[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 470832, member: 4653"] Hey Browndevil, That's where I thought the volume came from (gift cards, returns, etc.) but this year it was significantly heavier than past years. Could it be from X-mas and New Year's being on a Thursday so most businesses were closed for 3 days 2 weeks in a row? Once the new year hit the six-days of non-activity was flooded into the system? Everyone one was severely over-dispacthed here even though our center ran 6 more routes than normal. I say this with my toungue in cheek (somewhat). UPS wants the sales leads and volume but when they get the volume my center team goes crazy. They don't know what to do and they start ripping their hair out. Isn't this what they want, heavy volume? When I hear my supervisor complain I liken it to the fable of "the boy who cried wolf". They push for sales lead, yet whine when the volume is heavy? I don't think you can have it both ways. Why whine when the volume is heavy? Its not like they are doing any of the work, lol? Unless they are? [/QUOTE]
