    I'm in CT and get paid $1.25 per stop plus 10 cents for each additional package. I'm usually anywhere from 130-150 stops after peak and done by 1:30. After it's all said and done, I average anywhere between $35-$40 an hour

    • @blakebenke9340

      Yeah, but don’t be delusional & convince yourself you make that an hour. That’s what contractors want you to believe to motivate you & boost your ego so you think what you’re doing is worth it.
      If you got caught on route that day & didn’t get finished til say 4:30 then are you still “averaging” that same amount an hour ? Exactly.
      I promise you if you went to your contractor and said, “You know what? I’d like to get paid $35 an hour versus my rate per stop.” He would turn around and counter you at $18-$21 an hour real quick.

    Hey man I like your videos. I get 22 per hour as well but no time and a half pay. However if I do 200 stops a day(for example) and the sum of that multiplied by 1.20(1.50 on Mondays) is greater, then I get that instead. It’s a good deal if you do stops fast enough and you can actually make way more than you would with overtime. Also get full benefits.

    I couldn't agree more about having that extra time for yourself. I work from home in the mortgage industry and I can either have smooth days or very frustrating days. After watching your videos, I even sometimes just want to quit my job and become a FedEx driver lol, but I'm 41 years old and live on Long Island, NY so I feel like it would be tougher for me due to my age (not having as much energy) and most likely having to work longer hours &/or weekends on top of that. Not sure I could handle it all but I do like the gig you have going. I normally work M-F as well and with my industry, it can be busy or kinda dead so sometimes I will have OT and other times (like today), I'll only work for about 3 - 4 hours. Anyway, thanks for sharing and good luck out there! I always look forward to your videos. Stay safe!

    I work a business heavy route that features a whole bunch of hospitals and clinics in a medical district which also includes an entire university. I get paid $1 per delivery stop, $1.05 per pickup stop and $0.18 for every single package I scan regardless of delivery or pickup so on average I get about 105 delivery stops, 6 pickups and around 450 to 550 total packages scanned, so if you do the math that's around $192 to $210 per day so over the course of a week that adds up to between $960 and $1050 before taxes.

    Not a bad hourly. $22.XX. But you really should switch to express. New hires (if you can get into an station that is hiring) start at $18.xx or higher depending on the district pay. But you’ll get overtime easily and you get 8% match by putting at least 6% down. And individual health coverage is at $6/check (weekly) with decent coverage. And $26/check for family coverage (regardless of amount of members). Plus much less stops than ground if you’re in a smaller city. But even if you do have the same amount of stops as ground you’re area is small. But often much less bulky items comparably. UPS is obviously the bigger payout but also works you as hard as ground if not more.

I’m glad it happened bcuz I qualified for a state grand which will pay my $5k tuition to get my CDL. The only thing which is delaying me right now is a ticket which I got almost 2 years which I did take care of 2 years ago. The court failed to offer me a plead deal through a lawyer to get it dismissed. Good think I took care of it the weeks after I got it. I just hope that it gets dismissed soon!

At my station part time is the better way to go since you can still get full time hours if you want to, but don't have to.

    Every contractor countrywide pays different and on a different scale, so this video is just an example. Contractors here in the Midwest do not pay overtime because you are paid per day and no matter how long you work, its the same pay. FedEx originally did this as a way to get around the law which would have put them on a similar playing field as UPS. It has worked well ($$$$) as a Corp but service for the customer has greatly suffered.

    I've been with FedEx since 2017. I felt like a shitbag because I kept switching contractors for the first several years. I've worked for 5 different contractors. I was fired from one for bitching about safety defects, got fired for poor performance by another one, and fired a third time because I engaged in a petty argument with an Express employee while waiting for my 18:00 pickup to open
    I ALMOST left the network all together but decided to took one last stab at it. I got taken on as a driver for an AO who described himself as "The best contractor in the region". Within a few months, I became one of the top drivers in our company and was making more money than I ever had before. I was promoted to BC in Jan 2021. Within weeks of being promoted, corporate pulled our contract.
    Within hours, I was inundated with job offers from contractors trying to get in on the territory that my AO had just lost. For the first time in my life, I was in a position to turn down job offers I felt were undesirable.
    I'm now a driver on a dedicated commercial route, fixed schedule, non-slipseated late model truck, making a minimum of $1200/wk with effectively limitless OT, flexible scheduling and benefits. In less than 2 years, I was named a Top 10 driver in our pool of 50 drivers across 3 states
    TLDR - Most of them suck, but if you are lucky enough to find a decent contractor, it is a lucrative job with excellent job security. And for any AOs reading this, if you pay your employees a decent wage, it compels them to care about their job and do the right thing. After working for several shit contractors, I can tell you there is a profound difference in attitude and demeanor when you are paid fairly

    been driving for Fed Ex ground for a couple of months now. Got decent at the downtown route in my town. Really hard but doable. I have come to the conclusion that working for FedEx Ground is immoral if you desire for people who do this extremely hard job to be adequately compensated. FedEx Ground was created with the sole intention of undercutting UPS, a unionized with health benefits delivery company that expects results but treats their employees well. FedEx ground on the other hand pushes contractors to break the rules (of FedEx and sometimes the law) while working for a low daily rate that hourly can at times be similar to minimum wage.

    FedEX Ground drivers get paid on a salary basis not hourly. In Ontario (Canada) they got paid like 180 ca$ per day which encourages drivers to run to houses, businesses, condos, drive fast, disobey stop signs to save time. They try to finish their job within 8 hours but contractors/managers always push them so they spend more and more time. If they work 6 or 7 days a week NO OVERTIME just plain salary 180 CA$/day. Due to running this winter I fell a few times on ice/snow luckily no injury or detected so far.
    If the driver takes longer than 8 hours this job is not worth it HIGH RISK and low pay. Salary based pay system should be ILLEGAL as it's not only dangerous for drivers but other people on road. I hope other people understand too what delivery drivers go through everyday.
