own route? Thanks so much for the help!
Yes absolutely I will for sure be making some videos over all this stuff!! Thank you so much for the great questions look forward to making great content!
Can you always pull like 50 to 60 hours a week?
Wish I could try this type of work, have a injured back unfortunately.
I work at the warehouse in tampa. Man they run us through the wringer lol but the benefits are worth it
My husband wants to relocate to Tampa, we are in New Jersey now. Don’t know if it is worth the risk. Could you tell me how long the list is there to be a driver?
Have other women noticed how handsome UPS drivers are? (Oh this is your personal channel. I thought it was a random video, haha. I was asking the comment section). Be safe out there!!
im thinking about getting a side gig as a package handler and then drive eventually.
"Thinking about it"??
Do yall get paid more after the strike?
I’m a UPS driver in UK, and I make a ton of money! Yes I do overtime but I clear £3500 a month 😀
Love it!
Can someone get in more detail what's a RPCD is?Is it the exact same job but with more years?
Awesome videos, just subscribed yesterday lol. One question: Will you or can you get in trouble for making these videos?
Thank you very much!! No I recorded this all on my break and other videos I code out break according to my lunch break and follow ups safety methods!
How much u make an hr as a ups courier driver in Toronto.
Youre in great shape. Do you go to the gym. And how do you find time?
I been working with UPS since 1994
Damm good mullet
I’m an Amazon step van or package car driver as you guys call it for almost 2 years now. Do you guys get (FDI) Full day incentive if you finish early?
Some centers have what we call bonus and it may be comparable to that.
Now a UPS and FedEx driver can afford a Business Class ticket. And you only need a high school diploma. A major airline baggage handler could save up for a business class ticket. So many professions pay below minimum wage especially after paying student loans.
I seen a job posting in my area for freight pick up and delivery its a cdl class A position. I was wondering if thats a union position and if the pay rate is same or less? Anything helps thanks
Sign up now! All union every driver is union
@@AlexMartinez-oq8xu oh nice!! Thanks for the help!!
I’ve got to call out tomorrow because of back injuries (I’ve built houses from 18-28 years old and never had any real problems) I’ve been in preload from 28-31 and I’ve never felt more pain in my life lol especially after having kids too lol but I’d rather be on a roof in July then in that brown hole loading these trucks yes we do earn it
UPS workers BUST their butts, so all of us get our stuff. Support drivers and leave coolers filled with water bottles and snacks for them each day… if you can that is.
Damnnn , ya’ll get paid way more than us at USPS 😢 I always wanted to be a Ups Driver 😅 but never had my luck yet to find an open position 😢
Thank you!! Just check ups-jobs everyday eventually something will come up!!!
@@Randywithups2 i sure will . Thanks for posting the videos 😁
@@enanamir6000 no problem thanks for the support!
Lol I’m saying. I’m like shoot, did I pick wrong.
Same here been a carrier with Usps for 17 years and only making $36.96 an hour. I feel cheated 😢
I just turned 20 thinking about applying. Between this or the military. Not enjoying school.
as a Vet do the military 1st and do 2 to 4 years so you have benefits with tje military . then come apply at ups don't come here and think your gonna be making over 100k your 1st year not gonna happen . you wanna start from the bottom and work your way up
@@sychavez7269 yup I’m getting my CDL since the trade program im at just got suspended. I’ve transferred my credits so I can finish my associates online starting next year. I reached out to a high school friend who works at the local Kurig/DrPepper plant in management now and basically got offered a driving job there upon completion of my CDL. With OT I could potentially earn 90K. Pretty good money at my age. Gonna go that route and once I’m done with my degree look upon doing some time in the army.
hey man great video, thanks for the info. I have a question though. Say I work as a UPS driver for four years in the state I currently live in and I decide to move to another state, can the raise be transferred as well if I’m still a UPS driver in the state I decide to move to?
I think you keep your pay rate but lose all seniority at the new location!! I’m not 100 percent sure but believe that’s it!
Depends on your supplement. Most areas you can't transfer, or you have to be "re-hired" except for the areas covered under the Western-Supplement. However as a part-timer you can transfer if you are pursuing a education.
I called the hall directly about this exactly and they told me I’d have to leave my current union and be re-hired at a different union; which, unfortunately, means you could not get hired and lose it completely. I would say have a backup plan setup first and then keep trying to get hired to become a drive again. All-in-all, risky business.
Local 688 feeder driver 💪🏾
For people who don’t believe a union works in your best interest as a worker look no further then fed ex compared to ups. They do the exact same job but one is union one is not. I guarantee you the one with union is happier
That intro made me think of the backrooms UPS edition.
Lol
As a fellow ups driver I hope you clocked out for break time Don't want to be accused of stealing time 😉
Hey Randy so would you say the money is good working as a driver for UPS? Also, is it biweekly or what? Thanks.
You get paid every Friday. Not for the week you “just worked” but the previous week.
Did you watch the video? Do you think the money is good??
How long did you have to lump packages before driving?
I went straight into driving!
I’m a 22.4 our pay is way less then that it kinda suck that we do the same work and not get paid the same 😢
Its way less at top pay. The first three years its like 1 dollar off.
Ask for extra hours 😂😂😂😂 I’m forced to work those hours!!!!!
🤣🤣
i went temp/seasonal first to start at 27.14 now i’m 22.4
Nice!!
just imagine what the semi truck driver make!!
How much can I make at ups im Arkansas and how can I make more every year
Read lots of comments but not one in regards to a package car driver making about
150+ Deliveries and pick ups every day.
Also 2
Bro did you just apply online or did you go to UPS in person and apply like how was the training and what not love the content man
I applied online!! I will definitely do a video of reviewing all those questions! I greatly appreciate that hope I can make some good content that helps inform you well!! Definitely will do one over all that!
@@Randywithups2 Yoo what a legend you are responding I'm 15 trying to figure out what real world job i want to pursue that doesn't require collage.That pays good.So this is a very tempting idea when I'm old enough . I'm trying the common online ways to make $$$ but i realize i need a real job to support a family.Thanks for replying bro
@@TLEAGLE765 anytime bro!!!
Once you get 17 bro you can work in the warehouse as a package handler. Nice partime, 22 an hr and like 4 hours everyday
you need to apply and work part time in the hub a few years before getting a shot at at becoming a driver. that's in a big hub, but if you are in a small town, we'll good luck driving ever lol
Rpcd is a. 22.3.
do you needa work in warehouse before transferring to a driver?
most do, it all depends on the hub.
Ready to go on strike in August
You asking him or saying you’re ready?
Ain't no one going on strike. Some drivers pull in 200K a year.
@@rockon8174 never heard of any driver making that much.
@@aaronrodriguez1410 Lol Feeders out of Chicago were pulling in 250k
@Stabones maybe in high cost of living areas because man 200k for driving? Good for them. That's center manager money lol
Have you ever pick up from stockx or goat
Nope!!
Seems good but you don't have time to enjoy it. Maybe if you get to retirement, but other wise that's rough. I drove railroad crews in between terminals and did that up to 60 hours a week just for 2 or 3 weeks and I thought it was going to kill me. Of course that was a 24 hour a day on call job. Maybe that contributed to wearing me down.
True true
I drove for FedEx Ground and once you get injured you are screwed particularly once you get older. You will not be working 60 hours a week for UPS when you are over 50. It is a physically demanding job that wears you down and eventually breaks you.
They don't pay ENOUGH for that. I was working on a new delivery system and they don't care if it makes it easier for drivers.
True, the divorce rate among ups drivers is high, so they say.
Just be careful out there guys.....if you crashing your own car with multiple wrecks in a year. Best not get behind a ups truck. Im just saying. One wreck and your done. They dont play thats stuff.
can you say about tattoo policy?
Yes I can do a video over that!!
I’m top rate driver and that’s true.
Big money 💰💰💰💰💰
That’s right 💰💸
@@Randywithups2 what time do you start ?
Baggage handlers for airlines making $40/hr soon. My airline in contract talks now with our union.
I hope the new contract changes that
Is this before or after taxes?
Before taxes
Is it easy to get a job as a driver?
nope you better of starting in the warehouse 1st and work your way up.
