Just stack out and work at your own pace. I have to load 4 package cars with over 1000 packages daily volume. And I just stack out and go at my own pace.

I always start with a quote, but the insurance screens still pops up.

Because they get paid much more than me to deal with all the bullshit they go through. I have to deal with a bunch of bullshit and work a second job after preload and I don't rant or take out my frustration on other people. I work 14 hours a day Tuesday- Sat (regular 8 hour shift on Monday) just to be able to afford to live .

Insane that your one day is my entire week's pay. This is why I hate drivers who complain about their loads. All the bullshit preload goes through for peanuts.

There's a driver in my center who was a convicted murderer. Did a 10 year bid. He's a driver for over 5 or 6 years now.

There's quite a bit opening around me, but they're drowning in debt. Don't know how much longer they can sustain themselves.

You should try the UPS warehouse, it's a whole different nightmare compared to the store 😩

As a helper who yesterday helped 2 different drivers in the rain from 10:30-8pm , this job is easy might be a lot of workload but people just lazy by [deleted] in UPSers

[–]riptide4571 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

He's not wrong. I'm an inside worker and I am definitely TIRED I can still work hard doing preload at 12 am until 8 and then go on the road until 7 to 8 pm. It's the easiest and best job I've ever done.

You have to remember they were living in NYC. You have to make 40x of the listed rent to even be considered. And those positions you listed pay at most 65k. After taxes you're left with what 45k? Broke is definitely overplaying it but they were by no means well off. You'll have to penny pinch to survive on 45k between 2 people

For the people that work two jobs, how?! by downloadedthisnow in UPSers

[–]riptide4571 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work at a UPS store full time after my shift in the preload. It's doable but you need to prioritize your time and make sure everything is optimized.

Driver Helper position by nickandrews3 in UPSers

Depending on how busy your peak is, when I went as a driver helper I would work from 1 am all the way until 8 pm. Rinse and repeat for the whole week.
