PEAK IS BACK (Am I Getting Promoted?)

[@Jolly1928]

You’re the definition on efficiency, well done man. I work for UPS and have my own route too, it’s about 110 to 120 stops, about 60 miles, 40 of those miles are for one bulk pickup. I usually deliver around 225 to 250 packages and pickup around 700 to 800 packages a day. I usually complete my route right around 7 hours. At UPS every route is given a time allocation based on the work you do, and if you finish your day before your time allotment you get bonus pay (straight wage) for the difference between your actual hours worked and your time allocation for that day. Most days I get around 3 hours of bonus pay which is awesome. So typically I work 7 hours and get paid around 10. During peak I was volunteering for more hours after I completed my route so I was getting the DOT max 60 hours a week plus adding the bonus pay of around 15 hours a week I was getting paid around 75 hours a week (40 hours straight pay, 20 hours OT pay and 15 hours of bonus straight pay). I wish you got better compensation for how efficient you are, you would definitely be in that 3 to 4 hour bonus pay per day. How many miles do you typically do on your route daily? You probably said it in one of your videos, but I missed it. Anyways keep up the amazing work! Are you still looking for other delivery drivers to video their routes?

I would LOVE to have you vlog. Dm me on Instagram. I only do about 40 total miles per day. People always ask me why I don’t do UPS. I’m assuming I wouldn’t the able to make a lateral movement. If have to start as a handler like most correct? And then work my way up? Anywho, definitely DM me so we can get you vlogging. First guest vlog should come out at the end of this week

[@pianoman1969]

Well, looks like you have great boss that recognizes hard work and work ethic. I hardly ever see or hear from mine unless I contact him first. I'm still interested in vlogging, just haven't done it yet. I'll be in touch.

[@Deliverypros]

I also hardly ever hear from mine 😂 that’s usually a good sign. Yes please! Let me know!

[@Thetimeisntcomingback]

Nice, I’m USPS. I live in AZ and my route is all walking. Maybe I’ll vlog, we’ll see if I can get away with it lol

[@Deliverypros]

Please hit me up. I would LOVE to have that on here!

[@jojolopez177]

How is it at usps I’m thinking about applying.

[@ThatFedexGuyWv]

im at usps now but id be willing to try and vlog some as we have been getting hit pretty hard with amazon packages lol

[@Deliverypros]

Do it! Hit me up in my DMs on instagram and let’s coordinate. I’d love to have you on

[@skyetalks5093]

I would love if you did a video explaining route patterning to optimize pace,like a do’s and dont’s

[@AppalachianDIY]

That poor UPS man may be working ridiculous hours, but it's all overtime and good hourly pay. He's making more than all of us. I drive for Amazon but have considered FedEx ground. Not sure about the pay per day thing. Plenty of drivers I've seen making $160 per day working 10-12 hours. That's more rural stops. I do a rural route. From clock in to clock out 160 stops is about a 10 hour day. We also worked 6 days a week through peak. Nice paychecks but working 60 hours burns you out pretty fast

[@Deliverypros]

Ya no amount of money is worth my mental sanity 😂

[@sega_saturn4life590]

I wouldn’t wish fed ex ground on my worst enemy.

[@conormcqregor4393]

Doesn’t seem that bad outside of peak though

[@Gooby12337]

Definitely not worse than working a basic customer service job dealing with literal shitheads all day.... Seems pretty chill to me

[@Terencew101]

I did 240 stops yesterday 100 apartments

[@conormcqregor4393]

How long

[@Terencew101]

@@conormcqregor4393 I’m still working

[@iSeaSicc]

Just got a job with FedEx and just waiting for my start date. I'll be delivering part time with Express. Been in warehouses most of my work history, so this will be something new for me. Hope it goes smooth.

[@Deliverypros]

Once you get comfortable with it I’d love to have you on the vlog

[@iSeaSicc]

The hiring process is taking forever. I start zoom learning next week. Manager said I'll average 45 stops as PT. How long would should it take to deliver that on average? Sched. is supposed to be 9-3pm. @@Deliverypros

[@3218grod]

How long would it take to do 400 stops ?

[@Deliverypros]

Or me? Probably 6-7 hours. But it would be non stop, balls to the walls, jogging from truck to door and back haha the real question is can you even fit 400 stops on your truck?

[@hydrosrage5478]

what are you using to hold your phone to record when you deliver?

[@Deliverypros]

Just a tripod with bendy legs that I can wrap around stuff. It’s like $13 on Amazon

[@stephenkarr9822]

bro, my route is 48 miles one way!!! It'd take me 15hrs to do that many stops. I also have waaaayyyyy to many gravel roads on my route. Keep up the good work dude!

[@pewnayhi]

my route here in NY sucks bc of the long driveways 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

[@Deliverypros]

I hear this a lot. Long driveways blow…. Listen to the intrusive thoughts. Ignore the rules. Drive down the driveways 😂

[@scsback1205]

Sounds like a BC position is about to be offered lol

[@shantellalindsey5183]

Do you think this job good for womens?

[@Deliverypros]

We have women who work at our station. They seem to do fine but they don’t usually last super long. We have two or three who have been around for at least a year

[@Youreuppodcasting]

Me I’ll do it

[@Youreuppodcasting]

I just started fedex

[@SniperKills100]

I’m addicted to delivering fast 💨

[@626playboy1]

EASY WITH NO PICK UPs GTFOH...YOU SHOULD HAVE GONE FOR THE BROKEN RECORD...

[@Deliverypros]

Absolutely not 😂 you couldn’t pay me enough to do 400 stops. And ya dude, my whole life is about making this job pay as much as possible for as little work as possible. Why would I make my job more difficult if I can avoid it? If you’re not trying to make this job easier….. you might be dumb 🤷🏻‍♂️
