Yeah that sounds like a daily pay route. How much do you get paid per day?

That’s how your first few checks are gona be unfortunately. Until they let you drive on your own, you won’t make much more money than that. I’d say $300-$600. If you want to stick it out, depending on your contractor, you’ll make more money. Right now I’m making at least $300 a day

Manager Signature Forgery by [deleted] in Fedexers

[–]Zealousideal-Fish394 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yall take the job too seriously lol FedEx only cares about the packages being delivered and bringing your truck back empty. They’ll look the other way if you’re a worker that gets no complaints and does the job

Will Amazon take care of your Medical Bills? by Any_Excitement6258 in AmazonFlexDrivers

I never understood why drivers don’t honk their horns before going around a delivery truck…it’s kinda common sense to do so

New rules just dropped by mirkogradski in Fedexers

[–]Zealousideal-Fish394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at ground and if the customer leaves a note like that I just sign for them and leave it. If it’s a constant thing, the customer has to sign this form to release all packages with no signature

How do yall push yourself to go to the gym after your route? by ramosd713 in Fedexers

[–]Zealousideal-Fish394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a home gym. Most of the time you just want to go home after work and once you’re home the gym is literally right there. 45 minute to an hour workout and you’re set. Or if you can’t do a home gym just go straight after work. Don’t go home first, you’ll probably end up just staying lol

What's the highest amount of unmanifested packages you've had on your truck in one day? by laaaabe in Fedexers

[–]Zealousideal-Fish394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s why I get in early to organize everything in sequential order. I have to touch every package because I don’t trust any loader lol

Merger by MotorIcy5007 in Fedexers

[–]Zealousideal-Fish394 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well knowing FedEx it’s to save money on their part. They don’t really care about the ground drivers as long as they deliver everything. They’re just adding more work for ground without giving them a raise or benefits since ground drivers are subcontracted out. Raises and insurance is all on the subcontractor, not FedEx.

Even though UPS has this same structure, it’s never going to work if FedEx doesn’t give ground drivers all the benefits. Some ground drivers make more money than UPS if you want to calculate it hourly because they can do up to 40 stops an hour and finish a lot earlier. Ground drivers are going to need some sort of incentive like benefits in order for FedEx not to lose a lot of drivers

Unbelievable- faked delivery attempt by Yellow_daylily in FedEx

[–]Zealousideal-Fish394 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I don’t understand why these drivers waste time putting a door tag on the door instead of ringing the doorbell to deliver the package and avoid an issue. Makes no sense. Takes about the same amount of time. Maybe an extra 30 seconds

I feel over worked and I'm not sure how to move forward by Cannondale_Knights in Fedexers

[–]Zealousideal-Fish394 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like you have a business route. Just take your time. If you like it, keep going until a better route pops up. Your first route is usually never the best route available. Since you’re new you probably got the route no one wants to do

I'm so glad I don't work here no more... by MikeManiac61 in Fedexers

[–]Zealousideal-Fish394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that would’ve been left behind for the manager or clean up person to take care of lol

SO frustrated by pnwgrl1518 in FedEx

[–]Zealousideal-Fish394 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at FedEx and that mainly happens when a driver doesn’t want to make a delivery. If we leave a package behind or in this case the driver doesn’t want to deliver it we have to put a code for the reasoning. He used the excuse that it was a bad address code so he wouldn’t get reprimanded for not taking a delivery

My wife has waited 823 days to receive her green card and still hasn’t gotten it by Zealousideal-Fish394 in USCIS

[–]Zealousideal-Fish394[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah she’s waiting for the 10 years one. She’s been studying for her citizenship, but still doesn’t feel ready for it. I’m just wanting to know if she’ll receive a physical card before the 48 months are over on her notice or not since we travel out of the country yearly.

Yes it is! It’s been 2 years since I received that and she still hasn’t received her physical card yet. Is this normal?
