UPS Drivers make an average of 70k a year with a pretty good benefits package. Its a pretty based job besides the whole manual labor thing.

The big hub in MD is in burtonsville. You’ll have to work in the hub first to make your way up to package driver.

>t. Based part time supervisor

>>24646025
70k lol
A year
LOL

>>24645985
Honestly they make more than doctors in their lifetime and mostly just listen to music all day. Imagine going to school for 12 years and having to tell someone their daughter is dead.

With no debts, it’s a pretty good salary to be honest. Also the benefits they get when leaving allows them to retire. My grandma still gets huge pension checks every month to this day, even thought my grandfather died 25 years ago.

>>24646208
Imagine if you and your wife worked as USPS drivers and made some sound investments. That’s a mortgage on a house in 3 years and a house in about 8 max. I would be a USPS driver in a second.

Was thinking about doing this for Amazon, they're hiring in my area.

>>24646284
>Imagine if you and your wife worked as USPS drivers
you'd never see eachother

>>24646286
Doing it for Amazon is a waste. You don’t get nearly as good of a salary and basically zero benefits. Also you have to carry heavy ass packages.

Don’t even think about working for Amazon. Get a computer science degree or something. Although I’m tired of staring at screens.

>>24646248
You meet a woman, she asks “what do you do for a living?” You say “I deliver packages for U...” she turns her head to the another random guy who happens to be a doctor

>>24646220
Are you retarded?

>>24646311
At first, but usually it works in a hierarchy system. New workers get heavy routes. By the end of it all you really just deliver to a small number of houses as with seniority you get the best routes. You just have to stick with it and not fuck up too bad and you make it.

Not very many jobs with that level of security around.

I’m over 6’ tall, fairly fit, good face have invested in crypto, have plenty of friends, and have an 8” penis. I have a nice rent controller apartment in a desireable location — no shortage of women who come up to me. Spoiler: I’m gay

>>24646286
Amazon drivers are considerer sub-contractors and only make about $14 an hour.
I currently work as a UPS seasonal helper and l make the same amount and all l have to do is take the package that the driver gives me and put it on their front door lol

BARK BARK BARK

FUCKING DOG

Yesterday I saw UPS, USPS, Amazon, Fedex trucks all showed up at my building at the same exact time and were fighting for parking. I wonder if I hate each other? How can I profit from this, unironically?

>>24646369
>my back is getting tight

>>24646838
Amazon and USPS arent in the fight, its mostly UPS and Fedex.

I had a friend who used to have a business where they had to ship shit and uses to use UPS. He transferred to FedEx and UPS emailed him saying they detected a loss in revenue in the Zip Code and gave him shipping rates that absolutely annihilated Fedex's just to get him back as a client.

>>24646208
that's pretty good if you live outside of nigger shithole cities. also the work is probably easier outside of cities and suburban areas, more dead time between houses and less stop and go, jumping in and jumping out of your truck every block.

>>24645985
It's better than working from bed you cumbelly degenerate

>>24646838
I used to work for UPS and the fedex rivalry is real. Fuck them. FedEx hires excons to drive their trucks when UPS drivers worked their way up from the bottom

>>24645985
this is a proud ARPA holder when he finds out about the China partnership. He just realized that his bags (held through bella.fi) might allow him to quit driving that beautiful car

>>24646332
Cope

>>24646025
I did it for a while. Money isn't horrible but the job sucks. You will hate your life and be sore and stressed every day. I'd rather make 20k less and not hate my life

I thought this was Kevin James

>>24647603
I don't think there's anything worse than web development. Considering giving up my code monkey job to become a UPS driver.

>>24647997
Grass is always greener friend, I think you’ll be fine though since you want to do it. My thoughts are things can’t be too bad if people can do it for 30 years. You’ve got a lot of bitches tho so who knows.

UPS is unironically a great job, the starting pay and bennies are pretty good. I also think they get an option to buy stock at a discount each quarter as a benny too

>>24647083

>>24647997
funny, i work in accounting and i'm trying to teach myself web development (want to focus more on back end to get away from niggers and trannies.)

This job seems comfy as long as it’s not in a shithole city

Do UPS drivers ‘have sex’ with some of the females they deliver to? Like, in the pornos?

>>24647997
ups makes you content with life and you dont really go anywhere to be honest
but you are not sitting all day like a code monkey

>>24647997
Funny that you mention that because I used to be a UPS driver and now i'm a web developer lol. trust me dude. development is soooo much better

>>24648689
fuck off were full. Also theres trannys on the back end too

>>24646208
to drive boxes around? what do you think they should make, 200k?

>>24648767
for the most part no. you do get flirts though

>>24648926

nah

Are there bots on /biz/ now? Coming back from a hiatus.

>>24649284
Yep. At least 2-3 every thread.
Either bots or 5 cent per post mechanical turk pajeets.

Don't know about anywhere else but in the UK UPS is without a doubt the worst parcel delivery company (to use, I mean. don't know about work for). Every time someone has sent me something UPS it has failed to arrive for several days after the tracker says it will. No other company comes close for being so consistently shit. And it's not just my bad luck; the online reviews are terrible. Everyone has the same issues with them. WTF is with that?

I work for UPS and will make $100k this year. Easy.

Imagine driving one of these and breathing in exhaust fumes all day long because your door is stuck open

The profession of private detectives is becoming more popular nowadays. That’s why after the successful pre-sale the GTX price can grow x10!

>>24649380
Yea but you have to show up to that depressing ass hub every morning. Deal with drug addict loaders. Bust your ass for 9 hours a day at least

>>24649422
I delivered for 3 years, that did suck. I moved up to feeder, driving the big rigs. Incredibly easy job, especially after slinging packages for a few years.

>>24649411
You don't have time to close your door so you will

>>24645985
UPS is pretty good to work for. Unions and benefits. How do you think this fat ass is working there? It’s an easy good paying job. If you want to make fun of package delivery drivers at least use amazon where they get paid shit and forced into deathly situations with no real benefit or care for their well-being.

>>24646940
This also happened at my brothers business. We ship like 50-100 packages a day. We were about switch but ups gave us amazing deals and FREE supplies. Like tens of thousands of dollars in free boxes, labels, tape, etc.
overall ups SUCKS major dick. Constantly losing packages and damages. They’ve lost 4 giant palleted freights. 120x80 over 300 pounds each. And they lost them! How the fuck do you lose them??? Then told us because of covid they won’t be reimbursing us right away. FUCK ups.

>>24649393
But I don't care, cause all I wanna do

>>24646342
he's mostly right, there's a chart out there which basically shows it takes like 30 years of work before doctors net worth surpasses UPS driver due to all the expense and time wasted schooling. So yeah, a lot of doctors will not make it. Some will but many burn out before actually making more money than a UPS driver would. someone else can past the chart, I don;t feel like looking for it,

>>24646468
Why does that job even exist? Does it save much time?

>>24649422
This. My friend works for ups and sends photos of his truck and they’re disorderly stacked to the brim with packages. Seems pretty stressful desu.

>>24649442
I never drove feeder but yea seems like its one of the better positions. I hate UPS culture though desu. Everybody is like a trailer trash cigarette smoking high school dropout

>>24649482
Omg yeah. Having a second person would literally cut the day in half.

>>24649491
Yea they pack your truck they dont give a shit if it's in order or if you can actually move in the truck. Which is against union regulations but they don't care

here's the link on net income DR vs UPS, I was off a little, still...
https://graphaday.blogspot.com/2010/04/doctor-salary-vs-ups-driver.html

I worked for UPS in college loading the trucks. A lot of guys who had their own businesses would work part time for the health insurance. It wouldn't be a bad career for someone who didn't want to go to college or work in a cubicle their whole lives. The drivers work long hours and have to deal with a lot of management bullshit.

>>24649491
>>24649530
A lot of loaders are shitty people. They come into work and you can still smell the alcohol on them, but a lot of the drivers have a diva attitude with a better than everyone else complex. They predetermine how many packages are going on that truck and there's nothing you can do but cram it in there. I've had recliners, those toy cars kids drive around, kayaks and all sorts of shit. They never want to turn the loading belt off either. I was stuck waist deep unable to move in boxes more than once.

>>24649904
Yup exactly this. Half the loaders are high or drunk at 4 in the morning. And drivers are fucking wack. I worked pre load and was a supervisor. Absolute terrible place to work, no regard for safety.

UPS female driver attacked by rabid dog!

>NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>24645985
Maybe the third party contractors a la FedEx as that's one step above slave labor, but UPS is a fantastic gig. I know lots of people with 15+ years with the company, the higher seniority guys easily make $100 per hour for overtime during holidays.

>>24646353
>New workers get heavy routes. By the end of it all you really just deliver to a small number of houses as with seniority you get the best routes. You just have to stick with it and not fuck up too bad and you make it.

Ya. It looks and sounds pretty good for people that frankly couldn't cut it in a merit-based skill and just want to show up and gain seniority

Nothing wrong with that either, as the former involves good luck, genetics, and the right path

>>24645985
Drive around listening to music, physical activity jumping in and out of a truck. Can engage in conversation with customers, but only if you want you, shorts in the summer. Sounds pretty based.

>>24646987
you're not making 70k if you live outside of nigger shithole cities

>>24651585
The top rate hourly pay (after 4 years full time) is roughly the same nation wide. $37-$39 an hour. Time and a half any time over 8 hours per day.

>>24651585
>being this obtuse
i work a route job and will make 70k this year. a couple co workers are already over 100k. live in the middle of fucking no where.

>>24651944
is this real lmfao

>>24651944
To be fair you can't get full time UPS driver jobs right out of High School. That position has a very long wait list and you have to be a package handler or helper peasant for ~3-10 years (also sucking up to managers) before you can ever touch the wheel.

>>24651979
what a bluepilled thread. drivers are like cells in the body delivering nutrients. you dont hate your cells do you? you probably do which is why you're constantly raging.

>>24651995
> work in the netherlands for 40k a year
>this is consider an above the mean salary. and a lot of money

I couldn't imagine being a driver in the ghetto

>>24646208
they also work 10 hour days 6 days a week minimum

>>24653281
It’s pretty bad... I got robbed once, the worst part is just trying to explain simple things to these people.

>>24649478
Is cash my check and drive right home to you

>>24652630
This is an urban legend. I was a loader for like a month and heard they were hiring drivers and applied and got it.

>>24655478
I think technically by law, or some shit like that, they have to have like 10% of their drivers off the street. The rest will be union. So it’s not unlikely you got it.

After I got my first job that paid decent, 75k and bonus for a fairly easy and creative time sitting at a desk and now sitting comfy as fuck at home, seeing people older than me in worse wages positions started to make me sad. Like when the pizza guy in in his 40s. But now I kind of hate the wagie. Most of them out spend their wages. They are pay pigs. Fuck normies.

>>24656668
This is only true if you aren't their average applicant. I worked there for holiday cash during college and they basically begged me to stay as I was a normal human of normal intelligence, not addicted to alcohol or with a criminal record. That's a rare unicorn for UPS

>>24657001
I’m agreeing with you, got damn no wonder you’re a driver. I said 10% is allocated, so yes it’s a myth you have to work there for 3-10 years. Fuckin nigger

>>24655478
I was a union UPS loader and I applied and got hired as a driver right away no wait list. There is no wait list just apply before the holiday rush

>>24657277
UPS spreads that rumor to make it seem like everyone wants to be a driver. Nobody even really wants to do it. And like another anon said. it's all alcoholics and druggies

>>24658190
They don't even drug test their package car drivers because they would lose 90 percent of them
