The member who wrote post #56 was spot on!
UPS has come out and said that ORION will be the companies savior. This groundbreaking technology will reduce driver miles and thus save our precious resources and correct me if I'm wrong, in a recent corporate press release it said it might even help with peak!
Did any of you guys sit through your center manager's state of the center address last month? I did. He outlined a number of things, specifically last peaks PR nightmare. UPS wants to win back the publics trust, and how will corporate go about it? Take a guess. Yup, me and you!
Atlanta, thinks that by continuing to go after drivers not meeting Orion's 85% standard as well as driver appearance and a myriad of other performance and service levels, the public will forgive us.
If we rewind to last December, we saw and read how both Amazon and UPS were blaming each other for fumbling promises. UPS was never going to make full refunds but its all a PR stunt to go after drivers harder and with more consistency, by default it was us who were to blame for a bad peak.

There is no argument. If they tell you to follow it then do just that. Just remember to send the message for business help early.
As far as driver appearance goes, how can we look good when the uniform budget won't allow us to get replacement uniforms for the worn out stuff we are wearing.
Yep, Its all, Ives fault!....working as directed....and all the weather and late freight....is my fault!.....sorry

All of our uniform orders are filled within a week.

I agree with the service cutoff but would change the word "won't" to "may not".
We need to increase capacity, if only on a temporary basis; however, increasing capacity does little when we are processing the increased volume through outdated facilities.
We will not see a repeat of 2013.

Can your OMS order me some? Been waiting for 8 months for some SS shirts, and 2months for some pants. DM even told the OMS to order me the shirts to no avail. Always told that they are ordered, waiting to come in.

Speak softly and carry a big stick.
The alternative, of course, is to not mail your package on xmas eve and expect it to be there on xmas. But that requires a few more brain cells than the average member of the public possesses.
I wouldn't state that, there are definitely things that can happen that no matter what UPS does that is out of their control.

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
File on this. I believe there is language in the contract that the company must give you uniforms.

I got uniforms, just not good ones.

I'm saying if you order them they must be provided in a timely manner.

There is nothing in the contract that addresses timeliness of uniform orders.
