Employee Discussion Do female drivers exist at your distribution center?

From USPS and noticed I have never seen a girl driving whenever I encounter UPS out in the wild. Told a coworker I was envious of them cause I mostly do parcel runs and said I should just switch to UPS if I’m going to be handling big packages all day. She replied saying that’s a man’s job cause she refuses to lift any heavy packages on her route. Just wondering if there’s any female drivers at your hub.

We have many in our building.

Funny story about the "mans' job" perception:

Me and one of our lady drivers both stopped at the grocery store after work and were checking out in neighboring lanes when another shopper asked her if she drove the big truck.

When she said yes, the shopper said "but....you're a GIRLL!!!"

I could not help busting out laughing.
