On the bright side My center manager called me tonight at 845 to see how things were going. I was kinda nervous at first,(you know answering the phone while driving) but he was very positive and it really was a bright spot to a completely crappy day.
First of all I'm assuming that was 845pm. If that's the case I would have answered and then hung up on him. If he was truly concerned the call and some help would have come much earlier.
Secondly in the state I live in it is not illegal to talk on a cell phone while driving. The contract clearly states local laws will apply when using a cell phone while operating a UPS vehicle. So unless it's illegal in the state you work in there is nothing to be nervous about when you answer your after dark, bull
, courtesy call from your Center Facilitator. I call him that as he isn't afforded the authority to manage anything but the stacks of reports on his desk. They don't manage. They facilitate whatever mandates that come down from the pencil-neck, laptop toting geeks in the ivory tower.

Thanks DS. I shook it off like most things at work. I do like to hear other peoples opinions, but it seems that its the same people all the time always rock the boat (Just like the real world). The only good thing about being in here is that I can always go to a different thread and read something else instead of looking at the same ol' BS.
Your right, no need for me to get jaded about most things. I have alot of respect for the majority of people in here and I do like to hear others opinions. There will ALWAYS be people in here that I guarantee you I will read there posts and take it in. And then there are others that I could care less if they post at all. (Not many, but some).
As many of you know that I'm not one to post long drawn out posts, I usually use visualizations
and for the most part I stick to not so serious threads. Thats just me and I try not to take life to serious -- Its too short.Anyways, tomorrows a new day and hopefully I will wake up to do it all again in the morning.

lol. It is actually funny that we really do pretty extraordinary things to make a delivery on some stops. Like going through the mail box, calling to hear ringing, etc., etc.
Your comment just brings to light how much we do to make a stop sometimes.

Judging from your posts, I would think that anyone who can spell and put 2 words together would be your hero.
Oh, if I could only get you for my helper, just for one peak. Hell, even for just one day. You wouldn't last until lunch.

You guys also know that designating the over 70 in your board as over 70 will get you additional time allotment?
I don't do the address corrections in the board. I let ECS do it. If a customer uses an incorrect address. You go to that address like the college example and they will not take it. It get's NSP and goes to ECS.
I was at the place the shipper wanted it sent to. They didn't want it and wanted it delivered elsewhere. I'm fine with that but it's not happening that day.

How does one designate an over 70 as such on the board?

Ironically they make it as hard as possible (on purpose?). After you scan the package and identify it as an over 70, you must now big arrow up, back to the address screen. Then you hit the shift key and hit the far left "soft key" labeled "special". From there you little arrow up to the over 70 line and enter the number of over 70's you have for that stop. Then big arrow up, big arrow down, and your are back to the package screen to finish scanning the stop. You probably get an extra 7 seconds to execute this 10 second process.
LOL! ZING!!

So, if the package was going to you personally and it was important paperwork and the shipper put the incorrect address on it, you would sheet it up as NSN/NSP? I don't believe you would, so why would you do it to someone else, knowing darn well you know where it goes. All it takes is a little effort to look something up or make a quick phone call.
Why would I want to add more send agains to myself or even the next driver the next day?

That is somewhat misleading as many people do not eat lunch at 5:00 p.m. I hope you do not require your helper to work for an hour off the clock each morning as well.

Now if we can get everybody to understand that they should not be in their trucks before start time, we may get somewhere. It is like this everywhere, unfortunately. There is always a few that think they will be in trouble if they do not donate time every day. I doubt it will ever stop.
