Paid actual? Yeah, I'm sure they'll want everyone to take a paid actual. I'm not volunteering and we'd have to be in deep trouble for the bottom up to reach me. Looking forward to a 3 day weekend!
So much more that I wish I could tell you.
They are off the charts this year

I have never seen more grown men crying over having to go to work and make $53 a hour...more americans would go to work on Christmas Eve for half that.

I’m full of it
A lot of these guys have had the crap worked out of them would like to just enjoy a three day weekend with family and friends.
What's quality time with family worth to you?

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
About $35 an hour. Otherwise I'd just be a stay at home dad.

I mean when the whole immediate and extended family is off and together. And you have a choice to make. The extra money or the chance to see everyone before everyone scatters to resume their normal work weeks/lives.
Normal workweeks are a given. Rare family time is not. What Christmas Eve hourly rate gets you to sacrifice that time for the driver's seat?

Apparently about $35 an hour since most of us work Christmas Eve every other year.

If you aren't already on OT by Saturday then something is wrong with your center! It's over $50 an hour for most drivers.

I think these guys have been going an extra mile for the past month, give it up.

You all listen to Do it by the book, do yourselves a favor! I'm glad after being burned over and over again, I adapted this attitude. I would have never made it to retirement had I not. This is my 3rd peak in retirement, loving life now! Almost (almost) have forgotten what that kind of work was like. Enjoy seeing my driver when he delivers here. He seems like a very smart guy as wellAgain, what you said is laughable. Guys always crack up and laugh by me saying I should write a book on how to be a UPS driver......said they should put a monument up of me when I hang it up.....and implore me to join the union to represent them because I keep them on a tight leash. Yourself and others I guess would just have to be in my building to see firsthand for yourself to understand and believe me. They see me get little perks so to say......do or say things others would be let go for.
And my friend......mywill fly wherever I go in life because I have what's called self respect.....I don't get stepped on. I put my neck on the line standing up for myself and took heat without crying to the union for many years here and faced so much harassment you would not believe it. Threatened with anything and everything. Was never broken and now they pretty much gave up because the faster their mouths run the slower my feet move.
Having a sharp and fast thinking mind.....big heart......and good sized balls keeps me in the game.
Lastly.....all I can suggest is for drivers not to be so afraid and intimidated by UPS just because they're such a huge company. Don't be such a doormat and pushover for them or they will drain everything from you as much as possible because again.....THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU!! All you are is an employee number in their system......treat you all like unbreakable machines in their quest for numbers and performance.
If more drivers got wise and did the job properly without cutting corners in so many ways they would have no choice but to put more routes in and lighten workloads. So many guys complain about the company burying them with work yet it's our own union drivers who allow it and condone it with garbage "fast food" work methods. SLOW DOWN and DO THINGS THE RIGHT WAY!!
