for

. Since i have to drive out and waste 20min of my day. I would understand if it was a female driver or old guy but this guy is physically in shape and young.

So what's your opinion on irreg help, do you ever use it?

Watch what you say or some old guy might kick your young punk ass.

I respect whippersnappers -- but not punks.

I have had a new driver in my area ask for irreg help like 4 times so far this month. I try to be nice to all drivers but i'm gonna start being snappy towards him when i talk to him. Every time i show up i expect it to be a huge hill and extremely heavy. But its a flat surface. Don't get my wrong the irreg is very heavy but i would of been able to easily get it to the door with a handcart or slowly by lifting it for 10 feet, set down, lift another 10 feet, etc.

My point is i have no problem if someone needs me to help with stops since that is between them and management. But asking for irreg help only negatively effects me. Since i have to drive out and waste 20min of my day. I would understand if it was a female driver or old guy but this guy is physically in shape and young.

It's his contractual right to ask for help.


Maybe you could return the favor.

I dunno! Most of us have been curling 150 pounders without any help since you retired! Your Mr. Miyagi karate better be in top form!

Send a message in, and I'll help everyday. I don't really care, but just tell me how to record the time.

Not the point.

If it's so heavy that he has to carry it as quoted above or isn't able to move it by himself on a handcart, no problem with the driver asking for help.

Just don't forget the flour...

...so they can bake a cake after you are done....?

You would record it under "other work".

...other than the driver having to drop what he is doing to run over and help him out...

That's bad

What would you code it as?

I would have to look at which option most closely matches.

Nothing wrong with asking for help.

If it's someone who consistently ask for help to "screw" management then I help at the end of MY day.

 

[UPS Preloader]

More drivers should be asking for help so that UPS will do something to reduce the number of heavyweights on the truck. If you guys keep manhandling these overweights they'll just increase the limit to 200 lbs.

He's being paid, right? If he scheduled an 8 hour day, suppose he could say no couldn't he?

 

[Mst3k]

Don't be an , help your brother/sister in brown out.

Nope.

The guys who call the driver a wussy for asking for help are the same guys who will say you should have followed the methods when u get hurt.
