[QUOTE="Fredless, post: 184417, member: 5197"] My eyes are seeing it Mr. Manager. Why else have you made PAS? Its not to save fuel primarily or to deliver better customer service like you claim, its to eliminate to skilled jobs of the preloader and the driver. PAS has been in my center for almost 3 years now, and last peak was awesome at my center..and I told my on road this (I am just an air driver) and he said "next year, every driver will make 9.5 during peak. we will make pas work." Just like the whiteboard campaign with the delivery intercept. It used to take me 1 minute or so to pull a DCR from the log, and address get the package address corrected, held etc. Now with the UDI incorporated into the tracking system, the UPS UDC and E2DC programs automatically see the delivery intercept and in 10 seconds or less I can have the package address corrected and on the belt. May seem like a small difference, but add that up over 100's of packages, that eliminates a job and makes the job that more easy to pickup from someone who has no knowledge of our system. I still believe PAS was created, and why UPS has kept it is to break the Union. If we go on strike in 2008 and UPS actually has the PAS system ironed out by then, we will rely on the pilots more than ever. Any dummy can look at a PAS label, load it on the truck and the driver doesn't really have to know what his next 10 stops are in the truck anymore either, look at EDD, grab the package and go. How skilled will the scab really have to be during a strike? [/QUOTE]
