[QUOTE="soberups, post: 789427, member: 14668"] The appropriate way to deal with a situation like that would be to first ask the other drivers if they wanted to do the stop and drive a pkg car out there and back. [I]If none of them want the work[/I] and a lower seniority person is on the verge of getting forced to go back out, then I dont see a problem with running the stop off yourself on the way home as long as you are paid for the time. I have done that on a handful of occasions over the last 23 years. Sometimes...particularly if it is medication or airline tickets or a birthday/wedding gift...its just the right thing to do. I am aware of nothing in the contract that prohibits it as long as you are on the clock and being paid for all hours worked. One thing to be aware of is that your personal automobile insurance might not pay a claim if you are involved in an accident while using your car for work purposes. And UPS's insurance will cover you for liability only, any damage to your car becomes your problem. Its not a good idea to make a habit out of delivering packages in your personal vehicle. [/QUOTE]
