[QUOTE="HomeDelivery, post: 860707, member: 33696"] back to the OP's statement... wow, if someone does that at a FedEx building, he'd get fired! hand-to-surface is practiced in my terminal. I actually care for the customers' parcels & if i even see a box that looks like an accordian, i'll refuse to deliver it unless Quality Assurance repacks it in a fresh box or put an inspection sticker on it... I also take a few seconds if a box is not really closed up correctly by using some tape to actually secure it shut before loading it in my vehicle... Ground/ Home Delivery doesn't get paid by the hour, so it's a mixed bag if some drivers care about the parcels in their vans or not. eventhough i only make a fraction of what Express or UPS makes in the same time frame, i still have some standards about being the final delivery person that handles the customers' packages to their conclusions... some of us do work over 8 hours a day, but don't get Overtime Pay like you guys, thus inflating the company's overall profit margins (we get paid by the stop, so some will "run n gun" while someone like me will have less stops per road hour because i'll practiced what i was trained to do SAFELY; no more going over the speed limit ~ much) (i'm only doing this FT for the summers, then joining up during peak as an hourly employee through a temp agency, because my stops-per-road-hour sucks during the blizzards of the past years) [/QUOTE]
