Why do drivers have this elitist attitude?

[nWo]

Because when we started in 93. We made $8/hr and we liked it. Not like these entitled millennials.

 

[quad decade guy]

It’s incredible that they got their jobs back.

We had a feeder driver that had 3. 3rd one was career ending.

Paid $8/hr in '83. and 2003. Now in 2022 pay is $15/hr. Minimum wage.

And so, everyone had a good laugh and just walked off? Really?

Here, there was a time when you didn't move that trailer until you had a load retainer deployed.

You sure do assume a lot of stuff. I declined a trip to the hospital after I sat in the break room and got my senses back. How does one know if there is a load retainer up if it's parked on a pad in the yard and it's dark?

 

[SmithBarney]

Why? Because they make 3x what you do and they worked harder than you to get there and they used to load trucks before PALs and had to do it uphill in the snow.

They didn't work harder.... Just longer, seniority rules no matter how you get there.

He told me I was unathletic

White men can’t jump

I was paranoid about it. Always had the hand brake on and good and tight. A seasonal driver had a package car roll away, hit a parked car.

@11.19igrad … see ?

Yeah that was probably worth like $30 in 2022 money.

 

[Shift Inhibit]

Basically life or death....ok.

Here we go.

Hi, Safety is no joke Quad.

In college, there is a saying that everyone gains The Freshman 15 when they leave high school.

In feeders, I call it The Feeder 50 when

Like what I said before driving feeders is a big responsibility.

Lol…

You think he is challenging yellow tights for his title of brown cafe safety chair??

 

[Coldworld]

I was always told that roll-aways were a guaranteed termination, but every roll away I ever saw the driver got their job back, including a couple in feeders.

Didn’t they change that a few years ago??

 

[wilberforce15]

Yeah that was probably worth like $30 in 2022 money.

Yeah, 8 for him is higher than current starting pay, by a lot.

 

[Jones]

Didn’t they change that a few years ago??

Maybe? But the first rollaway I knew about in package was over 20 years ago and that guy got his job back. Last one I saw in feeders was maybe 5-6 years ago.

 

[Non sequitur]

Um yeah

 

[Trailer monkey]

Yeah that was probably worth like $30 in 2022 money.

$15.64

Next time you're at the airport ask a pilot how does he like having the second best job at UPS?
