Took me one year. I was an unloader and now a full time ups driver. Hard work and some long days but the pay and benefits are truly insane and it can get better with new union contracts.
@@Hollywoodintx It's something that you have to love doing because after 10 plus years your body will probably be in pain. I used to be a supervisor and I have seen some drivers that where doing it for 20 plus years that couldn't walk straight.
This week I hit 9 months as an unloader on the early AM shift. My name goes on the transfer list to become a driver on Tuesday. From there it should only be 1-3 months until I transfer up to drive. It took me about 2 full months to get physically used to unloading, and now that I’m efficient at it I actually love it. I would never unload for more than 2 years. It’s too physically demanding for so little pay, but the health insurance benefits are amazing
I am a 30 year UPS employee. I’ve been a driver for 23 years. I was hired in 1993 part-time making $8/hr. It took 7 years for me to get a driving position. We are Teamsters at UPS so moving up is always based on seniority. Back then it took a long time to move up high enough to get a drivers job. After the strike in 1997 UPS had to create full-time jobs and then the list to become a driver started to move a lot faster. UPS is a very demanding company to work for, both physically and mentally but it is well worth it. Currently our top rate is $41.54/hr and that goes up every August 1st. We pay nothing for our healthcare and have a really good pension. You’ll hear UPS drivers complain a lot but in the end UPS has given me a great life and I consider myself very fortunate to have spent the last 30 years wearing brown.
I started in 2015. I went driving within 9 months and im now topped out at $42. Its hard work no doubt but the pay and amazing benefits make everything worth it. Ive had many jobs in my life and you will always have bad management or co workers wherever you go. But if you just show up and do your part and don't engage in anyone else's business it makes it all manageable.
UPS does hire people off the street to become drivers. I started as a package handler and worked that for about 5 months and after that I became a driver. Started my 30 day probation right in the first week of peak so it was tough and I got lucky because some drivers had to wait a year to start driving. Here in CA top pay is 40 and at first it was tough the cradle on my training package car didn’t work so I had no gps. I had to learn the streets on my own but it’s a great career to get into. I’m considered a part time 22.4 driver but work full time hours I probably won’t be a full time driver until the veteran drivers retire but there’s couple more drivers ahead of me
Man that’s awesome! Your right there!! Sometimes I regret leaving ups when I was 18 I just wasn’t thinking of it as a career and I was in college at the time so unfortunately I quit ……big L for me lol
I think every 4 or 5th person that moves from package handler to driver they will hire one person off the street to drive we’ve got a few that has never worked as a package handler
@@JeffRogers99 you can always run the route on your days off thats what I did. Also in my center we print out maps of and has were all of our stops are at. Not that hard
Based on the stories I hear, there are definitely different experiences at UPS. My personal experience seems to be going good so far knock on wood, but the wrong supervisor or wrong crew can be a super drag man.

34 years in, retired this peak! Love Christmas (from start to finish) for 1st time in a long time! But loved my job , my customers, and now my retirement package!!!
Go back to ups, u seem like an awesome guy, Christmas time is best time to get in where ups hires off the street drivers and you can get yourself in with management. This is where you can truly show your motivation for the job. Pleasant attitude under pressure, studying the 1 area and knowing it well that they keep you in during Christmas, and calling center immediately on route when done willing to help fellow drivers finish up. I made $127k this year, pay nothing for medical, dental, glasses, and hearing coverage for me and my immediate family Driver for 29 years with company 36yrs. I’ve trained over 150 drivers in Illinois, go back to ups, do not give up, ups needs you

i work at canada post and drive my own vehicle and own my route, get paid salary so if i finish my route in 4 hrs i get paid the same if it took me 10 hrs but peak season and if you're new to a route are the only times you'll work more than 7 hrs
I started ups outa high school, its the longest 3 month job ive ever had, goin on 28 years now. In a couple years i get a great pension, and retire on my 50th birthday. Hard work, long hours, but if ya gotta make a living, make a good one. I wouldnt do this job for anything less. I earn every last dollar.
When I applied I went In as a driver, never had to be a handler, I denied their offer in the end, too military for my liking. I work fedex express now.
It took me 2 years from package Handler to cover driver and one more year from cover driver to full time driver in ups, it is a long wait but still good I started 33/hr and my top pay in 4 years will be 41 or 42 dollars and hour 👍👍also benefits are great. Ups is a great company because the union
I started as combination driver in August of 2021. Then right before summer I got promoted to full time and the pats amazing. Two more years till I reach top pay. Out of the DC building in Landover
I came in off the street for UPS. I’m just south of Chicago. I was lucky. I came in as a combo driver but and am regular package car driver now. We work our asses off so we all deserve to be paid well. Be safe out there 🤙🏼
Hired as a seasonal driver in 2016, got called back for a full time RCPD in 2017, topped out last year. Now have great pay, pension, and health insurance for me and my family that doesn’t cost any thing out of my check
Yeah in 2020 ups was hiring for summer help drivers, sounded like a nightmare to get a full time driver position. I had just applied again and it sounds like they are hiring drivers right off the bat. Which is insane!
Started as a seasonal driver with no guarantee they even said they haven’t kept a seasonal the last 2 years I worked my ass of and impressed well enough about 2 weeks after seasonal ended got a call from the building offering me a permanent driver position and never did a day in the warehouse.
I recently had the opportunity to be a driver but I couldn't take the heat. My nerves were absolutely shot and had a mental breakdown on one of the last days of their driver training program. I was big time panicking and self-disqualified myself and have to wait two years if I want to try again. I still have my inside part-time job there but I don't know if I want to try that again. The money and benefits are great but you gotta have nerves of steel to withstand the pressure and expectations they put on you.
Sorry to hear that! I Heard it’s like Boot Camp at the training place. I only worked there less than a year and the supervisor I had at the time was just not friendly to me. ultimately made the decision to leave.
Im in michigan. I was hired off the street last month as a seasonal driver for ups. They said if i do well they'll hire me full-time at the end of the seasonal peroid.
I worked as a seasonal helper last peak season (last month) with UPS, now i see a warehouse position available, and i try to apply, so after doing background check with my address i can't move forward with my application, idk what i did wrong, any suggestions?
I watch your videos to see what my life could have been… I wanted to something active for a job and made a list of potential careers. Delivery driver was on that list. I chose tree trimmer instead. Five years later I’m billing at $100 an hour as a self-employed tree trimmer. If I chose delivery driver, I would have been unable to start my own business with a solid skill. It would have been so awful
😂 nobodies paying $100 an hour for tree trimming when I can pay Miguel from the home depot parking lot $50 to do it. Clown. And enjoy covering your own health and dental cost for you and your family. You forgot to factor in the free healthcare.
Bro he speaking facts I been through the same thing you can still get money working at fedex and benefit Just work hard like any other job . FedEx would definitely help you out ups is a hit or miss becoming a driver
Its for every 6 union employees 1 employee can be hired off the streets..we have several from the street but they have no seniority a few drove before me but i got flipped to 300 before them..our top pay is literally life changing..also i constantly see fed ex guys running for their life on my route..ive been to prison..mom died..and homeless..UPS CHANGED MY LIFE!!
@@luigui707 a person that works in the building is a union employee person who does not work for the company at all applying for a driver position is applying from the streets so this is just an example a union employee will take maybe 2 years to be a driver where a person who applied from the streets will probably take five to six years because they only go to one of those applications after every six Union employees are offered the position
@@madnessblood92ifg ok so like for myself I want to be a package car driver. I also want to be part of the union. Would I apply at UPS or apply at the union? Or both?
@@madnessblood92ifg ok I'm really considering trying to join. I hear it is a long process to get hired. That you even get flown out to Chicago for a week for a training. But even at that point the job is not guaranteed. According to some RUclips video
Great story man, you got it going good for yourself. I’m a UPS driver in Fresno Ca, been employed for 23 years. It took me 5 years to be pulled up into driving. We have a union and everything’s based on seniority. They do allow 1 out of every 5 drivers to be pulled in from the street, but it’s rare. UPS and Fed Ex still the big boys on the block
Yup!!! kinda cool how they can pull 1 person from the streets. I heard before here at express it was kinda the same but ever since COVID, they hire anybody lmao 🤣
I was a package handler for a year , I had to leave due to some financial struggles, I was gone a month . Now I re applied for seasonal driver with chance for driving position. Now the thing about the union is if you reach out to them they will bat for you , I thought I was screwed with my seniority but if they keep me fingers crossed 🤞 I get my seniority back .
Congrats on your 23 years. I’ve been with UPS for 30 years, 23 as a driver in Philly. Getting ready to retire this summer. Still not sure if want to though. Im so used to running around all day in that truck that I don’t think I’d know what to do with myself not being in that truck all day
been working as a unloader for 3 weeks, and i honestly think i would try to make it a career here in california being that im 28 years old with no type of other careers going for me. It is very hard work, but it is doable if you want to do it. Im moving to kansas in about 6 months which is why i dont see myself pursuing this career.
@@matthewp9740 its very chill place as far as the supervisors/trainers n shit go, they are all kind and respectful and not ass holes but i think they are like that because they know how hard the job is, so they dont want to give anybody another reason to quit lol...
In Oregon is $18.50 preLoad Driving Start $20.50 - $43 I did Preload for 11 months Now driving for 5 months later, Our center Had 6 new drivers last year including my self, but it all depends on the needs of the Hud.
We had a guy get hired on as a driver but it screws him cuz his in house senoity date and full time date are the same so he cant bump in house. I'm a part time air driver and gunna stay as one cuz shit 37.50 / hr for just driving to each out our towns to pick up boxes and come back to take to the airport is ez money round 50k a year give or take so not a lot but for the cost of living here its plenty
I got hired off the street during the pandemic, usually they hire drivers from within but I guess they needed drivers, I'm about to hit 2 years and this company has been ok to me, the insurance is supposedly one of the best but I haven't really used it so idk but the pay is great, the hours suck if you aren't a hard worker, i normally work from 9am-7:45 with one 1 hour unpaid lunch, sometimes they force you to work 6 days but it's based on seniority so they force from the bottom up .... one good thing is that if they work you over 9.5 hours for more than 3 days in a week you can file a grievance because of that and you get payed overtime rate for every hour you work over the 9.5 hours.... so basically triple pay..... starting driver pay is 21, 1 year 23, 2 years 24, 3 years 28.75, 4 years is top pay at 40.50
@@matthewp9740 in my opinion it's the hours, sometimes they force you in to work 6 days a week, we don't work Sundays to that's the only guaranteed day off but as you gain more seniority over the years theu won't force you anymore, that's pretty much it in my opinion, if you can survive to first couple years then you will have a great job cause this job is all based on seniority, the drivers that been here the longest don't get forced in on their days off, they have first dibs on the routs they want, and are first in line to pick vacation times.... but as I said you can get on the "9.5 list" so if they try to fuck you over and overwork you yih can file grievances and get payed "triple time" for very hour that you worked over 9.5 hours, but you have to work over 9.5 hours for 3 days or more in a week so it's basically free money
@@matthewp9740 also you will never work over 60 hours in a week cause of some rule they have so that's good but I'm lazy and I like to be at home so it pisses me off when they force me in to work Saturdays but on average I work about 48-50 hours a week, and when I work the 6th day is goes to around 58-60 but you cant pass 60 because of dot rules
@@matthewp9740 also it depends on the routes too bro I'm sure you know some routes are a bitch and others are stress free and you just listen to podcast or music all day I'm sure you know how it is but like I said once you gain a good amount of seniority you will be able to have first dibs on the routes that you want
@@ericzz93 yeah right now at express my route is pretty easy! I only do pickups and work about 6 to 7 hours on road. What kills me sometimes is they make us do package handler work when we return, which can be sometimes a lot. Unloading trucks scanning packages etc….

I always had a feeling the "boys in brown" made guap. It used to be extremely difficult to get a delivery job with them. I heard it's getting easier now.
U were 18 and u have to be 21 to be a driver. Just like me when I started preload package handling. In the 3 years it took me to be 21 I had the seniority to be called for driving school. You just missed out dog
Jus got offered a seasonal position as a package delivery driver also I have my class A they told me if I perform well the chances are they will hire me on after peak season (small delay after) but I’m not sure if I’m willing to leave my permanent position at Xpo hoping to get hire for ups
Same thing with me bro I'm a little older but I worked at ups in 05 when I was young and left on bad terns after a year. Fast forward in my life I've had my class a for 5 years now I work also for a fedex ground contractor for extra money but get your class a bro u can. Make money still in deliver here in Denver most class a jobs pay 70k min I know Sysco drivers making over 100k alot more opportunities with a class a
@@matthewp9740 right now is the best time to get your foot in the door with a class a companies are paying sign on bonuses to get drivers.. when I wanted to leave leave warehouse jobs for a delivery job 5 years ago the job market was different every company wanted you to have 2 years of drving experience.. I was really frustrated with that
Ups is all about seniority especially in the warehouse and when it’s peak season all the managers and supervisors are assholes for no reason if your applying for ups don’t apply during the holidays apply in the beginning of the year
Now of the last few years it takes about 2 years being a package handler to become a package car driver, which isn't bad because it use to take up to 10 years
I’m a ups driver for Menlo Park ca I first work for ups as a driver in 2015 I quit and then came back in 2018 I was able to come back as a driver been there every since you just have to talk to the right people and they will help you get back in or change your email because the ups system recognized your email and automatically denied you just change it and you be fine
Yeah just used a different email that’s what my HR told me when I was trying to apply back I was having the same problem the system was denied me to until I spoke to the HR department and they told me to used a different email because the system recognizes old emails
I’m just saying what my supervisor told.I work at ups as a driver back in 2015 I quit and then I when back to you UPS in 2017 and I’m still there I’m making 40 bucks an hours
UPS is my first and only job. Started working part time in 08. In 2018 I got hired as a feeder driver straight from package handling. Just reached scale pay around Christmas and life is just comfortable. 💯
UPS has a union, they are protected. Funny im watching this, when earlier during my route, I bullshited with a UPS driver and asked him the pros of the job
It’s crazy how FedEx Express isn’t even trying to compete with UPS as far as pay. You would think they would at least a little competitive pay wise. They would probably retain more drivers. I believe UPS drivers are union. They are here in CT. That could be the difference
I applied as a driver with ups recently and they are hiring on the spot. Its in the Seattle area and this ups hub starting pay is 28 dollars. Other hubs are 24 dollars starting in the area. I can't pass up 28 dollars an hour full time.
Every 6 drivers that are hired at UPS they have to hire 1 off the street. From what I have seen almost every off the street hire is just a supervisor that quits and they hire him/her for the position. It gives them someone who is fairly familiar with the position that they can trust moving forward. I also see it as a way they can spy on the driving force by placing in a former supervisor in within them.
Hired as a driver right after I submitted my application online as a DRIVER!! No previous package delivery experience. 2022 this is not factual. This probably varies state to state.
I started as a Preloader for 5 years at UPS before I became a Package Car Driver. I worked another full time job after I was done with my Preload shift.
@@matthewp9740 Been there for 21 years and going to 22 in August. Much better being at UPS because of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters union. When I started part time as a Preloader, we were entitled to full benefits and pension.

As an UPS driver you have more restrictions as in drivers hours etc. As UPS we take more pride in our customers and we take care in our everyday deliveries, as we are paid more than any other delivery company, yes its very hard work.
@@zillamill I currently drive for fed ex ground where they under pay the hell out of us and we bust our ass without any type of insurance so if we get hurt while busting our ass you are on your own.

I got hired by ups just the last couple weeks as a driver went in took the drive test 2 days later I did the dot card now I'm starting school on the 22nd of this month then I start driving and I'm being hired on at 34.75 an hour to start

I started out as a seasonal helper in 2013. I got hire as a PH in 2014. I went Driving 2016. It is hard work. You see us out there 9pm-10pm. Good days at 7pm.

Pension almost 52,000 a year
I made a good choice
Go back to ups, u seem like an awesome guy, Christmas time is best time to get in where ups hires off the street drivers and you can get yourself in with management. This is where you can truly show your motivation for the job. Pleasant attitude under pressure, studying the 1 area and knowing it well that they keep you in during Christmas, and calling center immediately on route when done willing to help fellow drivers finish up.
I made $127k this year, pay nothing for medical, dental, glasses, and hearing coverage for me and my immediate family
Driver for 29 years with company 36yrs.
I’ve trained over 150 drivers in Illinois, go back to ups, do not give up, ups needs you
I'm about to become tcd and they told me to study the 5s and 10s I'm a little nervous I can't really memorize this is that on a test I'm hoping to do good any advice I'm going to driver class on Wednesday

i work at canada post and drive my own vehicle and own my route, get paid salary so if i finish my route in 4 hrs i get paid the same if it took me 10 hrs but peak season and if you're new to a route are the only times you'll work more than 7 hrs
I started ups outa high school, its the longest 3 month job ive ever had, goin on 28 years now. In a couple years i get a great pension, and retire on my 50th birthday. Hard work, long hours, but if ya gotta make a living, make a good one. I wouldnt do this job for anything less. I earn every last dollar.
When I applied I went In as a driver, never had to be a handler, I denied their offer in the end, too military for my liking. I work fedex express now.
You still at express?
It took me 2 years from package Handler to cover driver and one more year from cover driver to full time driver in ups, it is a long wait but still good I started 33/hr and my top pay in 4 years will be 41 or 42 dollars and hour 👍👍also benefits are great. Ups is a great company because the union
I started as combination driver in August of 2021. Then right before summer I got promoted to full time and the pats amazing. Two more years till I reach top pay. Out of the DC building in Landover
2 years in the warehouse rn, started when I was 18. Shit sucks ass atm but I know I’ll thank myself 10 years from now🙏🏽🙏🏽
I feel you Dawg...
I work at UPS been there over a year
I dig it..
Nice man making that big money!!!
We all know you love UPS LOL
I came in off the street for UPS. I’m just south of Chicago. I was lucky. I came in as a combo driver but and am regular package car driver now. We work our asses off so we all deserve to be paid well. Be safe out there 🤙🏼
Nice how long have you been with ups??
Bro you doing numbers now let’s gooo!!!
Yeah man thanks ima keep this ball rolling!!!
Hired as a seasonal driver in 2016, got called back for a full time RCPD in 2017, topped out last year. Now have great pay, pension, and health insurance for me and my family that doesn’t cost any thing out of my check
You take the dot physical? For seasonal casual packing delivery driver?
Cool videos bro. Always wondered what ups was like
Been with ups for 2.5 years and I love it great pay can’t complain a lot of work but it’s definitely worth it. Gonna stay at ups till I retire
Bro I feel you I’m from jersey that. Back when they were only paying 11 dollars a hour hell no
Yeah in 2020 ups was hiring for summer help drivers, sounded like a nightmare to get a full time driver position. I had just applied again and it sounds like they are hiring drivers right off the bat. Which is insane!
Started as a seasonal driver with no guarantee they even said they haven’t kept a seasonal the last 2 years I worked my ass of and impressed well enough about 2 weeks after seasonal ended got a call from the building offering me a permanent driver position and never did a day in the warehouse.
Nice!!! How are you liking it so far??
*Hub not warehouse
I recently had the opportunity to be a driver but I couldn't take the heat. My nerves were absolutely shot and had a mental breakdown on one of the last days of their driver training program. I was big time panicking and self-disqualified myself and have to wait two years if I want to try again. I still have my inside part-time job there but I don't know if I want to try that again. The money and benefits are great but you gotta have nerves of steel to withstand the pressure and expectations they put on you.
Sorry to hear that! I Heard it’s like Boot Camp at the training place. I only worked there less than a year and the supervisor I had at the time was just not friendly to me. ultimately made the decision to leave.

Im in michigan. I was hired off the street last month as a seasonal driver for ups. They said if i do well they'll hire me full-time at the end of the seasonal peroid.
all good if you wouldn’t like to disclose, but how much do you make per week after tax? just got hired, still unsure about the pay.
I worked as a seasonal helper last peak season (last month) with UPS, now i see a warehouse position available, and i try to apply, so after doing background check with my address i can't move forward with my application, idk what i did wrong, any suggestions?
I watch your videos to see what my life could have been…
I wanted to something active for a job and made a list of potential careers. Delivery driver was on that list. I chose tree trimmer instead. Five years later I’m billing at $100 an hour as a self-employed tree trimmer. If I chose delivery driver, I would have been unable to start my own business with a solid skill. It would have been so awful
That’s good I’m happy for you and I hope to be in a position like that soon! I got some things I’m working on in the background
😂 nobodies paying $100 an hour for tree trimming when I can pay Miguel from the home depot parking lot $50 to do it. Clown. And enjoy covering your own health and dental cost for you and your family. You forgot to factor in the free healthcare.
How is it working for fed ex ? I’m actually thinking of leaving my job right now and work for fed ex ? How’s the pay and is there over time ?
What occurs during the Dot for just seasonal driving
Bro he speaking facts I been through the same thing you can still get money working at fedex and benefit Just work hard like any other job . FedEx would definitely help you out ups is a hit or miss becoming a driver
Started back in 2015 as a package handler took me a year to become a UPS Driver
I’m a UPS driver in the UK, it’s hard work but the pay is unbelievable! I live a fantastic life style 👍😁
Happy for you!!! Keep making that money!
Its for every 6 union employees 1 employee can be hired off the streets..we have several from the street but they have no seniority a few drove before me but i got flipped to 300 before them..our top pay is literally life changing..also i constantly see fed ex guys running for their life on my route..ive been to prison..mom died..and homeless..UPS CHANGED MY LIFE!!
What do you mean from the street instead of union?
@@luigui707 a person that works in the building is a union employee person who does not work for the company at all applying for a driver position is applying from the streets so this is just an example a union employee will take maybe 2 years to be a driver where a person who applied from the streets will probably take five to six years because they only go to one of those applications after every six Union employees are offered the position

How is pvd?
What’s is a full time combination driver / warehouse is it good are bad for a newbie
Great story man, you got it going good for yourself. I’m a UPS driver in Fresno Ca, been employed for 23 years. It took me 5 years to be pulled up into driving. We have a union and everything’s based on seniority. They do allow 1 out of every 5 drivers to be pulled in from the street, but it’s rare. UPS and Fed Ex still the big boys on the block
Yup!!! kinda cool how they can pull 1 person from the streets. I heard before here at express it was kinda the same but ever since COVID, they hire anybody lmao 🤣
23 years working that’s very common in this industry i’ve heard stories like that here too in Australia 🇦🇺
I was a package handler for a year , I had to leave due to some financial struggles, I was gone a month . Now I re applied for seasonal driver with chance for driving position. Now the thing about the union is if you reach out to them they will bat for you , I thought I was screwed with my seniority but if they keep me fingers crossed 🤞 I get my seniority back .
Amazon in my area up north from you in lathrop paying $20 an hour which is way more than fedX is paying rn
Congrats on your 23 years. I’ve been with UPS for 30 years, 23 as a driver in Philly. Getting ready to retire this summer. Still not sure if want to though. Im so used to running around all day in that truck that I don’t think I’d know what to do with myself not being in that truck all day
been working as a unloader for 3 weeks, and i honestly think i would try to make it a career here in california being that im 28 years old with no type of other careers going for me.

Just transfer to Kansas. You will have a job
How’s the work environment?
@@matthewp9740 its very chill place as far as the supervisors/trainers n shit go, they are all kind and respectful and not ass holes but i think they are like that because they know how hard the job is, so they dont want to give anybody another reason to quit lol...

i make $140 a day at fedex, crap money for the hours i’m putting in. recently applied at ups, just waiting for a drivers course to open up.

Stuff is changing fast! 34 an hour for drivers at ups STARTING out where i am
I started in 2020 of January got hired one week of training then straight into sleeper teams i wrk at cach in Hodgkins Illinois
Man that’s awesome Currently working on getting my CDL!!!
Over here in Denver Colorado Amazon dsp starting at 21 a hour weekly pay full benefits
Still 16.50 over here in Texas unfortunately lol
We had a guy get hired on as a driver but it screws him cuz his in house senoity date and full time date are the same so he cant bump in house. I'm a part time air driver and gunna stay as one cuz shit 37.50 / hr for just driving to each out our towns to pick up boxes and come back to take to the airport is ez money round 50k a year give or take so not a lot but for the cost of living here its plenty
I got hired off the street during the pandemic, usually they hire drivers from within but I guess they needed drivers, I'm about to hit 2 years and this company has been ok to me, the insurance is supposedly one of the best but I haven't really used it so idk but the pay is great, the hours suck if you aren't a hard worker, i normally work from 9am-7:45 with one 1 hour unpaid lunch, sometimes they force you to work 6 days but it's based on seniority so they force from the bottom up .... one good thing is that if they work you over 9.5 hours for more than 3 days in a week you can file a grievance because of that and you get payed overtime rate for every hour you work over the 9.5 hours.... so basically triple pay..... starting driver pay is 21, 1 year 23, 2 years 24, 3 years 28.75, 4 years is top pay at 40.50
Sometimes I look back at it and wonder if I want to get back in! What would you consider the most stressful part of the job?
@@matthewp9740 in my opinion it's the hours, sometimes they force you in to work 6 days a week, we don't work Sundays to that's the only guaranteed day off but as you gain more seniority over the years theu won't force you anymore, that's pretty much it in my opinion, if you can survive to first couple years then you will have a great job cause this job is all based on seniority, the drivers that been here the longest don't get forced in on their days off, they have first dibs on the routs they want, and are first in line to pick vacation times.... but as I said you can get on the "9.5 list" so if they try to fuck you over and overwork you yih can file grievances and get payed "triple time" for very hour that you worked over 9.5 hours, but you have to work over 9.5 hours for 3 days or more in a week so it's basically free money
@@matthewp9740 also you will never work over 60 hours in a week cause of some rule they have so that's good but I'm lazy and I like to be at home so it pisses me off when they force me in to work Saturdays but on average I work about 48-50 hours a week, and when I work the 6th day is goes to around 58-60 but you cant pass 60 because of dot rules
@@matthewp9740 also it depends on the routes too bro I'm sure you know some routes are a bitch and others are stress free and you just listen to podcast or music all day I'm sure you know how it is but like I said once you gain a good amount of seniority you will be able to have first dibs on the routes that you want
@@ericzz93 yeah right now at express my route is pretty easy! I only do pickups and work about 6 to 7 hours on road. What kills me sometimes is they make us do package handler work when we return, which can be sometimes a lot. Unloading trucks scanning packages etc…. I just wish pay was better but I don’t think that’s ever coming lol 😂
In Canada, UPS and FedEx express are very close in pay. Fedex Canada progression to top is 5 years compared to 4 years for Ups

I always had a feeling the "boys in brown" made guap. It used to be extremely difficult to get a delivery job with them. I heard it's getting easier now.
It’s still tough! I do know someone that got lucky though! Been there 7 years!!!
U were 18 and u have to be 21 to be a driver. Just like me when I started preload package handling. In the 3 years it took me to be 21 I had the seniority to be called for driving school. You just missed out dog
Missed out big time!
Jus got offered a seasonal position as a package delivery driver also I have my class A they told me if I perform well the chances are they will hire me on after peak season (small delay after) but I’m not sure if I’m willing to leave my permanent position at Xpo hoping to get hire for ups
We are in the same boat. What did you decide to do?
Same thing with me bro I'm a little older but I worked at ups in 05 when I was young and left on bad terns after a year. Fast forward in my life I've had my class a for 5 years now I work also for a fedex ground contractor for extra money but get your class a bro u can.

Here in Wisconsin it was pretty easy to get on UPS as a driver
How long did it take you to get in?
Ups is all about seniority especially in the warehouse and when it’s peak season all the managers and supervisors are assholes for no reason if your applying for ups don’t apply during the holidays apply in the beginning of the year
You at Express or Ground?
Now of the last few years it takes about 2 years being a package handler to become a package car driver, which isn't bad because it use to take up to 10 years
Easiest way to get in is go through peak bust your ass off and they will hire you if your perform jus do the job and take it one stop at a time
I’ve considered about making the move back to ups!
I’m a ups driver for Menlo Park ca I first work for ups as a driver in 2015 I quit and then came back in 2018 I was able to come back as a driver been there every since you just have to talk to the right people and they will help you get back in or change your email because the ups system recognized your email and automatically denied you just change it and you be fine
Thanks for letting me know I tried last august and was getting denied and was like oh well lmao but now things just got interesting!
Yeah just used a different email that’s what my HR told me when I was trying to apply back I was having the same problem the system was denied me to until I spoke to the HR department and they told me to used a different email because the system recognizes old emails
Isn't based on your social?
Bro… what are you talking about. It’s based off your social security.
I’m just saying what my supervisor told.I work at ups as a driver back in 2015 I quit and then I when back to you UPS in 2017 and I’m still there I’m making 40 bucks an hours
UPS is my first and only job. Started working part time in 08. In 2018 I got hired as a feeder driver straight from package handling. Just reached scale pay around Christmas and life is just comfortable. 💯
Congrats man!!! You making that big money now!!!!! 💰
UPS has a union, they are protected. Funny im watching this, when earlier during my route, I bullshited with a UPS driver and asked him the pros of the job
Yeah I always talk to my ups driver when I get the chance we always joke about each other’s company lol
FedEx is better then UPS.
It’s crazy how FedEx Express isn’t even trying to compete with UPS as far as pay. You would think they would at least a little competitive pay wise. They would probably retain more drivers. I believe UPS drivers are union. They are here in CT. That could be the difference
Because fedex has fedex ground to help which are ran by 3rd party contractors.
FedEx is the best company that I have ever worked for however their pay SUCKS. FedEx Express is non union. Good Benefits though.
If you go UPS FEEDER driver is what you want.
I was a overnight pre-loader for 1 night at ups and gave up that night lol became a driver 3 years later at ups best job I’ve ever had
Lol it was tough! But glad your back and driving!! Best of luck!!!
Doesnt UPS also require their drivers to have a class B license? Fedex doesnt
Bro all you have to do to get into UPS is come in as a seasonal driver
You mentioned being 18, you have to be 21 to drive a commercial driver. But in most cases, you have to start part time & build up seniority
I applied as a driver with ups recently and they are hiring on the spot. Its in the Seattle area and this ups hub starting pay is 28 dollars. Other hubs are 24 dollars starting in the area. I can't pass up 28 dollars an hour full time.
Buy a back brace to take a huge amount of stress on your back
Went in as a driver at peak season , got laid off , got called 5 months later now permanent
How do you have time to do this and not get one trouble? When I'm a FedEx courier there is ZERO time to stop
I do it on my break lol. other than that I have to utilize my time wisely 😂
UPS the same way now my guy
Every 6 drivers that are hired at UPS they have to hire 1 off the street. From what I have seen almost every off the street hire is just a supervisor that quits and they hire him/her for the position. It gives them someone who is fairly familiar with the position that they can trust moving forward. I also see it as a way they can spy on the driving force by placing in a former supervisor in within them.
nah man that supe is now union that's just fucked up
@@vincentvo8483 I agree it is fucked up. I’m just saying what I’ve seen happening
