[QUOTE="toonertoo, post: 506218, member: 1944"] I just long for the days when I was beat to hell at the end but the next day I went back, heard "thanks for the nice job" and kicked in the nitro and did it again. Now you are beat to hell, go in the next day, get kicked in the groin, and try to find a way to do something better than you did the day before to make some number magically different. It no longer works.. Instead of looking forward to another day, I feel like puking when I pull in the lot. And its not just me, and yes the economy is bad, and we are lucky to be working. Aside from that, UPS management style whether ruled from the top down, is just so bad it has ruined the morale, in some of the best, hardest working people I have ever known. Ok enough. It has reached the point of diminished return. The turnip has run dry, and it doesnt even bleed anymore. There is no way even if UPS got rid of all the "heavy weight" of us older drivers it will continue to be productive. Although the younger drivers, and Im not saying there are not great ones coming in, in any way, will ever be able to keep up the product, as they will not be allowed to. And my customers care about the relationship with their daily people. They want and need that personal attention. If we do not give it to them someone else will. Its really disgusting to see and hear the crap going on. And then there is the [B]minute between stop report[/B]........................ I had this pulled on me the other day. When they want to do that, get a cup of coffee and take a deep breathe, while they go get your delivery records and your time card. as there is no way you can possibly discuss this ridiculous report without those other two, but they will want you to.
