I'm not sure why you're trying to paint such a bad picture of our schedules at UPS. Believe me, there are a whole lot worse out there at a fraction of our pay.

If anybody truly wants to improve their QOL 100%, then you have to bite the bullet, and move to your domicile. This axiom holds true for any airline, not just UPS.
If you ever fly a domestic schedule, I can attest to how bad they suck whether you live in domicile or not. They are absolutely brutal. I was bidding around 110 domestically and all i could hold, besides A RSV was Base Line Trips or bottom half VTOs full of weeks of call-in(to sit hot). I would guess the domestic schedules are more like your Delta schedule, but at night.
