Orrrr just work 40 hrs and buy a normal sized truck and skip the boat and 4 kids …

By the way …some people know how to make money outside UPS 😉

Obviously all you know how to do is sling cardboard for a living

🤷‍♂️
You should do just that then, because it never has and never will be that way at UPS, with the notable exception of 22.3 jobs.

"8 and skate" isn't in the cards for drivers, so play the ones you are dealt or ante up in a different game.

But they should be able to dispatch drivers where reasonable amount of work say like 9 hours?

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Were you under the assumption that this was an 8hr job when you accepted a full time position?
Nope but that doesn’t mean people just have to bend over and accept it forever either.

Also there are parts of the country they can’t find anyone that wants to drive. Some of that is they don’t make enough unless they work 12 hours a day. But many are also forgoing driving because they don’t like the time requirements of the job.

If you can’t fill jobs because of the requirements of the job. Well then something has to give.

I think the company is going to nickel and dime themselves into non existence eventually.

I just always find it funny when people bitch about the younger generation not wanting to spend their life in an ups truck.

I 100% understand the job I took. But I also get that if no one wants to take the open jobs the employer must do something to make that job more attractive.

The entire point of unions in the first place was so the employee didn’t just have to bend over and take whatever under the premises of well that’s the job.
