It isn’t easy.

It’s more like 95$k and the rest are benefits. Some drivers make over 120$K and they kill themselves for it or have no home life.

Prior to the new deal, the company said drivers earned about $95,000 in pay annually on average or about $42 an hour, and another $50,000 in benefits

For drivers, the Teamsters union, which represents more than 300,000 UPS staff, said the new contract would provide a pay boost of $2.50 an hour this year and $7.50 an hour over the five years of the deal.

Yeah - I have respect for those who do that work. It comes at great sacrifice by my lifestyle standards.

I’d prefer the market set pay as opposed to government tho.

The job should pay whatever it takes to staff it with competence.

Not sure what time they punch in but I see my UPS guy still driving at 7pm sometimes so they must do some serious overtime too.
