I think so. It’s bothered me off and on for years but it’s been hurting nonstop for the last few months.

I had rotator cuff surgery right before I retired. I did it on the job pulling a 5th wheel handle. I think I was off around 9 months. Lots of rehab days as well.

Ummm you do know you don't have to flick the bean manually anymore

I know.

 

[oldngray]

I tore mine but didn't get surgery. Took over a year to heal. For the first couple of months I could barely lift my arm over my shoulder.

When I hurt it years ago, I had those cheap bamboo back scratchers everywhere. Lol.

 

[Turdferguson]

Yeah, that wouldn’t work for us. We’d be told, too bad, you were told months ago.

Then I would have gotten a note from my doctor saying I can't help them out and drive. I am doing them a favor

I was about to retire. I didn't want a bum shoulder hindering my fishing rod casting after I retired. I got it fixed on the company dime.

No time commits on anything?

ups would relax the time commits near the end of peak

They started doing that today------all of the NDA is EOD.

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

never was lucky enough to have no time commits

they would push back NDA for 1.5 hours

...and that is what I thought they would have done starting today....I have never seen NDA relaxed until 1800...

I have a "trigger finger" that I will have fixed while on my pre-retirement vacations and, yes, I will collect disability for the surgery.

Two drivers in my Center, Orion has after 4:30 AM return to building. Wtf????

We had a guy get done at 4a.m. one year. The day before he had been chewed out for not delivering all his load. I was amazed he didn't get shot running around at that time of night in a rental of all things.

How is that possible? 14 hour rule violation?

I will be bringing a ton of work back today for sure.

He was a "peak driver" . He didn't care. In fact he quit after that.

I’m sure that was before the whole DOT rules went into effect.

What kind of a UPS man are you? You’re supposed to deliver that stuff.

I can always remember working under a 12 hour rule. If you were in danger of going over 60 hours a week they would hunt you down,drag you out of your truck and take you out of service.

Lol. I worked many 14 hour days until the DOT rules got strict.

 

[el blanco]

Only one time did I have to park the truck, shut it down, and clock out before going over 14.

I was about 7 miles from the center, and the on-road that came out to get me had his sleep pants on.
