9.5 Peak?

[Jackburton]

Overtime has been cancelled this peak.

This is the peakest weak season ever.

Have to wait for 2 guys to retire. 1 guy will retire 15 months from now, the others are all my age, they will retire about the same time I do. In 15 months, I'll be the top guy on the cover board, until a feeder school bid goes up.

You have 15 months left to retire and your a cover driver ?

 

[Poop Head]

Its a great time to be a ups driver

One guy will retire in 15 months. The other guys are the same age as me. We will all retire about the same time.

56 hours last week. 56.5 this week.
No missed. No late. About what I worked weekly the last few years during peek.

Our center manager refuses. He does not want to pay double time.

Not his call...corporate is at the helm of this ship.

So what. Just put your name on the list. The amount of guys that go back in ridiculous so I would let that deter you.

Never thought I'd see a peak where I was looking for more hours, but here we are. I had two 8 hour days this week. 43 hours for the M-friend although we're working Saturday to stay ahead of it.

Same week last year I worked just shy of 60 hours.

Don’t expect any more hours after peak.

Word coming down from above no one is to be over 9.5 after the new year. Hire whoever you need to put in all the routes you need. No one over!!!!

I saw that report, it's true.

I hope that's true. But why do you think this is?? Such a drastic change. What's the end-game?

Who knows really. Could be as simple as wanting the smallest back pay checks possible and all goes back to normal the day the contract is done.

Hiding in my closet again?

Common sense. Less fatigued drivers rushing around so they can get off at a decent time = less accidents/injuries.
Better morale.
Less $60 an hour ot payouts.
More efficient preload/less misloads with trucks only half full.

Actually the accident frequency hasn't went down

22.4' will make it worse. We will be lucky to get 40. I see it.

Yup. In my center, under 9.5 is still in place during peak. It's nuts the amount of rentals we have running around taking work off all the routes everyday.

Too early to tell don't you think? We're in peak, I'm assuming accident frequency climbs during this time of the year. The whole "under 9.5" effort was initiated about a month ago for us
That's another thing, less 9.5 payouts
