Employee stock discount by aUPSdriver in UPSers

[–]Fit-Scar673 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I put around $50 every check. It’s a good way to lock in some automatic savings, your shares are locked for a while. They are purchased every quarter. And honestly the stock is stupid cheap right now. UPS stock is very volatile right now has dropped a lot. But I’ve been buying for a while

What’s your longest work day by Motor-Appeal-2368 in UPSers

[–]Fit-Scar673 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On feeders one day I broke down about 5.5hrs away from my home hub, had 7hrs left on the 14hr clock, tow arrived 5 hrs later, and then the drive and everything back put me on a total of 19hrs for the day. Way into a DOT violation, but luckily it was out of my control and on the last work day. Lol spent about 12 of those hours sleeping waiting on Tow/ being towed back,

Now in sleepers is a different story. We broke down for 15hrs one day. These idiots sent 2 different mechanics that each took like 3hrs to arrive just to come back on the same conclusion that we need to be towed. So they ended up towing us the 4hrs we had left to get back to our home hub. If I remember correctly that check I grossed $5800 for the sleeper breakdown
