[QUOTE="soberups, post: 429252, member: 14668"] I refuse to turn in Sales Leads for international volume on my route. Our management team has decided that "international holds" will be charged to the driver and that disciplinary action can result from having too many holds. I have 30 pickups to do in a 90-minute window of time. That works out to 180 seconds per pickup, including driving time between each stop. If I fail to maintain that pace, I will miss the air shuttle and all of the East Coast Next Day Air that I have picked up will be service failures. The idea that within this timeframe I should somehow be expected to audit the invoices on all 20 or 30 of the international packages that I get each day for clerical errors, much less wait around at a pickup for those errors to be corrected, is absurd. I simply do not have the time. 180 seconds per stop. It isnt gonna happen. Until UPS decides to reevaluate this idiotic policy, I have no choice but to regard all international packages as threats to my job. Only a fool would submit sales leads for packages that will potentially get him fired. [/QUOTE]
