I don't recall Upstate ever complaining or reporting a post related to him.
Others report posts often where people take swipes at Upstate.
I think you are correct that he likes it ... it should make him feel superior.
He doesn't have your home number.
I think you guys are confused what a "back first" is. It's when you start the truck and throw it into reverse before putting it in drive. You are suppose to first turn around (if backing needed) ,make your delivery then when you get into your car you go into drive first.
Why would he pay you?Upstate you just stole the picture I posted. I have the rights to that picture so pay up.
Why would he pay you?
It's all about him, you know!
I am hoping to teach an old dog new tricks...
yes they are now telling us that we have to drive past the stop and turn around in the cul de sac and drive back to the stop then make delivery out of the driver side door. WTF i was always taught to pull up even with the door on the house to have a straight shot. i guess some ***** in Atlanta sitting in a corner cubicle is trying to get promoted and thought of this fantastic idea.
Wrong. It has to be a certain distance for it to not register as a back first exception. I was shown a report where I delivered to a house on my right then I drove like 5 or 6 houses down and backed into a driveway to get turned around. It was the safest place to get turned around. Supervisor said they don't agree with it being considered a back first but nothing they can do about it.You will not have a back first exception if you drive for a short distance before backing up. In your cul-de-sac example, you can make the delivery per the methods (passenger door), then turn around in the cul-de-sac and you will not have a back first exception. What they are trying to discourage is nosing in at a delivery stop or parking such where there is a good chance that you may get blocked in and not have a clear exit path.

That's pretty much it. Work safe and do your job and don't worry about telematics.I back when I need to back. I'm the driver.

I will normally just back in to a side street but unfortenlty this was a dead end street with no cul de sac and I only backed far enough to get turned around. Let's say there was a cul de sac same distance and I had to back bc couldnt get turned around I still would have been on reporI avoid driveways and really avoid backing into driveways. It's not worth the risk,and is in violation of the methods. I'll always drive down the street until I can get turned around without going onto someone's property
