    What's in your tote every morning? ("On Topic")

    I tote next day air, smallest smalls, and air envelopes. I always tote people's medicines. Especially the envelopes half the size of a dollar bill. Anything the size of a softball or smaller, really. With smart scan, it's easier than ever to see the service type on the label. For drivers: What...

    Those who forget peak history are condemned to repeat it

    What's so hard to get?

    Let me start off by saying that I'm a fairly new driver. This is my second peak that I've been a part of. With that being said, it mind boggles me how a company of this satire can be so ran so poorly. It's like they don't even try when it comes to peak. Yet the boast about delivering boxes for...

    Atlanta Snowmageddon ... AGAIN

    3 - 6 inches in and around the Atlanta area at 32° and getting colder. I, myself, am up to snow good. Schools didn't call a snow day ... now parents and news stations are flocking mad. UPS Drivers still out? Corporate employees get their packages at home?

    At What Point....?

    ....does UPS say "uncle"? When will this company tell the truth; that we can't maintain an infrastructure, fleet, and the staffing necessary to accommodate the ever increasing influx of volume for essentially 2 months of the year? How much longer will the Union allow a bunch of pencil neck...

    Peak fun times

    I'm a trainee and was sent to a completely different hub to help out during peak. The building is only 7 years young but it seems like they foolishly didn't make it large enough to handle the heavy volume. Anyway, today they made a mirror route ( never heard of this before) that took of...

    The ship is sinking.... how many missed?

    Work slowdown

    Forced six days. The union has failed us. We still, as individuals, control the work. Walk, don’t run. Hand trucks are for pushing, not pulling. If you need a strap to keep your packages in place, you are overloaded. Hell, you shouldn’t be using a strap to begin with. Utilize crosswalks and...

    Safety first ? Nah.... it's just a fire

    I can't make this stuff up. Evacuate the building ? Nope. @ the CACH Hub in Illinois. Keep slinging those Amazon pkgs.... you mindless troglodytes. Momma needs her case of toilet paper ! -Bug- * Thanks.... to the disgusted UPS Supervisor, for providing the info *

    At least USPS admits they lie

    Why USPS Says a Package Is Delivered When It Isn't Here's Why USPS Says a Package Is Delivered When It Isn't I'm glad that sort of thing does not happen here!

    It happened again

    UPS employees use fake addresses to scam thousands from company This comes up about every 5 years. The funny thing is.... It's usually a collaboration between hourly's and management. Enjoy prison.

    Was I in the Wrong...

    My first stop every morning is the Post Office... I'm there every morning within 10 minutes of leaving the building... I back up to a dock, honking my horn while backing... get up against the dock, go around to the back of the truck, and ring the buzzer button on the wall... its a loud buzzer...

    Arrived in my center this week. Finally! To clarify title, on late air days, your EDD updates all the late air you receive on road. It's all placed in proper EDD order. Now you don't have to arrange your air and keep checking what you have. You can just load them where they belong and...
