Heres a tip for dealing with irregs

[upsbeernut]

Safety first, Orion can kiss my asczz when it goes in lol. Aint changing anything for them.

Orion is shut off for now cause in theory its the biggest waste of money and technology that has no common sense reality.

 

[jumpman23]

Orion is a riot. You have to deliver the big ones first then deliver in sections closest to where you are.

That whole Orion thing is all a cover up for the real reasoning of why they really put it in. What it is, I don't know, but its probably not what their telling people it is. I know they cant be that mentally retarded to put in something that makes no sense and is so obvious that it wont and cant work. You know these idiots always have a lie or something shady on the backburner. Present you with a physical image to believe something to cover up the mental image of what something really is.

To have a reason for more stops on the car is all I come up with, cause overtime is more costly than gasoline, but adjusting routes and taking out splits might be in the equation. So if they make us run it their planned way without regard to traffic, school closings, doubling back into the same area, and to climb over packages for an extra 5 minutes of sort time.

If your floor space is clogged with irregs that wont fit on a shelf and you are tired of stepping around/over/on them...stand them upright against a shelf and tie them off with bungee cords. This will help you organize your car and clear a walkway thru the middle.

Im clueless dude as to why they put it in, youll have to ask a different dumbasczz than me for the answer lmfao.

You must be in an area with no snow. Our auto shop has boxes of bungee cords available for use with tire chains.

NE PA here….same thing..our mechanic got sick of giving me them, so he put a whole box of them in my package car one night. I delivered to a very rural area with 90% dirt roads in the snow belt. I use chains for about 70% of the winter. I also usually go through about 5 sets of chains in a winter…..seems like they don't make chains like they use to...

Ill give him credit on that one. Pretty resourceful and ingenious and way to think outside the box for real. I like it

lol.

Your a smart like me . Lol

I delivered an irreg. over the oven microwave today to a resi on my area today. It was on a hilly, curvy, somewhat busy area, so I didn't feel like it was safe backing into the driveway, or using my 2 wheeler. I can't be the only 1 that's constantly muttering, "just go to the friend---ing store" while climbing back into the PC after delivering this shizz.

DITTO DUDE lol.

It's an out. I can milk the clock now if I want and do ORION as close to trace as possible, or do it the way I've done it for over 25 years, and be done way earlier with similar mileage. It's my choice!

Last Peak I was delivering a split on the former AFB. I had a case of diapers from Amazon for a young mother who was anxiously waiting for the delivery as "she was down to her last two". I asked myself if she knew that Walmart sells diapers and what she would have done if she had ran out.

 

[Stopher]

Great idea, but we won't have these fancy bungee cords in my old building.

Oh well, let that 60" TV box keep falling over and rolling around. Next time, go pick that SOB up at Best Buy yourself!

Amazon prime - free shipping, and diapers are cheaper there than anywhere else. When a driver buddy had his son, he bought diapers off of Amazon exclusively. He said how great of a deal it ended up being. He also lived on his route and no doubt was signing for the delivery himself while dropping it in his garage, so it's a win win!

I had a huge ass cabinet once that I was getting off with my airs. It was about 150 pounds. It was raining. Miserable. This family was just standing in their garage watching me struggle lugging that monster up to their house.

I gotta tell you that if I were the homeowner I probably would have done the same.

It's only a judgement of ones character.

I paid for unassisted delivery to my home.

Then you won't mind if your delivery driver insists on his right to have another bargaining unit employee assist him with an over 70 and if none are available not deliver your package.

I wouldn't touch it until management sent me help to do so.

Just because you pay for unassisted delivery doesn't mean it's right, as a human, to watch another human struggle and not offer assistance.
