I thought they did that anyway. When I go back to Brooklyn, I see everybody wearing masks. People walking outside, in their cars by themselves and even people out for a jog. It's like the twilight zone.

OD is where it’s at! My son, dock worker, at OD, just hit his one year anniversary, now making $26.75 an hour. He said too pay for dock worker right now, $29.00.
Crazy how a company that doesn't use any rail or purchase, and only has a LTL division could pay better that us. Oh yeah and there stock prices are catching us too...

My wifes friend just posted for an OD job fair in Columbus OH. Her friends husband runs linehaul there. Their flyer says their city drivers average $26.70/hr and $73k/yr. Dock starting at $20. Yet they keep saying they make more than us. One of our drivers just went there and he said he was starting at .74/mile.

Sounds like maybe the grass ain't necessarily greener, even if the trucks are.
I also thought that was good money at FedEx. It is if your happy with that. My buddies over here at Ups feeder make close to 200,000 . Way easier work I just wanted a better life and retirement. So I went for it
Our OD city drivers at my location are at $32.63. I'm not sure where the $26.70 came from. Linehaul is .7358cpm.
Biggest difference between FXF and OD is the task pay. Besides the dock work. I turned down an offer from OD because of the low task pay. I also couldn’t get a clear answer on being paid for waiting on freight from the TM. Seems at OD only way you can make the big bucks is running hard every night. I don’t want to run 600 a night. I’d rather run 450 and work the dock for an hour or 2. Plus I was told some locations ask drivers to work the dock……This was a Chicagoland location. Trucks are all 10 speeds at the place I applied at which I thought was cool. Until I thought about it when I was crawling thru traffic on 294 during morning rush hour. Well got a interview at my local public works facility next week. Big pay cut but a real pension and 7-3:30 shift M-F and all the OT when the snow is flying. End of rant.
