Drivers not finishing?

[andrsnbkj]

My wife makes sure I always finish.

Satisfy her as well or you'll be replaced by the postman

How's that stream flowing?

Freely and frequently
Hoping the flow will leave
no stone unturned

I've been out till 8-9pm every night so far. We have to call in after we finnish so we can go take stops off other drivers. I run off about 100 or stops myself and make my helper do the rest while I sort the truck and get the next stops ready. Also, my load quality is so ty, I have about 10 misloads every night im instructed to sheet as missed.

 

[watdaflock?]

They are cramming us so bad we have a lot of drivers not finishing and returning with work. This is just causing a snowball effect. How about you guys ?

Welcome to peak, you must be new here.

Not sheeting as EC. Dishonesty. If the center team wants to change it, it is on them. I doubt I will receive a warning letter for sheeting honestly.

...no but you might get one for failure to work as directed...

Yea right.
Do you know any manager stupid enough to issue a warning letter for failure to work as directed when he is directing the employee to falsify delivery records?

I would promptly file a grievance for directing me to falsify records.
The warning letter would be withdrawn.

In case your BOG management team conveniently forgot to mention it...
E/C is no longer to be used unless weather or another actual emergency caused you to bring back stops.

Ask them about it. They got the memo. No more EC for over-dispatching.

 

[SCV good to go sir.]

Two days in row, over 100 packages on both days. To add insult to injury, it's my fault. I give them my ****ing best when they give me the impossible and then they on me. Although it's going to hurt me financially, I can't wait to see what happens to this company when they're no longer able to coast on the brand reputation from yesteryear. The only people that should hold stock in this company should be the ones doing the labor.

Why is it your fault?

Brought back stops Tuesday and Wednesday. 13.5 hours on clock Monday and lil over 12.5 both Tuesday and Wednesday. Thursday it was like someone turned the spigot off. Went out with half the stops I was dispatched with day before, finished in 8.25 hours.

Not sure what to expect tomorrow.

It's always the hourlies fault. Management is infallible.

I bet the whistleblower in the air falsification lawsuits issue would have a different comment.
From the Bahamas.

Work as directed then grieve.

Our center manager never instructed us to use EC as a dispatching tool.

Well Monday for us was terrible ....preload didn't finished cause the trucks was full and they had trailers left to unload. So many stuff was on the belts they had to reload it and unload it again. A lot of drivers were missing bulk/pkgs/stops so they told us not sheet anything as missed.

Today I have a 9 hr day

Similar for me. They want us for hours Friday. Probably buried again.

Wrong.

Are you going to break the law, lie, commit theft (which is what this "directed" order from management amounts to) and then grieve it when you have a choice to or not to commit fraud?

Drivers have been taken out of service for that after the fact.

 

[10 point]

Where things are done with integrity,
by people who care and who dare
to find positives rather than negatives.

That was phased out after stock went public?

 

[SCV good to go sir.]

Why is it your fault?

Because management and their Mickey Mouse numbers said so. I probably should have put quotes around that part to indicate it was tongue in cheek.

 

[Brownslave688]

Not a chance.


This is a case you don't have to work as instructed. Now personally I would never go on my own and sheet them missed. I always send a message back saying you can sheet them if you want but if I do it I'm sheeting them missed.

Tongue in cheek, not your fault. Tongue out of cheek, well....

Finally someone with some intelligence

Drivers are NOT known to finish well ... they just peter out.
