Job description of part time package handler at FedEx?

it's a reshipping scam that will land you in prison. You are being used by criminal gangs to receive and send goods bought with stolen credit card numbers, hacked Paypal accounts and counterfeit checks. When the real account holder notices the theft and reports it, the investigation lead to one place - YOUR front door as all pacakges were sent to YOUR home. Also some of the shipments will also contain drugs hidden inside hollowed out toys, electronic items, etc. Do you really want to go to jail for up to 10 years for someone you've never even met?? There is NO company in the world that asks people to do this work from their home. It's either done out of a sorting/distribution facility OR they set up an account through Mail Boxes Etc, UPS, FedEx, etc to do this

How much money would I get as a FedEx package handler?

When I started at FedEx Express 5 years ago, I started at $11.64/hour and worked about 20 hours a week. It was third shift, so I got a third shift premium of $0.50/hour (this premium is no longer there). The benefits at FedEx are great. For a single person, it's less than $40 per month, and that covers full medical, dental, vision, psychiatric, and drug and alcohol dependency. FedEx also provides tuition reimbursement. There is also an agency within FedEx known as the FedEx Employee Association, that deals with companies for whom we ship and get FedEx employees discounts on products and services (for example, cell phones and cell phone plans, cars, cruises, etc.). Also, because FedEx is considered an airline, you would be considered an airline employee and can get really, really cheap airfare (about $30 to Florida). We used to be able to fly on FedEx planes for free anywhere in the world but after 9/11 that changed, understandably.

Note: this is all true for FedEx EXPRESS. I'm not sure the rules for FedEx Ground, Freight, or any others.

How much does a package handler for UPS make a week?

Union dues are taken once a month and you probably know that you have to pay the intiation fee. After all that bull you will bring about $110-$150 depending on hours. Hang in there though the pay raises come alot faster than most any other job out there, you just have to show up and work for it. You will go up to $9.00 after 90 days I believe then $10.00 after a year, I could be off as the current contract is different than the one I was under, but I know I'm close. I was part-time up for about 3.5 years and I was making $14.35/hour when I got the driver position. GET A COPY OF THE CONTRACT BOOK A.S.A.P. It will give you loads of info on everything, so you can make sure UPS is paying you right, and letting you use your teamster rights correctly! You pay union dues, make sure they protect you for it.

Will I eventually get hours working as a UPS Package Handler?

I now work at UPS as a part-time package handler. This is also a regular position, not temporary. I worked my first day on Tuesday and I actually enjoyed the job. The morning flew by fast, and I thought of it as an extreme workout. I also told management and the supervisor that my goal is to eventually become a part-time supervisor after I prove myself and that I will work hard to do so. I'm on call and for the next two days they haven't worked me since my first day. Did I not perform to their expectations? Or is this normal for a new hire at UPS? I'm worried that they would rather have a stronger man work the job? Or was it something I said? My first day I really tried to prove that all though I'm small woman, I can still work just as fast and hard as a guy while unloading the trucks, and that I'm there to stay. I really want to work toward becoming a pt supervisor, for the benefits and the help with school, so i can get my Masters degree. I also think i would do a great job.
For the past two days they havent worked me. Am I overthinking this? Or am I not getting hours for a reason? On My first day, the manager said that package handlers should be getting hours because of the high turnover rate and they demand new hires. Please help... When I do work next, is there anything I can do or say that will have the supervisor work me over someone else to assure that I work more then just once a week. Please help me get peace of mind. I'm so worried that UPS is not going to work me and I seriously want to be there.

Thank you for reading all of this and any advise will be helpful...

Why don't carriers like FedEx, UPS, USPS, etc., mathematically determine the exactly optimal box sizes (and relative numbers of each) that would optimize their aircraft and truck loads, and then require all shippers to use one of those box sizes?

The trade-off is between time and optimim space utiliization, and in the case of FedEx, the over-riding consideration is time. Drivers simply cannot wait around while a shipper gets his various shipments into a limited number of physically shaped containers fitting some pre determined limitation. First of all, cargo handlers are very adept at quickly “bricklaying” consolidated packages into aircraft containers, (typically aluminum cubes 9-foot x 9x9, which are designed for roll-on roll-off activity, making it possible to load or unload a Tractor-trailer in 4 minutes, or wide-body aircraft in 20 minutes).By demanding a limited set of sizes, it doesn’t even save space. Suppose you have a product with a shape of 17x12x16. If you refuse the package (when packed) fits into a 18x13x 17, why would you refuse that package and demand it go into a 18x 18x 24” package? You haven’t actually saved any cubic inches at all, you’ve actually wasted 3,798 cubic inches (and this adds up fast!), it’s just that the wastage is inside the packages themselves rather than outside. Plus packages not fully filled are easily crushed, making stacking of them in fact MORE complicated and slow.Drivers do not have TIME to wait for shippers to “right-size” their shipment packaging. When I worked routes for FedEx, our unofficial watchward was, “ I will run for you, I will jump for you, I will fly for you, but I will not wait for you.” In late afternoon was picking up 20–25 srops per hour.For FedEx, sending a half-full aircraft is better than sending a full plane 90 minutes late, the packages on the late aircraft will pretty much all be late, which means there will be no or almost no revenue from that flight.
