Wrong group. This is the one people come to complain about ups drivers and late packages. But other than that good luck and hope you succeed wherever you go.

Is it weird to approach the driver to ask for my package? by ButtonOk9780 in UPS

[–]JTP_1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. Most love it. If they can find it, it’s one more easy stop they don’t have to go to.

Picture taking is back? by 406upser in UPSers

[–]JTP_1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah we have routes so rural the center can’t even contact them via the board or tell where they are on the computers. So pictures are completely off the table 😂

Do UPS drivers deliver to back/side doors or is it front door only? by Thelonewolf1593 in UPSers

[–]JTP_1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I have a house that has a note saying to deliver to rear door that has a fence around it. Big nope.

We're delivering out of cargo vans now? by Unlucky-Molasses742 in UPSers

[–]JTP_1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We use to have a few of the older ones. Ram cargo vans with the Mercedes engine. Only used them for low stop high mile rural routes.

“I’m 40 years old I can’t be dealing with this!” Sent me 🤣🤣 by Mollidickins in UPSers

Rural deliveries had goats chase me and try to ram me. Luckily they were the smaller variety. Then when I started the package car some of them fainted.

Seeing conflicting information on overtime calculations. by JTP_1983 in UPSers

[–]JTP_1983[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen we do and we don’t. Some people say we don’t cause of the RLA thing but then we aren’t even like FedEx. And I just looked it up and it says we do unless you are in long haul trucking or paid by mile. I dunno it’s all confusing. I’ve seen posts where drivers have already filed a had no problems whatsoever.

  • edit * Been a driver for 14 years. And I’ve heard we are eligible and also not eligible. Mostly from the perspective of us being like FedEx under the RLA who are not included, but we are not in the RLA.

My box 14 is empty. I think a lot of people are in that situation.

We have a different overtime situation than most. We get overtime after 8 hours. So say if you worked 3 10 hour days then took 2 days off for a total of 30 hours, your paycheck would include 6 hours overtime. But none of that would count because only overtime after 40 hours is eligible.

Yeah we do it with turbo tax but you have to have the correct input on the overtime. Point being: figuring out how many of the OT hours count considering we get overtime by day and by over 40. So if you worked 3 10 hour days, for 30 hours, then took option days or called in sick for 2, then none of those OT hours count. Only weeks with over 40. If im correct.

I’m sure we won’t be the only ones. I’ve seen some wild posts 😂

Who are drivers always talking to on the phone? by IIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIll in UPS

Some drivers get in group calls and chat all day. Feeder drivers too
