|
Friday, 09 May 2008 |
Bob Gragg drives a tractor-trailer 486 miles a day, but he's not complaining about the high price of diesel fuel.
He reports to work at 6:15 a.m. and doesn't finish up to 5:30 or 6 p.m., but he doesn't complain about the hours.
As a union driver for UPS, he earns more than $90,000 a year. "That's
what keeps us here," he said during a 6 a.m. interview at the UPS
package-handling center in the South Charleston Industrial Park off
MacCorkle Avenue.
