job was a package handler at fedex

anddddd go

Why did you quit?

how are you going to support yourself?

3 reasons:

my state is lifting the mask mandate at the end of this month and fedex told us that despite that, they’re continuing with mask wearing for as long as they deem necessary

they don’t allow ear buds period so no music

and the biggest reason being that package handlers are the only ones required to leave their phones in their vehicle.... can’t bring it in at all.... I even told the manager I had kids and needed to keep it on me, and he said no and to take it back out to my truck.... so i walked to my truck and left

also, FYI.... I’ve done package handling at UPS and they don’t have nazi ass rules like that

like what job tells u that phones aren’t allowed and u gotta leave it in ur vehicle.... I haven’t worked at a place ever that’s made u do that

You can handle my package for free.
*******.

Many years ago (when I was 21) I did that job (loader more specifically) at UPS. Absolute shyt job. Let's just say I didn't stick around long.

Nice, my shortest time at a job was about 30 minutes.

Mirin OP

That's the problem. You applied at FedEx. If you wanted real benefits you should have applied at UPS. Srs though, I don't know about their policies about the masks since it's been 4 years since I last worked there. UPS drivers were 6-7 months late when it came to wearing masks but I didn't give a shyt unlike a lot of people who were probably harassing them.

When the job said "Package handler" did you think they meant diks?

Were they going to search you for your phone? I doubt everyone follows that rule

How much money do you have saved up?

Are you going to go back to get your check?

actually zero packing breh.... didn't even go far in enough to make it past securitythat stimmy bout to hit so i'll be gucci brehain't nothin free in this life boyoit's a physically demanding job no doubt.... but tbh, i didn't mind doing it at UPS.... like i kinda touched on in the OP, UPS was way more laid back... we got breaks, they didn't give af about you listening to music, they weren't nazis about bringing in your phone.... like wtf.

fedex be treating grown ass adults like some childrenthanks brehyeah, i was doing package handling last year at UPS around the time the pandemic hit cuz we were getting THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of boxes of masks from China shipped in on the daily.... like i'm not even playin

but yeah, i hear u bro.... with UPS being union, it's prob gonna be better than fedex. I just didn't realize fedex was gonna be so strict about chit.... like honestly some of their policies just seem like some retarded bullchitactually yeah breh... u go thru security going into the facility and leaving it. When i had to empty my pockets to walk in and i put my phone in the basket they handed me, she asked me if i was a package handler and i told her "yeah" and then she said phones weren't allowed. So, i asked to speak to a manager about it and had to wait for one and tried to tell him about having kids and how i really didn't like how they were expecting me to just not be able to have my phone and i tried to be like ya know, what if i had an emergency and someone was trying to get ahold of me? They didn't care.... so i was like ight, i'll go back to my truck and put my phone up.... so i went to my truck and just left srsbout tree fiddyfor what? maybe like 5 hours of work total cuz they paid us for orientation.... nah. don't rly feel like driving an hour down and back just for that. i'm gucci breh

Did you inappropriately touch someone's package, OP?

OP applied for the wrong package handling job nomsayin

No wonder that’s the best job you can find lmfao

So a private company has employee rules you think you're above so you quit? Maybe you shouldn't have had kids.

I have a no phone policy at work as well. I don't actually care if you just have it on you for emergencies etc.. But if I catch people sitting there gawking at there phone non stop I will tell them to leave it in their cars. And if I see it again = fired

Can't even tell you how much time is wasted on phones, especially by younger people

nah breh ya boi don't swing like thatno homo boyoor maybe companies shouldn't be having bullchit rules..... just a thought

like what does having ur phone hurt? legit can't think of a single job i've ever had in my entire life that had a policy like that..... why work for a place that's going to treat some of their employees like children

You're going to support your kids on the little money that Kamala is about to give you?

A lot of adults are barely better than children.

ballin on biden bux breh

but fr i don't have a ton of monthly expenses so that helps a lot

plus i could always door dash or whatever too for the time beingthis is true

In your mid 30's and quitting a job in 5 minutes b/c you can't have ear buds or keep your phone on you.


strong everything.

Very well. What's the long term plan? Kids going to college? Retirement?

good job

yea i wouldn't have a job like that in my 30s either

OP, did you hear FedX and UPS are merging . There going to call it FedUp

Who goes through the process of starting a job, piss test, interviews etc, wakes up and goes to his job then quits because he can’t listen to music and text on his phone. Strong work ethic.

Wow you fire people for checking their phones ?

U prob that boss everybody talks chit about behind your back ....tight azz

Id walk the hell out on your job too ...if I was a grown man told to leave his phone in the car

Whats this..work or grade 2?
