You know its peak when you clock out at 7:45 at night and feel sorta guilty because everyone else in your loop is still out delivering.
I never feel guilty clocking out when other people are still working.

Call the HONESTY HOTLINE with someone elses phone and report the scum mgmnt.One other item. I pulled the SLAP label off a couple of my missed packages on Friday. We are not allowed to sheet them as missed anymore, they scan them at the hub. Checked the tracking number and got this:
Nashville, TN, United States 12/02/2011 9:28 P.M. Pkg delay-add'l security check by gov't or other agency- beyond UPS control.
12/02/2011 6:26 A.M. Out For Delivery
12/02/2011 3:06 A.M. Arrival Scan
Knoxville, TN, United States 12/01/2011 9:54 P.M. Departure Scan
12/01/2011 7:41 P.M. Origin Scan
United States 12/01/2011 4:06 P.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS
"Pkg delay-add'l security check by gov't or other agency- beyond UPS control." Don't want the customer to be able to get a refund??? I thought integrity was something UPS prided itself on.
there is no doubt in my mind that the district and division managers are in on this. No doubt what so ever.ups does not pride itself on integrity, ups prides itself on screwing both its customers and its employees out of as much money as possble in order to benefit its shareholders.
You need to call the 1-800 number. You also need to file an article 37 grievance. You are being instructed to falsify delivery records, which is a form of coercion, which is a contract violation. Even if the grievance doesnt ultimately prevail, it will have the effect of exposing what your management is doing. Not only are our customers being defrauded out of the refunds that they are entitled to, but the absence of "missed" packages on the report enables your area management to pretend that the "plan" is working....which means that the same thing will happen again next year. the "plan" must be exposed for the failure that it is, which wont happen as long as your management continues hiding the truth.
your $ will be delivered to you by santa and the easter bunny holding hands with jim casey. Thanks for your donation.at that point i would have used my own credit card, turned in the receipt and been reimbursed out of petty cash back at the center.
U take one hour off for lunch....that's how
Correct. My understanding is that your lunch IS included in your 14 hours maximum workable hours allowed per day. So you cannot work over 13 hours on the clock with a 1 hour lunch and you must have 10 hours off from that point. The 60 hours allowable per week does not include time off from lunch. If I am mistaken, someone correct me. This is what we are being told by our sups. Usually don't have to worry about DOT hours so much this early in the year but it's been a rough peak that has started much earlier than previous years. (I'm sure it's the case pretty much everywhere else as well)lunch is not included in your 60 hours. Never has been.

If you are stuck with your truck and can't leave it to go do your own thing, it does count according to the DOT. Paid or unpaid time in the service of your employer.This is correct. Lunch or no lunch, you can only work 14 hours punch to punch.
If you start at 8 AM, you must punch out by 10 PM whether or not you have taken a lunch.
Lunch does not count toward your 60.
Why would you be stuck with your truck? Does the back not lock?If you are stuck with your truck and can't leave it to go do your own thing, it does count according to the DOT. Paid or unpaid time in the service of your employer.
Out on route, you are stuck with the truck. Of course it locks, silly. It's paid or unpaid time in the service of your employer. UPS might not want to include your lunch, but the DOT does. Are you able to walk away from a feeder, jump in your personal vehicle and go have lunch at the Olive Garden with the wifey while in the middle of a trip? That's the point. You are stuck with the truck.Why would you be stuck with your truck? Does the back not lock?
That's not what it means. You are quite welcome to walk away from your truck anytime you are on lunch. You can go into a restaurant, you can shop, you can take a walk.Out on route, you are stuck with the truck. Of course it locks, silly. It's paid or unpaid time in the service of your employer.

I'm not sure.......That's not what it means. You are quite welcome to walk away from your truck anytime you are on lunch. You can go into a restaurant, you can shop, you can take a walk.
The DOT is referring to people like armored truck guards who quite literally can't leave their truck unattended while taking lunch.

I am saying it's part of the 14 hours workable a day. Not in the 12.
