All I can say is, when they come to take my guns, they are going to get the bullets first.
You're assuming the other guy works at a normal pace, when you should be assuming he's a slacker, which is most often the case. So I don't think ButBenefitsAreGreat should have to slow his probably normal pace down to match that of his lazy co-workers. If I'm wrong you can call me names.

Jealousy is sucha funny thing. Every one looking around at what every body else looks like, is driving, lives in, does for a living. Jealous people are some of the most miserable in the world, as it is never satisfied. Ever.
And when we dont, we feel like something is wrong. We are the ones out of step with reality.
Why do you really care what your coworker is doing. Are you training to become a sup? If not, then its none of your business.
Personally, I always do the best job a personally can, each day every day. Sometimes I would blow the numbers out the door, other times they would stink. But I always gave it my best. And with it comes a feeling of self pride that very few others understand.
As for being a yes guy and accepting work from others, a totally different subject. If you dont mind being the LDI every night, go for it. You will get more work than you can deliver every day. And after a while, it will not be extra work, it will become part of your route. And that means a lot more over time each and every day, without the ability to get in.
Something I did not mind doing, but it does get old after a while. Especially if you try to have a life outside of UPS.
That being said, it is funny how you can take a 9 hour day for a driver, take work off, and it still is a 9 hour day. Take off two more hours, and the driver still takes 8.98 hours to deliver it. So why should they cut in routes and put more people out on road if that is the return on their decisions?
So do your job, to the best of your ability each and every day, no matter who is watching, and what the others are doing.

The center manager was so excited that she ran out and bought prepaid cell-phones as recognition awards....lol. The loaders thought it was a scam, to make them more accessible!! so they chose the T-Shirt instead.... LOL

I think you answered your question for me. center manager knows that when I get extra work it will be done with a high degree of quality; safely and with no residual problems like complaints or tracers. Since I have to "work as directed", I can't refuse and save my body and get home at a relatively decent hour. What do I get for respect? center manager running into the men's room telling me to urinate on my time, not the company's time.
If you are sincere in your post about giving respect to your go to guys, cutting them slack when possible, and spreading out the extra work, then I applaud you. I'd also appreciate juice and bagels every once in a while, to be perfectly honest.
From my perspective, however, I don't see this where I am. (or where I've been)
Was he serious? Even the breaks are on company time.
Does he want you to whip it out and urinate all over the boxes?
