    What’s the rudest message you’ve ever received on the DIAD?

    received one on Saturday. “You’ve only delivered 30 stops. You’re NOT NEW ANYMORE!” This was my 3rd Saturday on this blind route. So I drove around angry for the next 7 hours. That’s safe!

    Benefits of a Part-Time Supervisor / Landing a Full-Time Position

    Hi, I started as a part-time supervisor back in May. I have a degree but I haven't been able to find a decent position. I was wondering what are the raises for part-time sup's? Are there any bonuses? You can obviously tell that my compensation at this position is very low. With a degree, can I...

    On Topic - Workplace Harassment

    Our hub has been hiring a lot of people over the last year. It's a revolving door and always has been. Now there are more workers who have felonies that we have to work around. Some of them are trouble makers and moved from dept. to dept. My situation is this: I went to help at the end of...

    Late air - Is this widespread? What's going on?

    For the past 2 months, we've had late air 2-3 times a week, every week. Either requiring on road meets or waiting in the building for a half hour. The "normal" frequency is more like a late air day once every 2-3 weeks (at least in my center). I'm in the northeast. Is this a problem stemming all...

    Article 41, Section 2(b) FT Progression Question

    - skip to bottom for question - I was a bid Air Driver part-time for about 5 years. One of the best jobs I've ever had. Evening pickups which were the same every day, no mental stress, virtually same variables every day, and I only worked about 20-23 hours per week so I could still actually...

    Hardship Transfers?

    A few weeks ago my spouse was given news that we could cut our income in half or move 7 hours away to another facility. I've been a ft sup for right at a year & I can't justify leaving the company entirely at this point for my family to make the move. I also can't stay in our current location...

    New supervisor problems......

    We have a new supervisor at our hub that is trying to prove themselves. :hangover: This person has been going around pissing everyone off. We have been tolerant but now it's starting to get worse since this person seems to not care. Is there any way we can get this person to calm down with the...

    Part Time Supervising is the worst job EVER. If you're considering it, DO NOT DO IT.

    I just wanted to say I regret taking this position. My stress has continually skyrocketed along with my health deteriorating. I believe I even got carpal tunnel from operating this ridiculous computer system. I hope this job becomes automated because no one and I mean no one should work this...

    Peak Panic is setting in...

    ...and its hilarious. Our center manager this morning was practically begging us to find peak season helpers. Our manager claims that they need 47 helpers, and that they only have 6 at the moment. Sucks when you try to pay people a pittance and then there's Amazon ready to pay you more to be...

    Been working for UPS for only 2 months and am already considering quitting my job as a preloader.

    It's only been two months and I've already just had it up to here with the idiots in management. I'm already having a bit of difficulty getting along with one supervisor(who's your typical :censored:bag UPS supervisor). He's already threatened to fire me before peak season if I don't meet up his...
