[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 276357, member: 12570"] The ODS messages that frustate me the most are when they basically summarize what was said in the PCM usually 30 minutes earlier and then again 2-3 hours later. For example, yesterday we were reminded that, if using a helper, that we needed to put 25 stops in the helper board. They reminded us of that 30 minutes after we left bldg and then 3 hours later asked us to let them know how many stops were in the helper board. They have also reversed themselves on the lunch policy. Prior to peak, we were allowed to put as little as one minute in for our lunch and would be paid for the remaining 44 minutes; now we are told to put "at least" 30 minutes in to the board and must call to ask permission to alter that if we have a family event that we are trying to get home to. Of course, they ODS us several times during the day to remind us of the "revised" lunch policy. Mgt knows they have a captive audience so we have little or no control over this. Packages first, people second. As much as mgt communicates with us during the day, there are times when we wish that they would pass information along that they don't. For example, one of our drivers' son injured himself at school during gym. His wife called the center and asked them to let the driver know--they didn't. Just this past week one of our drivers' mother had passed away after having routine surgery. He didn't find out until he got off the road. [/QUOTE]
