You're a few days behind. I caught that in post #43

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
Sorry I’ve been enjoying all of my newfound family time.

I said I appreciated their company.
I never said they appreciated mine.

I miss the old days, no telematics, delivering ressies with the bulkhead door open, jumping in the truck and the lap belt after rolling, to set up the deliveries my way, not Orion’s. The earlier start times, no observations, and we were rewarded for driving safe.
UPS seems to have made more money back then than they could spend. They have pissed away more and more money on technology that just doesn’t work and have taken all the fun out of the job. No quality of life any more 915 start1930 finish micro dispatching, I could go on and on but you all get the jist.

All the stupidly dangerous things YOU(and those like you) did are the reasons why we have telematics. No observations? This is total BS. Fool.

We have telematics because it allowed them to save money. Smh

Funny thing is I bet the injury rate was less back then and the job still got done.

Ahh seems everyone was careful not to tag me on this thread... found it anyway! I find out next week and I’ll do it for a while if I am able. I see it for what it is now.

That's true, you can stab a knife through the gas pedal to pin it to the floor and the car will keep going while you do something else.
Saw it in an action movie once.

Mmm, Mombasa!
Not only are they wanting 6 days for part timers, but the last month since this covid crap they are wanting to get 8 hour days out of them, and if they even think about leaving after 5 they lose they mind like you aren't allowed!

Yes. But your answer is incomplete. They save money because less/no injuries with the bulkhead door closed. Also it is a security deterrent.
Seatbelts are obvious(should be)(but on here...). So, smh all you want.

Well, 40 years for me but that's another story. You(we) are quite the exception.
