[QUOTE="jibbs, post: 1465947"] He was saying that despite what some people have told them about the average UPS driver's temperament, he still wants to do a good job loading the trucks he's responsible for. He didn't actually call any of you pissy. Crawley, it's going to be difficult as a new hire to make your drivers happy during peak. With your 3 day experience, the drivers should be happy if you simply get the package on the right truck and at least slightly near where it's supposed to go in the truck. Big packages drop to the floor. Even if they're small enough to still fit on the shelf, drop 'em down and write the PAL number on the side of the box you can see for the driver. Essentially, the main goal I would have for myself if I were in your shoes is to make sure you get the packages on the right truck in a timely fashion. Don't worry about perfect loads because you'll drive yourself crazy trying to please the drivers you load for on one hand and the supervisors you work under on the other hand. ....Now that I think about it, are you loading package cars or trailers? I probably should've asked that before I typed all this up..... ehhhhhh..... [/QUOTE]
