[QUOTE="CBUK, post: 432889, member: 10491"] Thanks for all the replies. To be honest it is not what I was expecting. I thought you all stopped for nothing. I certainly don't! I realise it is my last stop. I don't belong to any union. We have one but it holds little weight with UPS in my opinion. I don't feel hard done by and I probably came across as a moaner. I am not. I was annoyed last night because this particular customer has a habit of crying to us when they have a problem. They push it right to the limit and then some. They have fallen out with several of my colleagues and I know of 2 who refuse to even go there to do the collection when asked. This fact may help you to realise what I have to deal with. Yes, I am getting paid by the hour but I generally spend my time labelling boxes for them in an attempt to get away on time. My center manager was off sick today and of course when I got there they had the same problem as last night. I phoned the center manager direct to explain what had happened last night and I have now been told that I have to pull out at 1830. This gets me back to the centre *sorry center* at 1910 giving the local sort just enough time to turn around and get the flyer van to the airport. We sent the feed late last night and airports dont tend to hang around waiting for you to get to them! Big thumbs up to the center manager. What a difference a day makes. Its mentioned further up the thread that my other pickups suffer because of this one. I don't know how things will pan out from here. 9 times out of 10 I am away by 1815. They just really know how to wind me up when they mess things up. PB is a UPS term that stands for Permanent Booking. I thought you would know that. What do you call a daily pickup? Whats a bid list?
