[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 856500, member: 12570"] 1) Parcel containing ice cream ( clearly marked), off route. 3000 section near front, found pretty early looking for a 1000 section that I couldn't find. Sent misload message. As I am working toward area where off route is send 1 more message, should I deliver. No response from them. I should note there was at least four hours between messages. Plenty of time to respond or contact someone for delivery instructions (on OMS end). Believing that I'm going to be told to deliver it, I do. Unbeknownst to me there is road work and delivery takes way more than the 10 mins it should have. Fast forward to 8:00 PM and I am now in jeopardy of missing air trailer, instructed to bring back as missed whatever I have to, to make air trailer. Next day VERY stern talking to.
