Smh damn, my boy starts with them in 2 weeks and is super excited but this nikka HATES the heat. Wont even come outside if its too hot. Wait till I tell him this shyt

Hates the heat but decided to become a delivery driver

Maybe underlying conditions? Either way still gotta crush at least a gallon a day. I know it sucks having to drink a lot of water cuz ur driving alot and can't find a public bathroom but u gotta adapt and invest in a tactical pee bottle . That's that Humvee life

Heat exhaustion/heat stroke is very real. I had heat exhaustion last year and it was horrible. I was sick for almost a week. I can’t even imagine how bad it was for the young man to pass away.
RIP

I said the same thing but the only thing this nikka knows about being a delivery driver is what he sees Doug go through on King Of Queens lol he thinking its about to be some fun cushiony job

If he died in the dry heat in Cali then this southern humid heat would have straight melted him

One time I asked the UPS driver how hot it gets in his truck, he said easily over 100 degrees.

Just saw a guy in the gym who looked in pretty good shape almost collapse. Mans wasn't drinking nearly enough water.

He’s probably gonna quit after the first week.

I tried working for ups as a truck unloader way back. I only lasted 3 days, the trailers were hot af.

Didn’t make it better that I had to walk 10 miles home after each shift. Told the job I hurt my back and never went back.

Water & hats will save your life. I hated how those sun hats for men look, but I swallowed my pride and bought one after I had a severe migraine from mowing the yard in 95 degree heat. Now I wear one of these whenever I do yard work

Where u get this hoe Ll

Lol I’ll cut the grass … car pass and quickly turn my head towards their way like the creeper .. slow walk to the truck while lookin at them lol

I was a 3am-9am package handler for ups like a month after graduating high school that shyt was trash but they paid every week

When I was a driver helper my driver would being drinks to work and had no problem stopping off at a corner to grab something to eat or drink.

My boy has been driving for them since the month he hit 21. They work them hard. The best pay in the delivery industry by a country mile but they earn every bit of it. With the work load and the extreme heat, it just wouldn't be worth it to me. A lot of those guys and girls are somewhat trapped too. You're hard pressed to find a job that requires only a high school diploma and a clean driving record that pays 100k within four years of being on the job and offers union protection. UPS knows it too which is why their trucks are still prehistoric and the workload hasn't slowed down.
