So you didn't make that delivery that day right? You have no first-hand knowledge of how backed-up that hallway was, or why he couldn't get them all to fit inside the door? Maybe the driver was hustling his ass off and the workers inside couldn't get to them fast enough. Maybe he had airs, or another bulk stop he needed to get off. What I'm eluding to is that you don't know why some of that stop was outside the door, yet you felt comfortable to criticize him on how he made that stop. Just because you're asinine enough to wait until every package gets inside the door, does't mean you're right. My center manager would literally laugh at you if you told him you wait until every package gets inside the door. He'll say "Get as much in as you can, get a signature, and get going". Do you find it even the slightest bit arrogant to take a picture of another driver making a stop without knowing all the details? Especially when there's absolutely nothing wrong with leaving packages outside the door once the consignee signs and accepts responsibility for them?! Nothing wrong with that picture, or the driver leaving after he got a signature. Stop acting so arrogant and like the Messenger of Methods on here.

Oh Yeah
Once again the public has no idea what we go through on a daily basis. Probably another Stevie Wonder load by those suckazzzzzzz loaders like normal. Ive done operation reload like that a million times in the past because of a total idiot load. Im not saying it was right that they did that when it was wet outside. I would at least try n come up with an alternate way of doing that if i could if the weather was wet out that day. But if they had to do that, that day it is what it is.

customers will never be happy... they have 2 choices, we can handle with care and take much much longer or we can get it to them asap and the box MIGHT be a little battered or a little wet, but as long as the contents inside the packages are fine then i'd say we did a damn good job... i would challenge any of the people involved with that report to try a drivers job for just half a day... i bet they couldn't do it even 1/4 as good.

If any driver here tries to say he/she never tossed a package, I may have to violate the TOS!
I've caught myself tossing light plastic bags with clothes in them and had to focus on not... "hand to surface..." I see those home security cameras everywhere now that the cable companies are getting in on it.

Why did you get there early? Are you completely done when you are there, sitting and waiting?

Yes. Full lunch and break taken. It's usually no more than 5-10 minutes early.

It really was!
.... was launched from the hip (gunslinger style), pkg. landed flat, label side up. Very little sliding which means the delivery guy calculated the proper coefficient of friction in just a millisecond. Pkg. was out of the weather and (bonus points) for not hitting the pumpkins that homeowner should have removed weeks ago.

Tough spot to be in. How was the wally driver supposed to unload the stops by himself? Was he really supposed to get up and down the Wally with 1 package at a time? The center manager had to realize this when the wally and meet point was being set up.
I know I'd have done the same, but I would have tried to make the "pile" look a little more organized by dropping the packages into columns. Still, it doesn't look like the driver was unloading out of anger, just frustration. Sucks to be him.

The bottom ones broke the fall of the other ones. The bottom ones could have been pillows.
Also the puddle wasn't that bad. If she wanted a real story, she should have got a bucket of water and made it bigger.
One more thing. That guy could have been a sup or a seasonal driver. You don't see guys in brown doing it.
Got to love the news team!!
We need Ron burgundy out there!!
