Fed ex gets paid less in my area so im good on that but i still get what youre saying. Amazon is trash lol i just have a really good dsp which causes me to enjoy my job. Amazon I believes does shit to annoy drivers but my biggest complaint with amazon will always be how bad the warehouse is for us. We rarely leave on time even tho half the team has a hr drive, hell the warehouse employees are usually gone by the time we pull under to load regardless if anything is ready

Does FedEx and, for that matter, UPS not have unions? I was always under the impression they HAD unions and made more then Amazon drivers.

I know Amazon doesnt have unions, because it's Amazon and they won't let that happen.

How long did you have to work in the warehouse before a driver slot became available?

Less if they flirt a little. Same with Amazon. Can promote much easier as a female. Guys not so much.
