I think this is pretty accurate from my experience. UPS drivers seem to care more, but then again they're making $100k a year with pension and free health insurance.

Wow, they make that much and don't have to pay into insurance each check...why isn't everyone a UPS driver?

Yep. The benefits are insane. Even part timers get full time benefits with the free health insurance and pension.

Because your back and knees will be 90 years old, while the rest of you turns 50. Not to mention rural drivers in our area are often out until 9 or 10 pm

All my UPS drivers have been awesome. Love em!

FedEx will chuck your shite. USPS will lose it. Individual Amazon drivers are hit or miss- but they're pretty good for the most part where I am.

That's crazy. But I guess it's not surprising. It's a sweet package deal they get.

UPS are super nice and polite. My USPS drivers in my subdivision give treats to my dog. Usually FedEx delivers here and all but once we’re good deliveries.

However, once FedEx backed into my side driveway one day, opened the back of the truck, shoved out a heavy box of ammo onto the driveway halfway to the house, and drove off. It was in easy reach of anyone driving the side street. Package weighed nearly 70 pounds.
