    Bro you’re going to put your back out if you keep lifting like that. Use the dolly and take your time. No job is worth damaging your back and ruining your health. FedEx won’t care if you injure yourself and you end up on medical disability from an injury.

      You have a great point. However, …possibly, someone finds this job fulfilling as a purpose beyond themselves by serving their community. Who doesn’t anxiously wait for their package? Literally, it’s true what they say…If trucking stops, everything stops. That’s no exaggeration and the truth is that all of us (myself included) take these folks/services for granted in no time flat. Additionally, compare the pay, conditions, and quality of life to 90 some percent of the rest of the world. That’s the perception I have earned in my deployments/military career.

      The pictures are useless in finding a package that has been delivered to the wrong address and the photo consists of your package on a concrete slab taken from about a foot away, which is what happens in our area. The good thing is I get to know who all and I do mean all my neighbors are when I get their packages.

    Ive done this job about 5 years now. While FE consistently makes life exponetially more difficult for contractors and, in turn, drivers- I still mostly enjoy the solitude and adventure aspect.
    My breaking point will likely be the express integration as inefficency drives me nuts and driving the route over and over to meet times just bores and aggravates me.
    That and the impending requirement for us to run the route as DRO directs. The enjoyment factor is whittled away just a bit every year.

    I know this life 😅 I very rarely use the dolly, even for heavy stuff I’m usually carrying it. It’s pretty smooth overall. Unmanifested packages was a on going problem when I first started so I started scanning every package that I could at the warehouse before I take off. The best way to make your day quicker is to use the map on the scanner and get about 10-15 stops ready in advance so you can just grab & go.

    4:52 LoL. Impressive. ... This is why I love those customized cargo vans, by Utilimaster or I believe Rockport is another one that makes them. They turn nice cargo vans into walk-in box truck-like things, so the cab is super nice - which includes WORKING A/C - what a concept - and they even make the bulkhead door and walk-in door to have easy access. You can literally push a button and the bulkhead door opens. I hear the walk-in doors on the newest vans are also opened with a button, but I have not driven one of those. And when you are doing a lot of stops in one neighborhood, you can just leave the walk-in door (or bulkhead door) open the whole time for running in and out, back to the seat and going. Then when you need to cool off, just close it up and blast the A/C. ... granted that a lot of those custom vans don't have as much cargo space as the big step vans, but pretty close! And they can turn a Ford Transit 350 or a Ram Promaster 3500 into a pretty damn big box truck/van.

The main pro i see with Fed Ex is that you dont have to pay for wear and tear and gas like food delivery. And i view it as you're being paid to work out as well. But, I need to find ways to speed up if Im going to increase my hourly and decrease my work day hours.

      Edit: stopped working for them cus the time spent/pay was an insult. Ups went from 41 in 2019 to 49 in 2028 which is only measly 17% gain and factor in taxes it's only 8-9% gain over 9 years aka 1% raise per year when inflation went up like crazy and will continue to do so well beyond 2028.
