My least favorite thing about being a UPS driver

That's how I empty my trash bin.

They stopped putting trash bins in some of our package cars because we were losing the whole trash can out the door on the 1 mile bridge across the river. People were forgetting to put the little retainer clips down that hold the can in and the can would lift out of the truck and ........buh-bye!!!

We use our tire chains to keep them in.

Having an incompetent dispatcher. These days I don't even think he's incompetent, more like a saboteur or deaf.
I think ours is just overworked to be able to do a competent job. When it's busy, he has nearly 100 routes to manage. The stupidity that results is worthy of reward.

Missing my kids sports, school activities, and microwaving my dinner. With that being said, my wife and kids love all the money that dad makes.

Bad weather has to be at the top of the list.

Nothing worse than torrential rain all day where it's like you went swimming in your uniform. The other being sent out during a blizzard.
