Day in the Work Life: UPS driver
Santa's job gets a lot easier when he enlists the help of a few tireless folks in brown polyester uniforms. UPS driver Fred Gourley says he has between 100 and 110 stops on an average work day.

Ah - what memories I have... I retired 13 years ago from UPS and can't say I miss it at all. Still don't like the Holiday Season (burnt out) but it was good to hear Fred with his on site job tour. Most people think that a driver leaves the Hub with one stop at a time - WRONG! One thing you didn't mention Fred - that is the huge amount of cookies you got.. Ha Ha. Good Luck and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
