I just finished my first day as a package handler. It’s a Side gig for me just to buy shoes and to loose maybe an extra 10 pounds I put on over the summer.What I can say is if you work out at least 3 times a week it’s a breeze... but if you don’t work out...hunny you’re in for a rude awakening. If this girly girl can do it y’all can too 💕
I’m fin to start, it’s will be so easy for me lmaoaoaoaO! And also at my hub, you can become driver in 3 months! LmaoaoaoaO IMA WORK SO FUCKING HARD TO SHOW THEM IM BEYOND BOSS! Y’all don’t have a clue
vamia washington I’m 18 and I workout everyday lifting weights and I’m pretty nervous about the job because mostly everyone says it’s pretty hard on your body . Your like the first that says it’s a breeze , how many hours do you work a day ? Tips ?
TigerGoesRawrr well it’s my third week and most people quit after a day. So if you make it past your first day you’re golden. I do a lot of cardio so it was easy for me to keep a good pace but baby I was sore. Being that you lift weights you may not be as sore as I was, and if you experience any soreness your recovery time should be quick. Only tip I have is lift with your legs. Cus if you’re bending over to pick up boxes your back is going to hurrrrt super bad I think i covered all of your questions feel free to ask more if need be
vamia washington Actually I have a few questions before I get out of her sorry lol but this my first job and I need stick w this whether I like it or not . I don’t wanna lose weight because I’m trying to put on muscle , would I lose my muscle ? orr what’s your experience and should I take gloves or anything extra ? thank you for answering quickly as well and just in general
Andrew Rau forreal, it’s a bitch having you scan each box and load them with that damn scanner on your hand. And then they keep throwing more boxes into trailer quicker than you scan and load and it makes me want to blow my brains out lol
I worked at ups briefly as an auditor. Unloader job is no joke. I have seen men in the dead of winter 25 degrees start their job all bundled up. By the time they reach the end of the 50 foot trailer they are stripped down to T-shirts and the sweat pouring off of them.
Fedex interview next Wednesday, making this job as a side gig/gym to go with my full time 9-5 job. Not being born in a rich family in America is tough man lol
Same here bro that’s why am at ups it’s my side job / gym I sweat a lot am unloading though I get the heavy loads not that bad but it is furshure a good workout
@@92hotcheeto You must be young, or have just started working at a warehouse, just wait a few years, that shit will get to you. I see the people that have been working at a warehouse for 30 plus years, they all have some physical problem, limps, messed up backs, hips, etc, they are all alcoholics and most are obese and insane.
Matthew Avila there’s an adjustable warehouse fan at each truck blowing air inside the truck, otherwise people will pass out lmao there won’t be any heater for winter, you’ll have to rely on a coat or a warm jacket, but the work is rapid and fast pace, so I doubt you’ll get too cold!
THIS JOB IS BRUTAL. DID IT FOR SEASONAL AND I MUST SAY IT IS NOT WORTH BREAKING YOUR BODY DOWN JUST TO GET BENEFITS AFTER YOU HAVE ALREADY DAMAGED PARTS OF YOUR BODY. AND THEY MESS UP ON YOUR CHECKS. KUDOS TO THOSE WHO GOT FAR IN THE COMPANY THOUGH
All you loaders have it easy try being an everyday unloader, I mean a good one who does every truck in an hour and being able to hang out the end where the belts don’t reach lol. Yes loading is hard but it’s especially easy for those who load the short trucks (anything shorter then 53 footers)
I appreciate the hardwork you all do that is unseen by the masses. If it weren't for you all,others wouldn't know what to do or know how to keep things up and going. Often you all have jobs that break backs and cause much depression and under appreciation. There are many of us wives who do appreciate the sacrifices of their husbands boyfriends or children's father's, fathers themselves. When you think you can't press on another day,you can with God's help. Better days are coming.
This looks like paradise bro. I’m working as loader for UPS in Germany and their facility here sucks. You have to scan the boxes urself b4 putting them in the trailer and the boxes always stuck on the belt so u need to fix it urself. It’s like hell at peak season
I’m starting my 3rd job just this week. (I’m in orientation/my first few days now). So I’m trying to familiarize myself with more videos of what I’m going to expect to be doing.
If y'all think he's working hard don't apply to UPS or FedEx. At the pace he's moving the walls should be perfect. You should try using your load stand for its purpose instead of proping your phone on it.
Shoot, try doing it in AZ. Warehouse ain't for everyone, including myself. But it pays my bills so I gotta discipline the shit outta myself and suck it up as it's the easiest job to find out here.
Ill take your job if you don't want it. I been seasonal doing every position and I keep seeing them hire relatives and friends of full timers while overlooking better qualified and highly motivated individuals. Sick of this shit. I hope this interview with Fed Ex goes through.
I do this everyday, 6 days a week, good money. And trust me this isn't high, I have to use a safety step to stack it higher. Some trucks have limits but others, you have to stack up to the roof if you want.
Bro our warehouse has rollers that we have to manually put into each truck and pickup every package off the floor. This is luxury living getting those packages delivered waste high for you.
I did this job and I quit in the second week! I injury my shoulder so bad…..they don’t even care! I saw also when the supervisor lady switch trailers with another worker to give me the heavy items one! I was like WTF!
Bro i just started im like 2 weeks in loading up metros and i noticed the same ... im on a light truck and get switched to a packed one that someone just eft
&* hey &*, I’m bout to start next week, I’m going to be a ups lifer!!!! I’ve really not cared about myself past decade and been working horrible fucking jobs like dishwashing with no benefits! Still a good worker but damn I hate it, The ups near me just hired a BEAST WORKER! Ready to bust my ass and move on up the chain next 31yrs my life!
Mc001Rem002 dude start your own business to provide yourself freedom and fulfillment, as a beast do you really want to work for someone else for 31 years😕
MarqueseDeshawn that’s a dream, that nobody even knows how to do or succeeds at bro... and with my life/ luck it’s not even possible, thanks for the support tho
I used to load (IC load too) and pretty much mastered it before I became a facer at my Fedex ground station. Its honestly not that hard, its just a game of tetris and knowing where to put certain boxes at. But yeah, they banned phones at my station and are still cracking down on people who bring them in. The downside is they dont train people the right way anymore at my station, they have other loaders do the training and they did away with ops managers who would train people. Its evident with who was trained by a ops manager (me) vs someone who wasn't.
Not just knowing where to put certain boxes but also where the barcodes are on certain boxes. Having to flip the boxes up and down and sideways to find the barcode to scan will really slow you down. Once you've learned where the barcodes are on certain boxes your load rate will shoot up tenfold
I know this is old but if you see this how hard was it to get into being a facer? How long did you need to work there? I assume they need more people doing it during peak then right now
@@Shadow-pb1fm At the time, I was well known by the sort manager and on his good side so all I did was ask. At my place, the OPS manager nowadays will pick someone out and the sort manager has to approve. For facers, usually they want veteran package handlers to do it and people who show up on time/are always there. As far as the number of facers, it depends on the station/hub size. I heard one hub needs like 30 ish facers while mine only needs 3 to 4 as a minimum with a max of 7 in total. We run with 7 when we have extra facers or if we are heavy volume wise, otherwise, they risk being pulled down if staffing is low or not as heavy.
WELP i need a part time in the afternoons so im going to go apply soon. Im 19 and have a full time job 6am-2pm assembly(40hrs minimum) usually 50 hrs per week. Need something on the side. So ya il keep you guys updated 😁👍
Once you work there you realize that you should never ship anything that can break easily or has value. My favorite UPS loading stories: 1. Box broke open in my arms and I picked up a vacuum sealed bag that fell out. I looked at what was inside the vacuum sealed bag and it was a dead cat. 2. Box broke open on the high conveyor and our high pick sent the contents inside the box to every trailer he could. I was laughing my ass off when like 3 dildos came sliding down the chute. 3. I found a package addressed to my high school teacher. I worked at a hub 80 miles away from my high school. Wish I had a sharpie on me at the time.
Springfield Mo is nothing like this when stacking we dont have a power belt just old dented rollers and we are expected to stack a package every .5 seconds being between 30 and 150 lbs this looks like a dream tbh.
This is the 3rd largest UPS hub in the world next to the one in Germany, that being said ours is going to be heavily invested, and j highly doubt y'all taking heavy loads
I did this at an Amazon cross dock and I was making $18/hr overnight. Except on days stuff would be moving very very fast or very slow to the point that you could just stand around and do nothing. Wouldn't recommend it thought because chances are you'll end up at a fulfillment center.
I’m actually looking to apply at FedEx, as I have a lot of family members to take care of and my business isn’t cutting it no more. Do you have to sort the packages or do u just take the packages on/off the trucks?
ENTREPRENEURISM Thank you! What else does the job consist of besides loading/unloading? :) I don’t mind lifting boxes just wanna know what the job is in more detail :)
@@AKWASHERE2015 in these Warehouses you'll always be moving something, anything other than that is for the higher ups and what they do is just make sure stuff is being moved, its a very fast paced environment and you will be expected to work hard since they're demand doesn't allow breaks
Depends on what you want to do. I load......which basically means I'm in a giant ass semi truck with a scanner. You scan the box, stack it and repeat as quickly as humanly possible. I've tried working the belt and sorting crap but I get motion sickness and after about 10 minutes of staring down at that moving belt I'm ready to puke
Ups is not a hard job. If you have the will power and want good benefits and have a good foundation behind you that will support you. You will go far. Its just getting your body use to the work and being use to moving. I have been 5 years and still going. I am a witness and to if you work you get rewarded and I have gotten several employee of the month shirts and other things. You just have to have the will to want to work.
i start soon 14/hr im tryna keep this job for a few months just so i can get shit i want because i heard the checks are about 300 every week and i can work with that
Update: just quit yesterday because of better job opportunity but for anybody who’s starting this job or applying to it..... just know this job CAN be extremely fast paced and tiring ... don’t go in thinking it’s easy or something you can do to pay the bills ... this job is basically a side hustle coming home with $200+ every week ... Good luck‼️
Vegito LoS Can I ask, is the pay and benefits worth it? I recently saw a shift open near me for $26 dollars an hour part time, Working from the 3:30am-7:30am. It says they are flexible with school and have a school program. Have u heard anything about that?
@@hadassahlarkin894 yes it's worth it especially when you're going back to school. They pay for most of your schooling so it's like free money and a free workout
Vegito LoS So When Your Eligible For School Benefits, Do You Have To Pay Everything Up Front Like Your Classes, Books, Tuition etc.. Then When All Of Dat Is Due, UPS Pays It All Back ? If Yes, Then How Is That Free
This is so easy compared to fed ex loading we have rollers we have to push the packages down ourselves I work at a station where the packages fly down onto the rollers at about 15 mph+ very heavy packages mostly wine and we have to scan them with 20 year old scanners
Yep. I work for FedEx also. The only good thing I have to look forward to when I go in is hoping I get a truck with a belly. My load rate is always over 600 when I have that type of truck. But when you have the truck with the standing type rollers boy does it suck.
And the piece of crap scanner will lie and say it's battery power is at 100 percent but 45 mins later it dies when there are a million boxes coming down the shoot at your heaviest moment conveniently. Then you leave to get another and have to wait for it to update and when you come back the boxes are EVERYWHERE but on the rollers. You're trying to clean up the mess scan and stack at the same time while boxes are flying down, smashing into your legs, tripping you.......it's so much fun
So fun and I used to do the morning and load small trucks where I had 5 to do while everyone else had 3 during peak which was insane that's why I switched to night shift.
It's just a shit job not many hours non stop hard labor with one break and they make sure to finish right before we would lunch so they overload us all day
@@Drinqin I'd love to go to the small trucks. I'm on Twilight in the huge trucks. Sometimes he's got me covering 3 at the same time which is ok as long as they're trucks with the belly. I dread coming in, opening up the door and seeing the ones with the standing rollers.........or the belly trucks without the flaps in the back. I know I'm in for a long shift when I get those two types of trucks. I guess I'm a go to guy now because I don't see anyone else covering 3.........if I have a truck with a belly and it has ALL the flaps I can easily do 600 pph.....as long as I have my monster energy drinks lol. I'm obsessed with my load rate and always make sure I pause my scanner while moving from one truck to another or screwing with those damn south shore boxes. Any down time at all and I make sure I pause it
@@20KAYSUBS the package handlers are the guys that scan though right? Is what youre doing package handling or dock work?? Im applying and both positions are available so im looking into both before i choose.
Man your not even scanning so easy. I would have those rollers clean real quick. But it’s understandable your a new hire. Don’t give up bro your body will get used to it!
Thank you! Me too. It's horrible. The scanners are garbage and ALWAYS go out on you at the worst time, like when you have a million boxes coming down the shoot. And by the time you leave, get another one and wait for the piece of shit to update you come back and it's an absolute cluster#$%*...........
I remember this did this for like 4 years then sorted then put my name on the list for package car and been doing that for 21 years 3 1/2 to go and I’m done midnight shift was rough
ENTREPRENEURISM it’s a trap if you don’t have say like a family a house and that kind of responsibility level and no degree your trapped and they know it it’s a job engineered for a person with a need to make as close to 100k with benefits to support a family a single man or woman is going to have to be just a plain hard worker to stay
Man they tell us to scan, then load. Scan, then load. My fastest so far has been about 425 pph, but if we didn’t need to scan the boxes, holy shit I’d be getting nearly double that. If we’re busy or something, they will tell us to just start scanning all the boxes on the roller and have one guy just loading the boxes like you were, without scanning them. Also, we have huge, manual rollers that we need to set brakes and push/pull into and out of the trailer. Missouri
JH Conservative what part of Missouri? I’m really considering it especially if they help with school bills. Do u see many females working there? (I’m a female and just wondered, no offense to anyone!) is the benefits and pay worth it? Do they work with u on ur schedule or are u stuck at what u applied for? The job posting is for a 3:30a-7:30a shift for 17 1/2-20hrs
Hadassah Larkin I’m in st Charles. Right now, I’m a package handler, or a loader. I wouldn’t recommend being a package handler if you’re not reasonable fit, or strong. I do see the occasion female here and there, but it the majority of the workers I see are males. The benefits are extraordinary, if you work there long enough. You should go to your local UPS and at least talk with them. Don’t feel pressured to join just for the benefits though, as it’s an extremely stressful work environment.
I load a frozen food trailer with a extending conveyor belt and our belt does not have a sensor at end. We have two loaders on each side and it is non stop. But we have an E-stop button if we get fisted but our trailer has to hold up to 1900 cases in it to be tight.
Well I'm with fedex and about 2 days after the interview you get an email directing you to complete a background check. Once you've done that the process is quick
Its the same in ups ,u have to scan them first then load them , if u scan a box and it says do not load,make sure u put the box outside the trailer soo the supervisor can take it to the correct trailor
I just stated Monday 9/28/2020 I got my position as black belt scanner/loader the loader seems easy but the scanner part don't really understand I don't know at every ups if it the same but where the belt is at one side is Dallas and other side is Louisville and it switches in Friday the the other side. But what I don't understand how can u tell what packages go where I don't get the IP and IS I know they will tells us how to do it Monday when we actually do more work I just want to know a head of time to get a more understanding. How scanner people know where to put the packages at without looking at the device. They just check the label and they automatically know where to put them and I'm at a center hub and airport warehouse for ups I scan/load packages into cans then the cans go on the airplane
they actually train you for a week straight on the "science of loading" theres actually a legit and effective way to load but at the end of the day you lose those principals when your shoot gets backed up lol
I was cap 2 as well 😭😂 I quit not because it was tiring at all but because it was so damn boring, co workers were shit at doing their part, and management was just not guiding me as a new hire so i was like yea no
Yea I carved “Walmart” into the walls leaving reviving after working cap-2 for 1 1/2 years and being promised the supervisor spot and getting bumped for an ex assistant manager having sway with the store head and needing a job. I hated that job there’s no worse feeling than seeing yourself as a literal piece of the machine
@@marcblaize6346 Ok so it’s not just my one horse town Walmart lol. It probably took 5 years for one of our guys to get the supervisor position and he had a degree. 🥴
Sam Walton, would be turning in his own grave, if he if he saw the state of the Walmart I use to work for. Shelves empty as shit, limited products to be sold, associates so damn lazy
Fatigued?? You better believe it. But I work for FedEx and my lower back hurts so bad after 10 hours hunched over scanning boxes. Its constant hunching over and scanning then stacking, then hunching over again. Your lower back is in agony after 10 hours of that and yeah you're fatigued......but I'm also 42
I'mma start next week Monday. I been working at McDonald's for a year now. Always working the hardest their and tired of getting 15 hours a week got a car to pay for now so taking that 11-4 night shift. I'm down for hard working honestly so I'll see how this go and keep y'all updated
"They keep coming, they're going to keep coming" man do i know what you mean. I worked at a warehouse and was a loader and this exactly how it was. No phones or mp3 players. If loaders built walls like yours it was an instant fire though. The wall had to be completely straight with no gaps between them all the way to the ceiling.
Hey man just a few pointers. I was a loader for two years. My highest PPH is 1800. Absolutely brutal, could only handle it with a few energy drinks in me lol... But definitely use the load stand, I know that fucker can get in the way but believe me your shoulders will be thanking you.. I got promoted to an Outbound supervisor a few months ago.. Had a meeting where I guy got into serious trouble for taking pictures / recording inside the facility. Just be careful man.... Also try to focus on T’s.. I can see your walls are getting there but try to work on that... How far along are you in your new hire packet?
Allow me to clarify.. This was during peak season, by no means was holding down 1800 flow pretty by any means. My load wasn’t flowing 1800 the entire night. But for a short period of time, it was.. When I was a loader I would usually load about 3-4 thousand a day. During peak season, I would load about 6-7 thousand. Our building is completely automated so I didn’t have to scan any packages.
As a fellow loader, dude, you could 110% get fired for this. Filming of any packages is apparently grounds for “immediate termination”
No one gives a shit dude

Awesome video, man. It's nice to see what the public eye can't see. I appreciate how you didn't add music to the video. Cheers!
I did this job and I quit in the second week! I injury my shoulder so bad…..they don’t even care! I saw also when the supervisor lady switch trailers with another worker to give me the heavy items one! I was like WTF!
its a tough job no doubt those who say otherwise are most likely filled with ego
Then why you apply known you cannot carry more than 70 lbs
Bro i just started im like 2 weeks in loading up metros and i noticed the same ... im on a light truck and get switched to a packed one that someone just eft
I used to do this for about a year till I moved up positions but loading trucks is easy ass work
andreww2111 there’s nothing easy about loading these trucks or really any job at UPS, fuck you!
I agree Andrew, i have a job right now that makes me miss building walls
&* hey &*, I’m bout to start next week, I’m going to be a ups lifer!!!! I’ve really not cared about myself past decade and been working horrible fucking jobs like dishwashing with no benefits! Still a good worker but damn I hate it, The ups near me just hired a BEAST WORKER! Ready to bust my ass and move on up the chain next 31yrs my life!
Mc001Rem002 dude start your own business to provide yourself freedom and fulfillment, as a beast do you really want to work for someone else for 31 years😕
MarqueseDeshawn that’s a dream, that nobody even knows how to do or succeeds at bro... and with my life/ luck it’s not even possible, thanks for the support tho
I used to load (IC load too) and pretty much mastered it before I became a facer at my Fedex ground station. Its honestly not that hard, its just a game of tetris and knowing where to put certain boxes at. But yeah, they banned phones at my station and are still cracking down on people who bring them in. The downside is they dont train people the right way anymore at my station, they have other loaders do the training and they did away with ops managers who would train people. Its evident with who was trained by a ops manager (me) vs someone who wasn't.
Not just knowing where to put certain boxes but also where the barcodes are on certain boxes. Having to flip the boxes up and down and sideways to find the barcode to scan will really slow you down. Once you've learned where the barcodes are on certain boxes your load rate will shoot up tenfold
I know this is old but if you see this how hard was it to get into being a facer? How long did you need to work there? I assume they need more people doing it during peak then right now
@@Shadow-pb1fm At the time, I was well known by the sort manager and on his good side so all I did was ask. At my place, the OPS manager nowadays will pick someone out and the sort manager has to approve. For facers, usually they want veteran package handlers to do it and people who show up on time/are always there. As far as the number of facers, it depends on the station/hub size. I heard one hub needs like 30 ish facers while mine only needs 3 to 4 as a minimum with a max of 7 in total. We run with 7 when we have extra facers or if we are heavy volume wise, otherwise, they risk being pulled down if staffing is low or not as heavy.
@@mikeyk9725 i appreciate the information man
@@Shadow-pb1fm happy to help!
WELP i need a part time in the afternoons so im going to go apply soon. Im 19 and have a full time job 6am-2pm assembly(40hrs minimum) usually 50 hrs per week. Need something on the side. So ya il keep you guys updated 😁👍
Be ready, working part time at UPS, even If you only work 3 and a half hrs (minimum work schedule) feels like a 12 hours shift.
Get a adderall script you’re gonna need it 😂😂 jk
Once you work there you realize that you should never ship anything that can break easily or has value. My favorite UPS loading stories:
1. Box broke open in my arms and I picked up a vacuum sealed bag that fell out. I looked at what was inside the vacuum sealed bag and it was a dead cat.
2. Box broke open on the high conveyor and our high pick sent the contents inside the box to every trailer he could. I was laughing my ass off when like 3 dildos came sliding down the chute.
3. I found a package addressed to my high school teacher. I worked at a hub 80 miles away from my high school. Wish I had a sharpie on me at the time.
Hilarious 😂

Springfield Mo is nothing like this when stacking we dont have a power belt just old dented rollers and we are expected to stack a package every .5 seconds being between 30 and 150 lbs this looks like a dream tbh.
This is the 3rd largest UPS hub in the world next to the one in Germany, that being said ours is going to be heavily invested, and j highly doubt y'all taking heavy loads
@@20KAYSUBS yours being the 3rd largest could be why we differ better equipment more people
I did this at an Amazon cross dock and I was making $18/hr overnight. Except on days stuff would be moving very very fast or very slow to the point that you could just stand around and do nothing. Wouldn't recommend it thought because chances are you'll end up at a fulfillment center.
They have Amazon fulfillment centers?
I’m actually looking to apply at FedEx, as I have a lot of family members to take care of and my business isn’t cutting it no more. Do you have to sort the packages or do u just take the packages on/off the trucks?
ENTREPRENEURISM Thank you! What else does the job consist of besides loading/unloading? :) I don’t mind lifting boxes just wanna know what the job is in more detail :)
@@AKWASHERE2015 in these Warehouses you'll always be moving something, anything other than that is for the higher ups and what they do is just make sure stuff is being moved, its a very fast paced environment and you will be expected to work hard since they're demand doesn't allow breaks
Depends on what you want to do. I load......which basically means I'm in a giant ass semi truck with a scanner. You scan the box, stack it and repeat as quickly as humanly possible. I've tried working the belt and sorting crap but I get motion sickness and after about 10 minutes of staring down at that moving belt I'm ready to puke
ENTREPRENEURISM wait so you mean this is lower? How? For dock worker position is that ups freight? Looking to go for ups freight.
13 an hour is robbery this job is real tough
UPS had me loading 3 trucks a night. Going to FedEx.
Thats nothing i just started n they have me on 4 metros
I currently work at Walmart unloading the trucks there and applied at ups im looking forward to the workout PT package handler
My question is this job like driving or u have to load the truck.
Ups is not a hard job. If you have the will power and want good benefits and have a good foundation behind you that will support you. You will go far. Its just getting your body use to the work and being use to moving. I have been 5 years and still going. I am a witness and to if you work you get rewarded and I have gotten several employee of the month shirts and other things. You just have to have the will to want to work.
Yeah you get rewarded by helping a newbie load his truck who is off the pace lol
LMAO not a “hard job”🤣
So do you basically do this and somedays you unload as well for the 4hrs and that’s kinda it?
i start soon 14/hr im tryna keep this job for a few months just so i can get shit i want because i heard the checks are about 300 every week and i can work with that
lol
They ain’t working full time then if it’s only 600 every 2 weeks. I work for 10.25 in a kitchen right now and get nearly 650 every 2 weeks
My second week in a Waltmart distribution pain is ass but is good money 💰

Update I almost passed out my first day because I didn’t eat or drink water 😂 but the job is easy once you get used to it
Plus idk why they say no phones cause I see and be on mines
@@KvnAkns yup people have their iPod wireless earphones on too
Update: just quit yesterday because of better job opportunity but for anybody who’s starting this job or applying to it..... just know this job CAN be extremely fast paced and tiring ... don’t go in thinking it’s easy or something you can do to pay the bills ... this job is basically a side hustle coming home with $200+ every week ... Good luck‼️
I'm a unloader in OKC and it is physical but it's not that bad. Yes some of the packages shipped are heavy and big as hell.
Vegito LoS Can I ask, is the pay and benefits worth it? I recently saw a shift open near me for $26 dollars an hour part time, Working from the 3:30am-7:30am. It says they are flexible with school and have a school program. Have u heard anything about that?
@@hadassahlarkin894 yes it's worth it especially when you're going back to school. They pay for most of your schooling so it's like free money and a free workout
Vegito LoS Yo ?
@@3headedgoat187 was the deal my dawg
Vegito LoS So When Your Eligible For School Benefits, Do You Have To Pay Everything Up Front Like Your Classes, Books, Tuition etc.. Then When All Of Dat Is Due, UPS Pays It All Back ? If Yes, Then How Is That Free
Damnn we at least can have our phones and listen to music
This is so easy compared to fed ex loading we have rollers we have to push the packages down ourselves I work at a station where the packages fly down onto the rollers at about 15 mph+ very heavy packages mostly wine and we have to scan them with 20 year old scanners
Yep. I work for FedEx also. The only good thing I have to look forward to when I go in is hoping I get a truck with a belly. My load rate is always over 600 when I have that type of truck. But when you have the truck with the standing type rollers boy does it suck.
And the piece of crap scanner will lie and say it's battery power is at 100 percent but 45 mins later it dies when there are a million boxes coming down the shoot at your heaviest moment conveniently. Then you leave to get another and have to wait for it to update and when you come back the boxes are EVERYWHERE but on the rollers. You're trying to clean up the mess scan and stack at the same time while boxes are flying down, smashing into your legs, tripping you.......it's so much fun
So fun and I used to do the morning and load small trucks where I had 5 to do while everyone else had 3 during peak which was insane that's why I switched to night shift.
It's just a shit job not many hours non stop hard labor with one break and they make sure to finish right before we would lunch so they overload us all day
@@Drinqin I'd love to go to the small trucks. I'm on Twilight in the huge trucks. Sometimes he's got me covering 3 at the same time which is ok as long as they're trucks with the belly. I dread coming in, opening up the door and seeing the ones with the standing rollers.........or the belly trucks without the flaps in the back. I know I'm in for a long shift when I get those two types of trucks. I guess I'm a go to guy now because I don't see anyone else covering 3.........if I have a truck with a belly and it has ALL the flaps I can easily do 600 pph.....as long as I have my monster energy drinks lol. I'm obsessed with my load rate and always make sure I pause my scanner while moving from one truck to another or screwing with those damn south shore boxes. Any down time at all and I make sure I pause it
Possibly the worst job I ever worked at
How so
It's not a job for everyone maybe try working at a icecream shop
Lol
Same but am about to get in it

What happens if you run out of room is there a way to push the belt and after you’re done loading what do you do next? Or u just stay loading?
youre fucked an shit falls over
Bro I’m getting like 23 an hour now
Keep it up
Man your not even scanning so easy. I would have those rollers clean real quick. But it’s understandable your a new hire. Don’t give up bro your body will get used to it!

@@MrCork7 Swear to godddddd. Multibillion dollar company yet these scanners are worse then any price of electronic I've seen

Angel Tv I think online I saw an opening for this at like $17 an hour.
Im confused here. I work at the Orlando hub and we have to scan packages before we load them.
Thank you! Me too. It's horrible. The scanners are garbage and ALWAYS go out on you at the worst time, like when you have a million boxes coming down the shoot. And by the time you leave, get another one and wait for the piece of shit to update you come back and it's an absolute cluster#$%*...........
Andrew Rau ikr! What I usually do is get to work early and find a good scanner and I’ll grab a few batteries for the scanner.
I remember this did this for like 4 years then sorted then put my name on the list for package car and been doing that for 21 years 3 1/2 to go and I’m done midnight shift was rough
im glad you worked that long
ENTREPRENEURISM it’s a trap if you don’t have say like a family a house and that kind of responsibility level and no degree your trapped and they know it it’s a job engineered for a person with a need to make as close to 100k with benefits to support a family a single man or woman is going to have to be just a plain hard worker to stay
Man they tell us to scan, then load. Scan, then load. My fastest so far has been about 425 pph, but if we didn’t need to scan the boxes, holy shit I’d be getting nearly double that. If we’re busy or something, they will tell us to just start scanning all the boxes on the roller and have one guy just loading the boxes like you were, without scanning them. Also, we have huge, manual rollers that we need to set brakes and push/pull into and out of the trailer. Missouri
JH Conservative what part of Missouri? I’m really considering it especially if they help with school bills. Do u see many females working there? (I’m a female and just wondered, no offense to anyone!) is the benefits and pay worth it? Do they work with u on ur schedule or are u stuck at what u applied for? The job posting is for a 3:30a-7:30a shift for 17 1/2-20hrs
Hadassah Larkin I’m in st Charles. Right now, I’m a package handler, or a loader. I wouldn’t recommend being a package handler if you’re not reasonable fit, or strong. I do see the occasion female here and there, but it the majority of the workers I see are males. The benefits are extraordinary, if you work there long enough. You should go to your local UPS and at least talk with them. Don’t feel pressured to join just for the benefits though, as it’s an extremely stressful work environment.
425?? Not bad with a scanner. But do you average that everyday. I'm expected to do 600 an hour......everyday
JH Conservative i just got fired 3 weeks after two years my highest was 780
You don't have to scan em. Lucky you. I could bump my load rate up to 2000 if I DIDN'T HAVE TO SCREW WITH THOSE PIECE OF CRAP SCANNERS LOL
FACTS
I just finished my first week at FedEx loading. Don’t know how long I will last
theres better jobs i had to do this to get by
I load a frozen food trailer with a extending conveyor belt and our belt does not have a sensor at end. We have two loaders on each side and it is non stop. But we have an E-stop button if we get fisted but our trailer has to hold up to 1900 cases in it to be tight.
How was the first day.
When you are a loader, do you scan them before picking up or do you just load/stack them without scanning?
depends what you are loading. We scan and then load
It depends where you’re at, at my place they just have you load
Are there assigned stations? Or you get to pick which station you want to work at?
assigned
I just had interview Tuesday they said they would call me how long does it usually take??
within a week
PSN ItzKota- Aye did you get the job?
Well I'm with fedex and about 2 days after the interview you get an email directing you to complete a background check. Once you've done that the process is quick
This isn’t for the weak!!! Especially when you get that rush with nothing but huge boxes 📦
Your rollers look so much better then ours (Minnesota)

I Hated This Fucking Job So Fucking Bad But I Had Did It For Ah Year FedEx & Ups Is Not A Good Job For Ppl💯💯
Damn at FedEx I have to scan and then load
Its the same in ups ,u have to scan them first then load them , if u scan a box and it says do not load,make sure u put the box outside the trailer soo the supervisor can take it to the correct trailor
I just stated Monday 9/28/2020 I got my position as black belt scanner/loader the loader seems easy but the scanner part don't really understand I don't know at every ups if it the same but where the belt is at one side is Dallas and other side is Louisville and it switches in Friday the the other side. But what I don't understand how can u tell what packages go where I don't get the IP and IS I know they will tells us how to do it Monday when we actually do more work I just want to know a head of time to get a more understanding. How scanner people know where to put the packages at without looking at the device. They just check the label and they automatically know where to put them and I'm at a center hub and airport warehouse for ups I scan/load packages into cans then the cans go on the airplane
it has something to do with zipcodes and dont worry they didn't start off knowing its something you get used to
Do you have to put stuff in order or do you just got to make stuff fit ?
Just make stuff fit
they actually train you for a week straight on the "science of loading" theres actually a legit and effective way to load but at the end of the day you lose those principals when your shoot gets backed up lol
ENTREPRENEURISM oh okay haha thank you !
Ant Robles Malta thankss
Make it fit.........quickly
I work 3 times faster than this guy and the new cocky supervisor is always on my ass

This not fedx that's ups
Do all package handlers have to load trailers at some point or is this a "loading package handler" specific job ?
Nope sometimes you get stuck either loading or unloading
I get assigned to something different everyday but sometimes I would do this.

"They keep coming, they're going to keep coming" man do i know what you mean. I worked at a warehouse and was a loader and this exactly how it was. No phones or mp3 players. If loaders built walls like yours it was an instant fire though. The wall had to be completely straight with no gaps between them all the way to the ceiling.
Hey man just a few pointers. I was a loader for two years. My highest PPH is 1800. Absolutely brutal, could only handle it with a few energy drinks in me lol... But definitely use the load stand, I know that fucker can get in the way but believe me your shoulders will be thanking you.. I got promoted to an Outbound supervisor a few months ago.. Had a meeting where I guy got into serious trouble for taking pictures / recording inside the facility. Just be careful man.... Also try to focus on T’s.. I can see your walls are getting there but try to work on that... How far along are you in your new hire packet?
1800? REALLY?! We got like 7000. The f^ck?
IamBLUE you lying 1800 is the total packages u scanned overall
Allow me to clarify.. This was during peak season, by no means was holding down 1800 flow pretty by any means. My load wasn’t flowing 1800 the entire night. But for a short period of time, it was.. When I was a loader I would usually load about 3-4 thousand a day. During peak season, I would load about 6-7 thousand. Our building is completely automated so I didn’t have to scan any packages.
I don't see you scanning bro & bend at the knees keep natural curve of the back
Yeah thank you
Was your interview short because I’m worried my interview was today and it was short he asked me like 6 questions and that was it..
yes it was short, they have many applicants so they do things quickly, trust me they need you people come and go here.
