pathetic i make more as a owner operator

[@GBabyLifestyle]

Continue the pay video, i work for Pepsi in Tuscaloosa AL but i average around 1400-1500 gross I’m a route driver.. that’s crazy you guys get paid 28$ an hour as support.. they pay our support guys $18.50 😭

[@LS2U]

From my understanding they used to have support workers. I’ve heard they might hire some in the future but for now we all can be support. Including managers, salesmen, reset team, and other people I’ve seen that I don’t know what they do. Although I don’t believe that’s normal just for emergency situations. I was also surprised to find not all pepsi locations pay the same. Also the way things operate from plant to plant might be different too. Overall I’m very fortunate and blessed

[@jamesguest4741]

28 an hour is not high right?

[@GBabyLifestyle]

@@jamesguest4741 yeah that’s great lol

[@davidwatson1268]

I can relate to your hours because i did milk delivery for 22 years but hang in there until something else better comes along because route sales jobs can put a toll on your body.

These taxes is crazy tnx for putting your business out there like that alotta insight

[@marleniceciliavallecillo8312]

We really appreciate it. Thanks for the information.

[@Dave.T93]

I thought for overtime the numbers should be different. It should be 8 hours paid at a rate of 14.43 + 28.86 = 43.29. What should have been $346.32 for working 8 hours over 40 in one week.

[@LS2U]

That’s what it is they just separate the half time. Basically the whole 48 is calculated at the 28.85 then the 8hrs OT half time is added to it. That’s just the way they break it down but it’s all the same.

[@Supernothando]

Thank you for sharing! Good luck with everything. 💛

[@reddwoulard61]

Be careful with your back. One wrong move can be very bad for the remainder of your life, especially when you are in a hurry. Ask me how I know. I used to run soft drinks.

[@LS2U]

Trust me when I say, I know the feeling. I haven’t talked about it yet but I will soon in a video. I’m literally not built for this, but I’m a man on a mission.

[@yovizx]

Good work!

[@g8marc]

Im a merch for Pepsi n I get 27.30 an hour, this is basically how my stubs look lol

[@ShanntahnPininchula]

Fantastic and good for you! I would like to get on with Pepsi somewhere but I have less than 3 months Class A experience. And you are right, thank you Heavenly Father! Edit: Please help but it looks like you are being paid Chinese overtime is that right? You are only getting paid half of your normal hourly wage after 40 hours or am I reading this wrong?

[@LS2U]

Pepsi hires drivers without experience like myself. You should be good to apply. For the OT they just break it down in a weird way. Basically they calculate your full hours for the week at regular pay including the OT hours. Then they add the half time separately. It adds up the same just broken down differently

[@ShanntahnPininchula]

@@LS2U Ok thank you for the clarification. I just applied for a driver position just earlier today. We appreciate channels such as yours more than you know. Stay safe and blessed!

[@arosadoar]

Congrats bro !! What’s the pay per hour at Pepsi ?

[@LS2U]

It's depends on your location

[@Mr.man712]

Does pepsi hire people with CDL permits in GA? I applied with drive for pepsi website few days ago but haven't heard back, im prob gonna do schooling first tho

[@LS2U]

I’m pretty sure they have a program to help you get your license. From what I heard from some of the other new hires it can take weeks to months for them to reach out. Also things seem to be slowing down now. What I would recommend is trying to find someone to speak to in person

[@sev812]

On average how many miles do you drive in a day and how much of it is Town/City driving or do you drive more Freeway/Highway ?

[@LS2U]

That’s a great question. From the warehouse to our first stop can be anywhere from about 1 - 50 miles. In between stops can be anything from less than a mile to 30 or so miles. It all depends on the route and how it’s routed. At times you’ll drive past a stop that’s later in the route. As for city vs highway miles that also depends on the route. If your stops are close to the warehouse you probably won’t be on the highway that much. Also some areas don’t have immediate access to the freeway. So you’ll mostly be driving through backroads. Tennessee is a very interesting place to drive trucks in. A lot of roads are kinda questionable. The more direct answer to your question is, on the manifest it tells you the total miles for the route. I’ve seen anywhere from 35 - 185. Most of the highway miles is usually from the warehouse to the first stop. Plus back to the warehouse at the end of the day.

[@viray8659]

How long did you wait to get the congratulation letter that you got hired after your interview??

[@LS2U]

For me it all happened really fast. I got the hired email about an hour after the interview. Did most of the paperwork and tests the same day. Then started within 1 - 2 weeks

[@johndonovan7018]

but you are not just driving. you are delivering.. loading, unloading.. right. its not point to point just driving warehouse to warehouse. just to clarify. the trucks that stock stores and other end point retail. depending where you are that can be a nightmare of a job. ps. throw me a few cases of pepsi.. heh

[@LS2U]

Absolutely, there are endless frustrating aspects of our job but we all come back next week after payday. Lol I got you as long as I don’t gotta stock it

[@davidwatson1268]

Yeah, I think you are doing route sales delivery delivering to Dollar General, Family Dollar, chain convenience stores, mom & pop stores but you gotta put that product on the shelves tho. If you had a route that delivers to the big chain grocery stores plus Walmarts, Targets, Sam's Clubs, Costco, BJ's etc all you have to do is drop the product off & get it checked in but the merchandisers put that product up. I think some trucks might have enough orders on the truck for about 3 grocery stores then they go back to get another load to deliver to 3 more stores.

[@johndonovan7018]

@@davidwatson1268 interesting. i have not seen any of them stock shelves ever and ive seen a lot of deliveries (im out at night a lot so i always run into supply trucks). might be a regional thing but ive never seen them do that. just wheel it off the truck into a predetermined location out back and then whoever manages the store at the time takes over on their schedule. shell bp qt rt etc stations which are smaller than a dollar for sure

[@Vision21502]

Did Pepsi require you to have 1 year verifiable tractor-trailer experience?

[@LS2U]

Nope I had 0

[@vickiefrancis6789]

Hello! what type of physical and written test does Pepsi Co require in order to get hired.

[@LS2U]

During orientation we just watched some videos. Then answered some questions based on what we learned. For physical testing they might just look at you and say “yeah you can do this job”. If they do decide to test you they’ll probably have you move some cases in the warehouse. Overall I wouldn’t stress it but it depends on the management there.

[@theuglytruth4303]

@@norrrlife You're welcome

[@NotUp2Much]

@@theuglytruth4303 Depends on the position. My brother is also a truck driver and works for pepsi. If you've been there a few years and have a dedicated route, then you'll work longer hours and get paid more. New guys do routes that the older guys can't get to at the moment, and they also work less hours (4 ten hour shifts when my brother started).

[@LS2U]

I think the location you work for, seniority, availability, time of year, and management are major factors. For example in the beginning I was working 4 days while training. Then Saturday became an option so I started working 5 days till now. Recently hours are being cut so i'm back to 4 but I can finesse 3, which I did this week. I did 6 days maybe one week but that was purely by choice and optional. Overall you have to get a good understanding of the work environment you're in and make it work for you.

You know that’s a very interesting question. I think the comments speak for themselves. The people spoke and I answered. Kinda symbolic considering the channel name. I never thought about it that way but in a way this channel will be my testimony.
