To my knowledge most all full time UPS delivery drivers are career drivers and members of the Teamsters union, whereas generally speaking, FedEx delivery drivers come and go, some stay long term but most don't and the last I knew are non union.
Don't know if they still are but the majority of FedEx Ground delivery drivers are (were?) essentially small business owners.They buy and maintain their own delivery vehicles, bid on delivery routes, get paid a percentage of each parcel. Some acquire additional routes, buy or lease more delivery vehicles and hire their own extra drivers to run those additional routes. A local woman FedEx delivery driver/owner owned several routes and delivery vehicles she sold to other FedEx Ground drivers when she retired.
yes............UPS are with the Teamsters Union.....proud retired member of Utah Local 222 here
But then Utah and other right to work states......do not have to join the Union.......total bull schidt in my book
If a full time/full pay scale UPS driver is making the same $35/hr as a dues paying member...
no reason for him not to be paying or want to pay monthly Union dues......
Fed Ex is non Union last I heard......not making $35 an hr either
