Pros
Compensation, benefits, outside work, knowing that I am giving the sole responsibility on a daily basis to achieve a certain task and goals. The pay is probably the best in the industry and you can't beat the workplace atmosphere., especially if you have a rural route where you get to see alot of the country. UPS pays for our health and welfare ang generally the coverage is good. It is one of the only jobs I know of where you are giving a set amount of work at 9 am and told to git-r-done and do not have to watch the clock till 5 pm. You run your route and when your finished (sometimes after 9pm) you take it home.
Cons
Long hours, very demanding goals, hard to get days off , or get off early for family events such as childrens programs, graduations, an occasional childs sporting event ect.
