[QUOTE="AKCoverMan, post: 1115347, member: 17867"] Dishonesty is the quick kill death at UPS. I've seen three drivers let go and never return during my six years driving.. one for faking jury duty (went in for duty first day and was dismissed but called in for two weeks saying he was on a case), one for throwing an NDA letter in a trash dumpster to avoid sheeting it as a late (really!), and one guy who no show/no called nearly every Friday for a year..to the point where they did not even put him on his route on the board on Fridays and if he showed up it was just a happy surprise. But next Monday he would be back without fail. The first two were gone in no time, never to return. The attendance issue guy was terminated several times and went through many processes before he was really and truly fired. So anything that might possibly have any kind of perception that I might be doing something dishonest I raise the red flag via ODS messages so it's all documented.. example if the center is telling me to sheet sometime closed while not at business I make sure that they send that instruction via ODS. Had a misload for a military base the other day, center told me to sheet it as "security" since it was too late to get onto the base. But the real reason it didn't get delivered is because we misloaded it so I don't like using "security". Made em send it via ODS. But I never worry about calling in sick. [/QUOTE]
