LTL company change advice, what do you all think

good luck at UPSF Andrew.

 

but didn't you guys agree to like a 15% cut for like two years? Or isn't that for new guys? I got a friend that started in Chicago and he told me the cut will be until 2015 for him when he will finally get the old payscale back or something I don't remember much.

 

Yep we ate 15%. I think we were supposed to have gotten it back by now but they want to extend it or did extend it. I've lost track with all their BS!

 

It's still more money than most company drivers make lol

 

Curious if u guys think it would be smart idea to try to get in into this field. I currently work at sysco foodservice in the warehouse can do it all load trucks forklift n pull orders which is my main job n preference since I make alot more at it then the others. I know how to hustle since my job on incentive base pay. But just thinkin about looking for something new we are taking are about to take a 2nd pay cut this yr n they keep doing things to try n slow us down so we make less $$. I currently don't have a Cdl but have been thinking about getting one. Or possible getting it from sysco since I could switch to a driver there n they would help me get my Cdl. But they just took a pay cut also n are upset.. What would be a good way into say FedEx OD UPS etc guessing starting on the dock? What's the starting pay like?

 

I still think you can make a geat living driving for Sysco, even with a pay cut.

 

For sure, i think in my area they start at around $21-22 an hour

 

Yea I think they start are guys off at like $19-20hr then can make more depending on routes n stuff. That's like in the warehouse they start u off at $14.9hr but once u get on wip can make more. I avg $31-32 hr but curious to see wat it will be after they update are wip program in a wk or 2..
