Is CACH the Chicagoland hub? I heard its the largest also. You mentioned its outbound doors, but I was curious as to how many PD's there are?
I know its just packages, but when you think about the operations at our large hubs and air gateways its somewhat amazing. Even the coordinating BETWEEN these hubs is impressive by itself.
Just think about 1 hub and the coordination that must happen every day. Four sorts, 200 package cars and drivers, mechanics, P.E. employees, pre-load, unload, loaders, sorters, bulk sort, bulk trains, first responders, haz-mat autidors, small sort, metro sort, metro slides, high value clerks, revenue clerks, package center clerks, part-time sups and trainers, full-time sups and coordinators, center mangers, sort managers, division manger, shifter drivers, feeder drivers, feeder managers, air drivers, customer counter clerks, human resource.
All this under one roof. When I think of it this way, it truly blows my mind.
I know I must have left something out?
I assume all of this the responsibility belongs to the district manager. To me, that would be too much on my plate. Whatever he earns, I think he deserves. UPS being UPS probably underpays its DM when compared to a similiar postion in most other US companies.
Any thoughts?
