Buy is any food and snacks for Christmas but somehow they will have money to raise the dividend....We can't or don't want to?

I had air stops today and packages going to the same address but was only allowed to do the Saturday work,I could have easily knocked out all of my resi’s in an hour.Saturday volunteers that came to clean up their route for Monday were told that Monday packages were, in fact, not being delivered today. They cut routes, used drivers as helpers, and left thousands of stops in the building. There were plenty of volunteers so each driver could have easily gotten a car with 100 stops.
My theory is that Monday would have been too light if they allowed us to clean up today, so why pay time and a half now when they can just give us an eight hour load on Monday at regular pay. With all the extra loads running Christmas Eve (don't want some snowflake tweeting how UPS ruined their Christmas because their kids' gifts never arrived), they would have been spread too thin with work.
But if I'm blown out on Monday with 250 stops, and they think I'm going to run so I can be home early for Christmas Eve, they've got another thing coming. Estimated bldg return time: 2300

One day you will move up and you will not have to worry about that crapWDFD
I’m lowest qualified cover in my building. (Technically 2nd lowest as another driver qualified just before peak).
I’ve been delivering 6 days since June. M-friend cover then Sat air alternating 3.5hrs and 8hrs every other weekend.
My building is run by idiots. I filed on the BS and am now waiting for results and back pay along with a few new FT bids being posted.
I didn’t drive a little over 2 months of this year, being forced for local sort paid at PT rate 4-5hrs per night on days not driving, yet still have over 2,200hrs this year and there’s 6 ‘covers’ ahead of me that have 100-200 more hours.
It's a good feeling.One day you will move up and you will not have to worry about that crap
While you are out delivering in the cold all night your center manager will be warm at home with his family laughing and having a great time. The last thing on his mind will be you.
Monday will be better .I delivered today ...I came back and saw all the pkgs under belt ..FULL DAY 12 HRS
Monday will be better .
Naaaa center manager will take care of you guys .14 hours
Has anyone pulled @UpstateNYUPSer and told you to retire and be done with it lately?I'm using three helpers this year and about a third of my regular route goes to another driver on a special seasonal run. Usually my route has 150 stops a day, Peak Day my whole area got about 500 stops. I'm all residential in a mostly nice area. Have I told you lately how tough it still is?
Centers have run out of toilet paper and can't order more.Can someone explain this corporate decision?
At this point, the people making the decisions can't even explain them.
