There is never any reason you should be touching that signature screen. If worse comes to worse I would rather DR it then touch that and type something in.

That’s Craptacular
One of the drivers I went out as a helper with this summer not only scanned an air before we got to the.stop so it wouldn't be late....but also he signed the.diad at 2 businesses that were closed (it was the day before 4th of July and some places were closing early). He scanned and handed me the packages and diad both times...was instructed to ring the back door...if no one answered...to leave the package anyway and come back. Both times when I WAD and handed him back the board....i saw him sign it. Lucky for him I'm not a rat.

I was a witness on a shop stewards grievance for drivers working off the clock. So they were looking for anything they could hang me for.

Just to clarify...was it impossible to get a second sig?
I definitely wouldve taken my chances with a D R.
You didnt sign the customers name so no legal problems there. Just a questionable decision. Hardly worth losing a job.

Bleedinbrown, the driver you helped not only violated policy but also broke the law by forging a legal document. Two drivers from our building work for Fed Ex now for that.
Unlearn that one.

I don't get why people make this job so difficult. Do everything by the book and if/when a sup says otherwise, ask them to put it in writing.
You should have DR the remaining packages than you won't have been in this predicament.
I don't and will never sign someones name or write anything on the sig line of the DIAD. If I can't find anyone to sig for the package or they busy and can't and ther package isn't sig requested and the location isn't a no DR stop in the DIAD I will DR the package or packages and leave them where someone will have to trip over them or sit on them.

Now you know the rest of the story. See above^
He most likely did it out of convenience or perhaps because he was rushed.
Since writing "POS" is not any type of approved method, he must have learned it from someone, a supervisor seems most likely.
Can anyone tell us if "signature on file" at a business would hold up as an approved method at a hearing, because supervisors teach it around here.

I can't believe people are willing to gamble a great paying job for something stupid like that. Just have the guy sign twice.

Every time I get fired I get a little wiser. Sooner or later they will create an unstoppable beast. Lol. I've had a woman answer the door breast feeding a new born. I will now have to tell her to go set the child down just to get a signature for a lame package. They don't realize by trying to "show me who is boss" with this situation by firing me for something ignorant because I was a witness on a grievance. The customer will now suffer because of situation like theses.

"Every time I get fired..."? How many times have you been fired?

Is signature on file in the same category as SDN that never gets turned in or lost
The job is a learning process.
