Is this nationwide or just Atl?

It’s fine with the DOT, its national.

I put in my 10.5 hours this week. Guess I have a ways to go now.

 

[dookie stain]

Lol...won’t be in a Saturday all peak. Promise you that.

10 hour rest and 34 hour reset still applies.

What a joke. The 70hr rule was made for feeder drivers, not package drivers who are in an out of their truck 200 times a day lifting heavy packages

It's going to take somebody getting killed before ups realizes how serious the negative effects of this 70hr work week can get.

It’s alright with the DOT, its national.

See I've been told it's nationwide and I've been told it's not.

 

[Covemastah]

It's nation wide

Just told the same thing out west.....told that our companies future is on the line. You hear that Abney.....you have your head in your and now your employees and their families are the ones paying for it. Perhaps you need to be reminded that we are employed by UPS not owned by UPS.

Hoping I have enough FMLA left to make it until December 22.

If we all had just 1 upstate in our center... we would all be caught up

So they can predict the future now?

Because it seems every day they are way off

The general public should know about the potential danger the Company’s decision to work exhausted drivers 70 hours a week puts them in.

 

[Jackburton]

The real question that needs to be asked, if 70 hours is ok now, why isn’t it year round?

 

[Box Ox]

On the way!!

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

I believe they can only do that in November and December

Don't give them any ideas!
Dave may suddenly disappear only to end up in the experimental labs in the Ivory Towers.
The scientists ultimate goal is a superior race kinda like the guy named......give me a minute......Adolf.

Because safety takes holiday vacations?
