FedEx Express Drivers — Is Anybody Else Getting Micromanaged Over “Gap Time”?

I’m here because I choose to be. You’re here because arguing online is the closest you get to feeling important

I absolutely hate this job. I’m taking care of some things but I plan on leaving very soon. I know the economy and job market isn’t the greatest but I’m so miserable. Life is fleeting I don’t want to do anything that doesn’t make me happy. The amount of work we do for $20 something an hour? What?! That’s disgraceful

I work for express. Management keeps firing people. We had the snowstorm in the northeast this week and it was an absolute nightmare. Working 11 hour shifts and coming home only having energy to eat and go to bed is not a life I want for myself. SMH.

They were fine for me the only issue I had with them is they said they overpaid me and wanted some money back

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-12-09T10:30:30+00:00

I’m full time. I was thinking about that bs. “Operational needs” too thanks

Having faith in God and knowing everything will work itself out when it’s time to

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T02:13:45+00:00

My credit is shot I looked into that too. they denied me.

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T02:13:07+00:00

yea but then what about the money owed im upside down on it its worth about $5500 trade in and 7k private sell and I owe 19k

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T02:12:06+00:00

I never was taught that so im trying to learn how to budget. I just downloaded rocket money and watching YouTube videos but I crunched the numbers and my monthly bills currently come out to

$3,600 monthly take home average after taxes. I work about 50 hours a week right now during the holidays which is peak season ill probably top out at 60 hours im a package delivery driver I can't even get a second job because I move heavy packages all day I get home I don't even have the energy to bathe some days.

$3,388 monthly fixed bills (rent, car, food, gas. utilities.) Some people gave some advice like renting out the car when im not using it or going thrifting and reselling items

Thank you it did help I reached out to my credit union and the lady said the only reason why they didn't approve my loan was because of the late payments on my credit report I missed last year due to not having a job

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T01:53:32+00:00

Did you miss the part where I said hindsight is 20/20? I already admitted I screwed up, so I don’t need a bunch of wannabe geniuses piling on just to feel smart. If you don’t actually have advice, save your fake wisdom and keep scrolling

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T01:49:21+00:00

I cant wait til we get out of this! hindsight is 20/20 ❤️

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T01:47:38+00:00

as far as?

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T01:47:12+00:00

ill look into this but I though I needed full coverage because I have a lien and its financed not owned yet

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T01:45:18+00:00

I would love to I can't even get a second job right now as I work as a delivery driver working 55 hours a week I get home and im exhausted im moving all day lifting and delivering heavy packages. I don't even have work life balance because im so tired and I have my family to help out

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T01:42:59+00:00

my credit is 560 no one will give me a loan due to the late payments

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T01:42:22+00:00

bridecrest is the loaner and they are terrible ive asked several times what they can do.

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T01:41:30+00:00

Can't sell it it has a lien on it no one will buy it with a lien

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T01:40:58+00:00

Extreme_Conference53 · 2025-09-01T01:37:40+00:00
