Eh..hindsight is 20/20....I've done a couple of things at ups over the years that I was lucky enough not to get caught or I probably would've been fired...nothing theft related though.

Had a supervisor get fired.
He sent a next day air out,with a bogus air bill.
Came back,bad address. he got fired.
How stupid can you be??

Had a FT sup in another center that used to drink on the job....he got so wasted one morning...he passed out on his office floor...someone called 911 and they took him to the hospital. He was fired...did a 30 day program...and came back. He got caught drinking again a few months later and was walked out.
Sounds like a DM,that I used to have.

Heard of this time a driver was giving it to this female clerk (doggystyle) in one of the empty offices. Someone walked in and caught them right smack dab in the middle. Ratted them out. Both got their job back. Drivers wife stayed with him. This was years ago when I was part-time and I thought it was super funny.

He was a decent guy...had a family...just was hooked on vodka and didn't want to give it up.

We had a driver get ticked off that he had a heavy dispacth when OSU was playing in the national championship game he drove his package car home to to watch the start of the game. Unfortunately he fell asleep and around 10:00 they found his pc parked in his driveway. They woke him to tell him not to come in the next day. By the way, the Buckeye's lost.
Had a sup,get transferred,having sex with a female driver.
Happened again, his wife made a big stink about it. he eventually got canned.

Was this before the days of telematics?

Before. This guy was already on his fifth or sixth "second chance" and he made the mistake of throwing a hissy fit in the morning that when he didn't show up at the building he was already on their radar.

Okay I'll throw this out there...... because I'm curious to know if anyone else ever heard this story....which actually did happen.
When I first started at ups, my center manager at the time told me this story of a driver years back (so this is more than 10-15 years ago)....in a different building somewhere...who was hired around peak time. His first day on the road...he heads out...and at the end of the day...doesn't return to the building. So his boss tries to track him down and finally calls his house. Turns out the driver drove the PC home...he thought he had ALL WEEK to deliver the packages!

Happened at a summer internship I had a couple years ago. Didn't rat them out though. Tough to do that when the head of HR is your mother....

We had an on-car that had at least one DWI on his record, which he properly hid...for a while, until he received another one and he was fired when the DMV records came to light.

A driver in our barn didn't get fired over this but it was just as effective...
This driver called in sick so he could "visit" his new girlfriend. A woman (with some kids in her car) pulled up beside the coverage driver as he was delivering the cheating driver's bid route and asked where "John" was.
The cover driver said "Oh, he called in sick...he's probably home". The woman said "I dont think so. I just came from there. I'm his wife". End of story (and marriage). You play... You pay.

This is why you don't bid your home area.

His (former) bid area wasn't close to his home. His wife was just in the metro area where his bid was that day and came looking for him because he wouldn't answer his phone. Probably had it on VIBRATE for some reason.
