Anybody else getting complaints about the implementation of DIM weight change?

[TUT]

Got word that dim wt has reverted back to only happen if over 5184 cubic inches. Must have gotten too many ccomplaints.

You can simply go to UPS.com right now and type in some numbers and see that the Dim Weight is still in effect. That said like any contract, these are negotiable, I'm certain some customers have had their Dim Weights reduced or waived in full. Perhaps some of the rumor is from a customer getting their dims waived.

Our customer counter is not charging for it, up to 5184 cubic inches. That is retail rates.

Maybe CC not charging dim wt, but others methods are. I'll ask a BD person when I see one

Be glad for it as it helps pay for the friend/T UPS drivers compensation.
Shorter, smaller and lighter paid for the P/Timers already.

And the fat, lazy overweight supervisors that couldn't do our jobs.

Correct. Dim weight for customer counter, ups store etc is going back to the old formulas. They get no discount like regular shippers do.

You still have better pension benefits and the opportunity to retire at 55 you got to admit that.

Only because the teamsters aren't stealing and mismanaging our pension. Ups allocates far less to our penaion and hw then they do for teamsters. The IAM does a good job managing the pension monies and they get more then mgmt.

You let us know when you find that unicorn.

Fortunately, the majority of (real) dead weight is in management.

It makes Union employee jobs.... that much easier.

Not in my hub luckily. Everyone knows who the dead weight is and it's one senior guy who's out on medical more than he works.

Seriously sick of Fingerhut (label reads BBI). Lost a payroll service account and got them? We got the end of the stick.

Yeah, I just made that up. You got me.

Why would you think I made that up? I am telling you that the CC in my city is no longer charging dim wt pricing for smaller packages, that is 100% true.



P.S. At least I'll know what to do with that unicorn when I find it.

The unicorn is the b.d. employee.

Where did this word come from? Because none of my shippers had heard anything about this.

Oh, sorry. I usually see them quite frequently

CC not charging it anymore, but checked my account, and it is. Will check with BD when I see them.
