Who runs misloads in your center??

[dudebro]

The driver and the preloader knew if there was a misload. Of course the preloader loaded adjacent cars so a misload was not that big of a deal. Now you have misloads for different towns and zip codes. As far as missing trailers, doesn't that still happen? Can't blame an hourly for that.

It's not so much about blaming the hourly, it's just that misloads happened all the time and just took a ride for a day before they got delivered the next, unless they were really special. Residential deliveries didn't know better.

Tell me in your building every driver was filling out that card that's in the DIAD now.

If it can be serviced. You deliver it... common sence.. but if its out of area, somone will come get it. And handle it....
Customer should not suffer for our employee mistakes..

Should non-affected drivers benefit financially from those same mistakes?

More than a few landed in the send again pile

Especially on Fridays

I was on an audit team back then where I found that a center clerk was writing "TAD" on the service cross. When I asked him what it was, he looked me dead in the eye and said "Tomorrow's Another Day".

This is going to be my first whole year driving(started driving in June of last year) and I will hit 90k just from delivering misloads pretty much every night. Like I said, EASY money.

You're in progression and on a pace to gross $90K?

I am starting my 28th year, have never broken $80K and, yes, I am FT.

We used to call them "blend agains".

At 18.75, he's working 85 hours a week. You just don't hustle like he does...

Leave'em at the Kwik shop, toll booth, fire station or anywhere else the sup happens to dream up

I put a stop to that. They used to tell me to leave them at the fire station. After threatening to write me up, i told them "I will see you in the office in the morning then".

I started cover and just went full time this year but I learned all the hard routes no one ever wants to run so I was never sent home. Got sent back to the hub in the beginning of this year but only for 2 weeks. Usually gross from anywhere from $1,600-$1,900 depending on how many hours I put and the bonus I make on routes. Worked my 60 hours every week for the last 4 months. If I have hours they ask me if I can come in Saturdays to help with air.

I live 15 mins from the hub so I don't mind.

Please tell us that you are maxing our your 401K.

 

[preloader2driver]

Like I said been driving for a year and a half already and I can't complain. Work is hard but the way I look at it there're just "boxes". One stop at a time.

 

[preloader2driver]

*they're

 

[preloader2driver]

No I haven't started my 401K but I definitely will.

 

[no more than 9]

Years ago I used to be able to dance up and down the middle of the car when it was fully loaded.

Not anymore.

Ahh, the good old days, when 130 stops was a heavy day.

 

[upsbeernut]

My loader has 3 cars. The other town are for towns 1hour away. No way they ask me to run those off.

You don't have to lie to kick it in here...but good story anyhow!

You still don't have to lie to kick it in BC. Even if you worked 60 hours a week for a whole year it's not even close to $90k.

If your in the first year of progression, isn't the most you can gross is like 1,300?

Well 60hrs for 52 weeks is just under $69k ($68250 year) ($1312.50 weekly). Maybe the OP is stripping on the side...
