[QUOTE="AKCoverMan, post: 1501650, member: 17867"] Harry, with all due respect, hitting the res/com toggle on a truly resi address on your board to make the early commit go away is not a "trick", it's using the system as it's designed to be used. It would be a "trick" and would be dishonest to do it to a commercial address just like marking a commercial stop "NI1" and then selecting "resi" on stop complete to avoid a missed would be. When you create a shipment at ups.com and on I believe most shippers software there is a box the shipper has to check off if shipping to a resi address. If the shipper doesn't check the resi box the default is commercial. This is how 2DA a.m. get sent to resis; the system is "fooled" into believing the address is commercial. (Well, that and people who use handwritten ASDs.) So they show up with a commit time in your board in error because the shipper failed to note the address as a resi. The big issue here is that we are never taught about the different service levels and how commit times vary by zip code and by whether it's a commercial or residential location. There is a lot about the operation that we have to just learn on the job from more senior drivers. [/QUOTE]
