Local UPS driver achieves coveted 25-year safe driving milestone, shares advice with public – 70 West Sentinel

When Leslie Tiller was teaching her son how to drive, he got so frustrated he parked the car and stormed away. A professional driver for 36 years, she was adamant about safe driving methods: keep your eyes on the road, check your mirrors, be aware of your surroundings, in particular.

“He was so mad he walked home,” Leslie laughed.

But the Old Monroe, MO, native had reasons to be a strict teacher back then and now. As a professional truck driver for UPS, Leslie is well-aware of the types of things that can happen on the road with other drivers.

UPS to resume refund program for some late, missed deliveries–sources – Freight Waves

After yearlong suspension, company will reinstate policy for next-day air services

UPS Inc. will partially reinstate its money-back guarantees for late or missed deliveries, effective April 5, according to people familiar with the matter.

For now, the Atlanta-based company will resume its “guaranteed service refunds” program for its three next-day air delivery products: Early A.M. deliveries by 8 a.m., next-day air by 10:30 a.m., and next day air saver by mid-afternoon, according to one of the people. The policy shift will not extend, at least for now, to UPS’ ground-parcel delivery services.

UPS declined comment.
