235 stops yesterday and another driver told me it's going to get worse. It's definitely busier over here.

Depends how many people they hire

Excellent news

PVD's making it easy.

The PVDs in my loop are clinically * so they are constantly being bailed out by roving seasonals in Uhauls.

Doesn't matter if they're incompetent

I don't care how busy it is. I'm in the hub, and I work at a safe steady pace. Had my 1st punch of the week this morning, a whole 3 hours. I'll work a long day on Friday for the full day of time and a half, and an extra long day on Saturday for that sweet, sweet double time. And regardless of how busy I it gets, I won't break a sweat.

2 CPU’s yesterday. 8.25 hours. Didn’t lift a finger. Lots of Netflix.

I just found out today at our monthly retired UPS drivers breakfast that my old center has hired so much extra Christmas help that getting much more than 8 hours a day is hard. Damn you guys have it easy now.

A few years ago I’m working out of a building I did not do package in. I see the package drivers at peak back at 6pm every night so I’m thinking to myself WTF? PVD’s I was told. I was a 9.5 driver and they would absolutely eviscerate me at peak. 14 hours every single day. Never got any help. Would bring back 50 stops every day. These drivers have it so easy now is right.

Yep, peak is easy now. Low cost pvd's drivers suck up all the overtime.

Unfortunately, a ton of drivers are getting laid off come January now. Use to be a few bottom seniority guys for a few weeks, now it's a herd of guys for months.

Best thing at peak my last few years driving was meeting my PVD driver and dumping stops on him.
