AND THAT’S THE BOTTOM LINE
Gotcha. Wasn’t trying to chastise you, just banter. I wonder what makes a pkg a shipper release? Obviously they are super cheap pkgs, maybe not refundable. So what kind of crap falls under those parameters?

Shipper release is just an option anyone can choose to have on the package, and of course all surepost are shipper release. You'll know because every shipper release package will prompt the shipper release screen on the diad. It will also say "shipper release" on the lower part of the shipping label in the bottom left on a standard Ups label.

Tell em too bad. No Apt # gets marked as such and not released by me, same with bad street numbers cause they put N instead of S or the wrong zipcode populated so it’s a town over.
I don’t understand why some management is so bent on making surepost service 1st day. They have a 2-7 day range on them. Just like ground has a range.
I look at every package for apartment stops to make sure there is an apartment number before I go carrying them to the building (same with shopping center suites/business names). Sheet them in the package car.

I see a lot of medicine shipped in styrofoam that is shipper release. The kind of stuff that is quickly perishable.

I would guess that the savings in shipping cost is more then off set by the few losses.

Absolutely. It is used in feeders daily. We don’t call out using fatigued. It is when they try to jam another leg down our throats we just say we are fatigued. Can’t do it. It’s the magic word in feeders. They can’t say a thing.
And why are you worried about supplying them with a reason. You don’t need to give them a reason. A call out should go like this “This is John Smith, not coming in today, click”
Like giving them a reason is going to make your life easier? No matter what you’re going to be in the office Monday morning and they are going to be digging sheet up that happened three months ago, that has nothing to do with you calling out. So who cares. Yes, boss. I’ll try harder boss. OK boss. Anything else? You think by telling them you are fatigued the harassment will not happen? Lol

I’m sure their biggest concern is the replacement cost for a medicine that went bad after a second or third attempt.

Shipper release is also a great way to eff up a bulk stop that you think you can cir
Only to find out, as you are walking away, you can not

I got caught with that one a few times. Now if a SR pops up while scanning, I immediately stop and relnum that package. As long as you CIR on another package that is not SR, it will allow you to complete the entire stop.

Have any of you brought back stops because of fatigue?

I know of one driver that did. This was many years ago.

I did once, but I also fell asleep at the wheel after driving over 350 miles and taking out an edge reflector. Nothing was said.

It has to be kinda eerie sometime out there at night with snow. Just pitchblack. Especially on a road like this.

These are the fun ones...they get the blood pumping. Bad thing is I am dumb enough to enjoy driving down these roads even as I get older. (And dumber).
