[QUOTE="Big Package, post: 3026784, member: 67494"] Oh totally missed you're a woman. Good thing your head sup is female, too. Every woman I've met at UPS has said they've had a hard time advancing in the company because they're not a guy. Going to your head sup for advice on how to do your job better will at least give them an inkling your immediate sup isn't doing their job. Are all your misloads wrong cars or putting next day air under stacks of randoms? You can also keep a second tote, and if your driver's air is super light, just put a tote with 4 envelopes in the "batter's box" - between the bulkhead door and where two people can stand shoulder to shoulder - and your driver will love you. If you show up to work on time and they're understaffed you'll be fine. We kept a guy who would really only just pull his stuff. They moved him to unload because all he has to do is move things and not think.. I'd be walking out at 930 or 10 and he's just starting to plug away, kept same pace for a month I'm surprised he kept his job. Likely because people are quitting faster than we can hire. They may want you better, too (of course under UPS threat of punishment) so you can run smalls. Get good at the small ones. They open up some nice jobs you'll be able to get when you get seniority. What you can also do is keep your load reports for the day. I have one from every day I've worked and I keep it in a work folder with everything else. I'll write down what pull I was on, if there were extenuating circumstances. Like having a low PPH but I cleaned up other cars for 3 hours. That way they can't say it was poor performance. Or if I have a lot of misloads, I'll remember it was those 3 days of 4k extra pieces and literally nobody else to come in to work skeleton crew. [/QUOTE]
