we dont even have a machine.

I thought you were a delivery machine. :)

We have two vending machines and numerous water fountains throughout the facility. We do not have an ice machine. During the summer they buy 15 cases of water per week for the drivers. We are encouraged to bring them home so that they will be nice and cold during the day.

You guys have rain? We gotta chop the ice, bring it in and wait for it to melt!
Speaking of ice , in the summer our ice machines dont work and the cold water in our nasty locker rooms comes out hot only. Our break room is the smoking area outside with camera watching the part time thugs play poker before their shift starts.

I have lost count of the number of items I have found left behind in the men's room that I have turned in to the OMS hoping the person who lost them would claim them. Sunglasses, watches, hats, money, etc.

When I was an unloader I wouldn't even pick a coin up off the trailer floor. And if I find pens or other crap in my package car that weren't there the day before, that's where they stay.

Lol y'all have strict centers. I find random money on bye ground I pick it up and keep it moving. I've returned wallets though. Guess ppl in our hub are careless. Then again our shop Stewart is a beast. Sups have been fired for goin to war again him.

Best kept secret at UPS; loaders drink from the leaks in feeder canvas roofs. That's the real reason holes in feeders aren't repaired; it keeps the loaders alive while they scan. Makes them more efficient, no more trips outside to the fountain.

One day a PC driver saw me filling up a bottle from the bathroom tap. He yelled, "You drink UPS water?! You're gonna grow titties drinking that stuff."
