Insane is a perfectly fitting description for our time allowances! Well said!i dont think i could maximize my sales time stopping at each customer for 12 seconds or whatever insane number they give you all!
I don't think driving around in the A\C in your four wheeler sipping latte's is quite the same but nice try thoughof course you feel that way - everyone should always want more money. i drive around all day long, every day, putting my life in danger for this company. i deal with the public, just not in a package car. maybe I should get a raise too?!?

Maybe if you used proper methods
I was sitting at a red light, watching two young boys walk their bikes across a state highway. One behind the other. Then a car, without braking, hit the second boy. I put my head down and thought briefly about what I just witnessed. Then I put my hazards on, jumped to the street, stopped traffic both ways, and then had the courage to look at the boy 150 feet away. I left after the police arrived.The setting sun was in perfect position to blind the driver of the oncoming car. This type of situation, although rare, occurs on a regular basis in package car. My point being, package car is own unique animal.please...it's summer...it's slurpee season

This brings up a question. Another driver and I were having a discussion about if you see an accident and there are injuries should you stop to help. When I was working for the company I was at before I came here, I witnessed several and always stopped to help. How does UPS feel about this? I was a salaried driver at the other company. I don't know if they would have had a problem with it had I been hourly.I was sitting at a red light, watching two young boys walk their bikes across a state highway. One behind the other.

If I was to ever become a driver I would take the truck home one day, close the door that splits the cab and shelves area and then take a hose to that the whole shelves area and wash off a good amount of the years and years of crap buildup. Haven't decided yet what to do with the cab itself but I know I would not want to drive those grime buckets around all day.

And to this date, I still wonder how I would have finished my day (if I was caught inside), or even finished my week, or even if I would just quit.
And I wonder how UPS would deal with it, if I needed longer time off work, then they expect.
They'd probably accuse you of stealing time. Probably make you sign something to the effect of "If I hadn't been chatting with the customer so long I would've been outta there before it was robbed."
of course you feel that way - everyone should always want more money. i drive around all day long, every day, putting my life in danger for this company. i deal with the public, just not in a package car. maybe I should get a raise too?!?
