No, she cannot do 230 stops per day, but there are things she does which none of us have any idea. I have no dog in the fight, I would just like to see an employee say they are glad to work for such a strong well-run company, and THEN ask for mo-money, instead of bashing and envy. I know I know... its human nature to pit us against each other. just makes me more nuts than i already am... best of luck to you and UPS ...

    Lol, I work at UPS. We have multiple big shippers who send us their FedEx "overflow" every single day because FedEx doesnt have the capacity to handle it. They have contracte but fedex cant keep up. We never turn any flow down, we'll just keep working until its done. So Fedex cant handle their own flow, but somehow they're going to take ours in addition to their own. Same with Amazon. They max out their flow every single day and then send us all the stuff they can't get out. We deliver almost all their 70-150 lbs. packages. I have friends that work at the postal service, its a complete mess. Anyone thats had anything delivered via USPS the past 10 years knows how garbage their service is.

UPS has been treating their employees like complete shit the last couple contracts and they don’t abide by the current one. If we need to go down with the ship we’re more than happy. UPS did this to themselves . We have no hard feelings watching them lose money. Also Tome’ has been useless riding the coat tail of the “pandemic” and slitting management throats. She hasn’t bettered anything or made any smart moves to increase profits. She’s been lucky. Cut Orion and treat your people better and you’ll make the $$$$ you want Carol.

By far FedEx do slot for thier employees like showing how they appreciate thier employees for example,almost every Friday they gave breakfast sandwiches and they would have food trucks in which you would get a ticket to get what you wanted. USPS never did shit for thier employees but give them bullshit and they often created problems with the employees all the time. So they would be mad at each other other than management.
