UPS logic: take all the good, seasoned preloaders off their loads and have them load peak resi routes. Meanwhile, the worst/laziest/dumbest seasonal butthole will load your business heavy route that's blown to smithereensXmas is always crazy, just hoping for my regular loader so I have a chance.
I’d bet those eggplant peak drivers actually have full trucks, too. None of that empty at 10am stuff! Rough! Lol
Almaden? you guys are effed again this Peak! {{{{all year}}}}My building has 4 permanent MDU’s that routinely run up to about 60 routes off of year round. At peak we run another smaller one off of one of them and we are currently renting a building next door that they call a “village” that runs about 100+ routes out of during peak. Yeah we are a cluster to say the least. The surrounding buildings don’t fair much better.
Last year for peak we had something similar. People parked at A Menards lot about a mile away and waited for the bus. In the morning it was ok. But waiting for a shuttle bus after 12-14 hours of work sucksOur BA sent out a mass email telling us that the company plans to use the employee parking lot to stage trailers, starting in October. They leased a parking lot 2 miles away, they’ll be shuttling us to the building on a bus.
Oh yes.....definitely will be another cluster. Best part is that we have front row seats.Almaden? you guys are effed again this Peak! {{{{all year}}}}
If the new contract goes through you better file on the heaters not working.We have a brand new dog house just put up on the back of our hub. Heaters work awesome! Any other hubs have their peak season doghouse up yet?
We have a second, much older dog house used for peak that all the temps are in. It's on the Northern side of the hub and the heaters don't work. It's awesome on single digit temperature days.
I'm about 45 miles north of you on 680. We are in the same predicament. But your building is far worse. Hang in there brotherOh yes.....definitely will be another cluster. Best part is that we have front row seats.
I understand, but this thread was meant to be about the temporary dog houses for peak. They type of dog house which will be removed some time in the new year.
Hope this helps.
