The routes I have run lately, there is no way to do 30 per hr. Its too spread out. I will be leaving soon as they are trying to get me to stay through Christmas. Its not as bad as it was the first few weeks, yet I'm a floater and haven't been on one route for a long period. With the right route and some negotiating on pay, I might would do it for awhile longer. But, I now have vitiligo and that makes it tough in the gulf coast heat. Plus I'm older now and racing to make deliveries is tuff on the body. Right now my current contractor pays 140 per day, which is not enough especially with the work load. I do know they will negotiate especially now with peak season they are getting desperate due to people quitting. If you can be done every day by 3 and they pay at least 175 per day then that's not bad. But unless u have the route dialed, then you might be out until 7 and that turns into a minimum wage job and its too much work for minimum wage. Get a route that u like and get done by 1-3 then it can be good, being you are getting at least 175 per day. Only problem where I am is that if you finish early they may have u out helping others with their routes. Idk it has pros and cons like all things but its pretty easy to get hired and start making money.
Give them an ultimatum! Or quit (and do it in a way that keeps you on good terms) and then in two weeks offer to help them out here and there. If they’re desperate, they’ll take you back in any capacity they can
i wasnt on a route like these guys whatsoever stuck on a mall route taking cart after cart inside side doors back doors backing into the garage and much more i was actually saying what the balls after my 10 hour shift working with the trainer.. so hopefully my contractor will allow me to use regular van truck im not the type of dude to be walking everywhere back in forth in the damn shopping center all day
@Marty's 4x4 Up here in Wisconsin, tons of contractors were starting in the range of 175-180 per day even before peak started. Try Indeed, that's how I got in.
What do you do for health insurance for the family and what does it cost you. I tried training for a mail route for $140 a day but found out insurance would be $1,250 per month and I could only go with Bluecross.
Is this the insurance through FedEx or it is separate ? Asking bc if FedEx is telling me the benefits starts the same day & that’s what there taking out my check then I’m not going to take it. So lost !!
@quit your job … also found your videos. You commented on the other post thank you & congratulations on the baby. Many blessings to you & your family .
Honestly my uncle been a driver for 8 years now here in California making about 28 an hour I started working for a warehouse as an orderselector been in two years and I’m already at 28 about to hit 30$ ! And with Benefits . It kinda sucks for the drivers that plan to stay the long run ! It pays well over time tho .
the highest i was able to negotiate a salary was to 240 a day back when i was in Fedex Ground, only lasted a month. After that they brought it back down to 190 a day without an explanation. It was the worst feeling ever ended up quitting a few months later turned in my 2 weeks notice and got a letter of recommendation I was out there.
Lol people that quit FedEx and come back to FedEx are drama queens lol I've seen so many people walk out on the job is funny contractors running after trash employees.. I quit never going back and I made 1500 weekly busting my ass tho
I don’t know how doing what you gotta do to get paid what you’re worth is dramatic, but you do you. My journey was literally, “hey, I’m pretty tired. I think I’m gonna bounce” and then “hey I’ve got some time to work here and there. Y’all need help?” Doesn’t seem that dramatic to me 😂 you making 6 grand a month and then quitting, that sounds dramatic hahaha
Mannn I knew I wasn’t the only one 🫡… rich ppl order all these heavy boxes at the top of the hill or lonngggg driveways and they think we go take it all the way to the doooor😅
@@babyyames LOL if it's a shelf or something so heavy, back right up to the garage and slide it off. BOX says team lift, but here we are doing it ourselves. For what 150 dollars a day no matter how long it takes us. pfft.
@@Deliverypros so they aren’t buying anything it’s for veterans who have served and have the ability to take their time in service and contribute it towards a civilian federal career so they won’t have to do the whole 20 years working for said civilian job to get a pension. So say I did 4 years in the military, I would only have to work 16 years to get that pension and retire if I continue to work for a federal company. I heard some positions in FedEx provide that. I just can’t find if delivery drivers who are veterans get that too
@@Ari-rw9hv so I know it’s called “federal express” but ground drivers aren’t federal employees because we work for third party companies. The company I worked for when I started was “stormbreaker delivery.” I’ve never actually worked for FedEx itself
@@codenamenova6831 yup! I quit for about a month and a half to personal train full time. But if you do it right, you can make a solid income on low hours training. So I offered to work here and there for the contractor I quit for to fill that extra time and make some extra money. After I moved all my personal training clients to online I told my contractor I could work a consistent short route. That evolved into the route I’m on now that you see in this video

FedEx is cool by how flexible it is compared to other jobs. Glad you found something that works for you
It’s the Legend Laos House, when are you gonna give us an update on your journey bro?
@@SteadyFuturesCapital haha early december. Have some videos ready that I think you'll like! Promise!
@@LaosHouse Laos funny thing I just came from watching your videos
When it comes to apartments and it’s upstairs & it’s heavy I usually write a note & leave it on the stairs.
Ya, I recently learned my new boss is cool with that. The old one was not 😬

Good for you man keep pushing forward!! From sub 125
sub 69 is where it is really at 😎💪🏻
I'm going to start usps soon, i've heard a lot of stories but i'll try to stick with it at least a year
Hows it goin so far
@@savagedick1462 they still never got back to me 😂😂😂 i did the fingerprints thing and they just never called me back, gonna be starting fedex soon
Worked but only made $130 a day with no benefits. Too much work and not enough pay so I quit. Going to usps now.
@Marty's 4x4 Up here in Wisconsin, tons of contractors were starting in the range of 175-180 per day even before peak started. Try Indeed, that's how I got in.
@Marty's 4x4 really I’m in Texas Dallas and most pay you here 150-160 I switch to another contractor within a month and they will start me at 180
Damn bro. I get paid 130$ to just deliver FedEx packages around a mall. Takes me about 3-4 hours. Most drivers around here make at least 160$
Damn that’s criminal my contract pays $24hr you’d make more being a jumper/helper with my contractor even. It’s $140day as a jumper.
10:10 holy mackerel somebody get that old girl some new plugs!

We are with US health group. It’s like $3-400 a month or something like that

UPS has really good insurance, nothing taken out of your paycheck
can you elaborate how much you negotiated on?
im currently in your shoes
They were offering $170 day rate. I said I’d do it for $200. We settled on $190 with bonuses based on volume
biggest down side is not getting benefits with Fedex
True that!
Honestly my uncle been a driver for 8 years now here in California making about 28 an hour I started working for a warehouse as an orderselector been in two years and I’m already at 28 about to hit 30$ ! And with Benefits . It kinda sucks for the drivers that plan to stay the long run ! It pays well over time tho .
My uncle always told me tho if we would’ve done it differently he would’ve gone express cuz the express drivers get benefits
@@davidholloway9349 ya, so the trade off there is flexibility. Flexibility is one of the main reasons I’ve stuck with ground so far

So does FedEx trucks ever get stopped by the IRS or the FBI
Mine hasn’t. And I’ve transported A LOT of gun stuff 😂
Lol people that quit FedEx and come back to FedEx are drama queens lol I've seen so many people walk out on the job is funny contractors running after trash employees.. I quit never going back and I made 1500 weekly busting my ass tho

Does FedEx have military buy back program??
What are they buying back?
@@Deliverypros so they aren’t buying anything it’s for veterans who have served and have the ability to take their time in service and contribute it towards a civilian federal career so they won’t have to do the whole 20 years working for said civilian job to get a pension.

Guy has a safe, that's where all the stolen guns and ammo are stored
If I was stealing from the gun stores I deliver to and pickup from I’d need more than one and much bigger safes 😂
Brooo....that truck tho!!! 🤣🚽🤣
Now they’ve got some other poor idiot driving that crap wagon 😂
Your name is “quit you’re job “…yet you haven’t even put your job.
Did you watch the whole video? 😂 I did quit my job, then came back voluntarily on my terms, and now the job is what I want it to be.
Waiiiit I’m lost here I’m 20 and I’m really interested to be a fed ex driver as soon as I turn 21. Did you quit and returned?
What were the terms 👀
