Like I said it was tried and didn’t work well. Also like I said they are still trying to find a fit. It will be a while if ever ai takes the place of a physical dispatcher. It is the milage runs that pay almost $1k per day where the highest earners are.
So a feeder run. Never heard of a mileage run for a package car driver

No driver makes $170,000 a year. DOT Laws you can only work 60 hours a week and you can’t work more than 14 hours in a day because you have to have 10hrs off work before can work again
Yes, I am aware of that fact. My post was in jest of what it would take to make that sort of money as a truck driver. Nice point of yours regardless

Yeah that’s BS. No UPS driver makes $170,000 a year. A lot the new buildings are automated which means you don’t need as many part time employees. UPS is closing centers. UPS is phasing out Amazon pkgs because they say the aren’t profitable. UPS uses AI to dispatch the routes which means you need less management which aren’t Union employees.



Based on the labor contract, full time drivers would earn an average of $170k per year. Compensation total package includes about $49/hr plus health, welfare, pension benefits. AI also noted that "this, the average total compensation, is expected to be reached at the end of the five-year contract." The potential strike occurred in 2023 hence UPS is laying off drivers before the 5 year period is reached.

Yes, based on the 2023 labor contract negotiations, full-time UPS drivers will earn an average of approximately $170,000 in annual pay and benefits (health insurance, pension) by the end of the five-year contract. This figure represents total compensation, not just salary, with top-rate drivers seeing significant wage increases.
Key details regarding the UPS contract:
  • Total Compensation: The $170k figure includes roughly $49 per hour in wages (around $100,000+ annually) plus health, welfare, and pension benefits.
  • Timeline: This, the average total compensation, is expected to be reached at the end of the five-year contract.
  • Impact: The deal, which averted a potential 2023 strike, significantly increased pay for both full-time and part-time workers, with part-timers reaching a minimum of $25.75 per hour.

I can tell you no driver make $170,000. Top pay is $45.74 right now for a packet car driver unless he pulls a trailer you get .25 cent extra an hour.Take it from someone who has almost 30 years of experience. Don’t let the part time pay full you. They only work anywhere from 3 to 5 hours a day. After 5 hrs they get overtime pay. The one big plus about part time is you get 100% medical insurance family included. I have know several people who want to work part time just for the insurance

We have pt who work over 10 hours a day. Also pt that work over 8 the pay goes back to regular time. You work up in Boone correct, I know and knew a few managers up your way.
