Whoa....
In his 50s, Frank Luscher chose to leave decades of experience in manufacturing and test engineering behind to become a delivery driver at UPS.
And he’s glad he did.
Following a move to Austin, Texas, Frank joined UPS part-time during the holiday peak season to earn some extra money. After discovering our
industry-leading pay and benefits, he quickly decided to make driving his full-time career.
“UPS is paying drivers the equivalent to what some senior engineers in my old field were making,” Frank said. “How many jobs can you
start with no experience and earn the same salary as other fields that require years of experience plus a degree?”
Did you know? Average annual pay for a full-time UPS small package driver is $95,000 a year, with an
additional $50,000 in health, welfare and pension contributions. Total compensation is about $145,000 a year, on average.
