[QUOTE="Ricochet1a, post: 891552, member: 22880"] The same person that verified that the Ground pickup PUX is present in the powerpad checked today to see if that same PUX is available for non-dropbox stops. It isn't. The PUX for Ground is only available when the stop is opened as a dropbox - not as a regular or oncall stop. He did check on the pieces he scanned and they needed no further scans before they were retreived by a Ground driver at the Express station - so the scans he placed on the pieces were indeed revenue generating scans. No one was aware that this PUX existed, not even the managers at the station it appears. While this gives Express a way to clear drop boxes of Ground volume, it doesn't change the fact that RLA classified employees are engaged in movement of non-express pieces. Given that Fred has his RLA status secured for the next 6+ years (until another Democrat controlled Congress and President potentially occurs), nothing is going to change becuase of this, since politics and not administrative procedure is what is keeping Express under RLA. Still, I'd have to recommend that you scan every Ground package you can get your hands on. If there is going to be issues from this arising, might as well force the issue with a flood of Courier PUP-ed Ground volume. [/QUOTE]
