[QUOTE="scratch, post: 314090, member: 1674"] I work out of the smallest of the three Hubs in the Atlanta area. Forest Park Hub is located a few miles south of the airport and was originally built to handle a now closed JC Penny Catalog Center. We now have two Centers with about 120 routes that deliver somewhere around 37K packages a day, and have a small Feeder Dept with about 36 drivers. UPS originally came to Georgia in 1965 and the first Atlanta Hub is located off Fulton Ind Blvd on the west side. I was hired there originally as a Loader on the Midnight Sort. My first On Car Supervisors were all "Day One" drivers, they would talk about driving all over North Georgia with less than a dozen stops in a P400 back then. I don't know how many routes are there, but I heard the Feeder Dept has about 100 drivers. The Pleasantdale Hub is the largest, it was built in the early 1980s and is located north of I-285 and I-85 in an area we call "Spaghetti Junction". I think "P'Dale" has about 200-250 Feeder Drivers, most of the Atlanta volume flows through it. [/QUOTE]
