Over heard a driver and sup talking the other day.
65 degrees out.
AM temp was 40 degrees.
Driver had on the "rain type" driver UPS jacket.
Sup said that the upper powers were discussing that we are not allowed to wear long sleeves ANYTHING if we are wearing shorts.
Driver said,
"what if it is raining out?"
Sup said.......wait for it........
"that was also discussed and the "powers that be" said if the driver is wearing shorts, then no long sleeves of any kind."
I
you not.
But yet we do not have enough hand trucks.
Airs are sometimes found in my load.
Do to splits, Businesses that SHIP a lot are now getting their deliveries in the PM when they wanted it earlier like they got in the past so they could turn around that product.
Still have 800's in the fleet going out with 200 plus stops.
no better then 50% sucsess rate in getting the proper call tag to the propper trip do to splits.
Driver A crossing threw driver B's area to do a split, while driver B crossing threw driver A's area to do a split.
I am becoming jaded.
