Just another wacky Wednesday at the station Frontline Optics Sunglasses (15% Code sonsofsever) frontline-opti...?sca_ref=4411943.aXS6rNWNxY Lems Shoes: www.lemsshoes....
You got out at 8:15?? We usually don’t get out until at least 9. They want us in the building generally at 8:30, and then it’s sitting around waiting for sometimes up to an hour to leave.
@@Deliverypros That sounds awful. I get up at 7 and that’s plenty early enough. I just started and generally even the routes that are heavy for us (170-190 stops) we start driving at 9:30 and are back by 5 at the latest.
@@yammmit I’d rather get there early, dispatch early and then be home early. I’ve only ever been out past 3pm three times and I’m home by 2 most days even now
It looks like you have a good contractor. My contractor sucks, I used to be a delivery guy for Amazon driving a step van, but I recently switched to FedEx Ground and we also drive step vans there. I regret going to FedEx Ground, I talked to my old contractor at Amazon and I'm going back.
I work for Express out of Toronto ON. We are currently switching to one fedex so ground and express together. so it’s gonna be quite hectic by the looks of it.
Much prefer overcast days to deliver in... sun is great and all on days off, but that sun and trying to see the iPad and esp the scanner is no fun, haha! Not to mention driving around all day with the sun in your eyes and glaring off the dirty windows.
All those super visible, super close entrances to the road must kick ass to deliver to those... I'm lucky to have a handful of those in a single neighborhood on the various routes I run (I'm kinda the pinch-hitter driver)... but wondering if y'all have much problems with porch pirates in that area? Looks like ideal conditions for them too.
Hey bro I have a question about the job does the facility has employee parking ?I’m trying to get out of nyc and do this more upstate so I can get house deliveries over the chaos of driving in nyc, I would have to drive my personal vehicle to get there
@@damienortiz9532 only if someone specifically complains about it. In which case I just remember that person request (there’s only one person who has complained so far). But it’s an option on my scanner so 🤷🏻♂️
Ya it wasn’t bad at all. I consider anything over 30 furniture deliveries “heavy” because it’s literally thousands of pounds 😂 but there were a good amount of smalls between the about 40-50 furniture stops.
@@DeliveryprosI wish FedEx would value us drivers more. I’m not saying we need to be at UPS levels in pay and work but when express merges and we have time commits and all that a lot of people are going to drop off
@@yammmit there will be a newborn "fool" out there who is willing to sacrifice it's health, and physical body to advance, enlarged the capitalist owner profit margins. In 99% of time without any retirement compensation after 35yrs of service. Work smart NOT hard. That msg is coming from an X FedEx #1 producer driver who got cutout of the work force after he suffered a back injury 😳
@@osuave7811 I don’t know what any of that has to do with me correcting this guy. But I just started with Fedex and I love it. I love the physicality of it. I have a full 401K, vision, dental insurance. They even helped me get a lawyer when I had to deal with some personal issues in court.

@@Coffee_n_Fitness contractor does make or break the job for sure
Holy mountains that is one beautiful view!! Thanks for bringing us along again
How miles a day do you drive?
@@Robmulert2830 35 to 40
Hey man, love the content. I drove for FedEx for 5 years. Would love to see more videos from you!

Man U got an easyyyyy route. id kill to have that. try having 170 stops with 75% businesses 😢
@@jonathangriffin6828 I’d rather die than have a business heavy route again. Not worth the money
Incredible views out there, too! Love Michigan, but envious of those mountains, we don't have any of those kinds of views here haha.

@@Cgrintime92 they definitely should. We have a big empty parking lot 😂
What facility doesn’t have employee parking?
Just a question you don’t get in trouble for Putting by the garage doors?

203 stops that didn't look bad on your truck, must've been a ton of smalls that day!? You drive a 1200 I assume?

@@maryshane8023 @delivery_pro_army
You made a video about quitting but you’re still there. That makes it look like theirs no escape. So sad
@@bestclipz4u2watch kinda. I did a video about that as well

@@yammmit wow thanks for the spelling correction. You sure did show me the error of my ways here. I commend you leading me down the right path.
