Ac in pkg car

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

I disagree AC would work just fine.

Have you ever delivered?

Have you ever delivered?

What is your point?
Yes.

 

[trickpony1]

Yes.

You delivered the required 30 days before entering the internship?

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

What is your point?
Yes.

Then you should know that these trucks aren't designed to keep cold in during the summer or heat in during the winter time.

In most cases they don't have enough run time in-between stops to effectively heat up or cool down

Think about it

Disagree.

I think AC would significantly improve the situation.

Disagree.

I think AC would significantly improve the situation.

In most cases it wouldn't have a chance to work. Sure it would be nice but I believe it would actually do very little

Hard to respect the opinion of someone that’s never done the job.

IMO Some day we’ll find out.

Until then the air conditioners in all the offices should be immediately removed.

You are entitled to respect whatever you want for whatever reason you want.

Nonconstructive bluster.

And then.... there is this.


Section 17. Vehicle Integrity

"The Employer agrees to maintain all door and engine compartment seals in order to eliminate, as much as possible, fumes, dust and moisture in the package car."

I guess I isn't going to answer my question?

 

[Integrity]

Nonconstructive bluster.

I am completely serious.

When large corporations that oppress the working man with unacceptable working conditions get the working man to justify the behavior of their oppressors because of money, they have the workers right where they want them.

Seeking to have UPS provide AC in their vehicles and facilities is a just cause.

Thanks for pointing this out. The dust in the cargo of our package cars is insane. Will have a conversation with the steward in the morning.

I agree that facilities should be properly air conditioned, but if you want to make a real impact on the road, ensure the cargo of these PCs is properly vented.

What is your position with the company?

Nothing to do with the condition of the vehicles. They just aren't designed to be comfortable

Honestly, solar powered exhaust fans on the back of the truck and additional vents in the front to get air flow into the cargo area would probably be a sufficient solution. Hell, I'm sure they can do something more than the tiny little 5 inch fan that are in some (not all) package cars and make most of the drivers happy.
