I went out with 130 yesterday. Almost dragged it out to an 8. Today I had 160. They keep telling us peak is coming. I don't see it.

Hoping for a heavy Friday, but doubt it. Sure they will push most of the packages to Saturday. Good thing my truck is at a quarter tank and I have 4 diad trainings to do. Truck could use a good wash as well.

8.5 all week. Today 7.5. A lot of my work is going to PVDs. I don't give a !

Time for management to pour themselves into their old browns! All hands on deck!

I don’t think the 2 guys on vacation this week are going to save us. By the sounds of it about 1/4 of the center will not finish today. 22.4’s are working over 8.5 hours for the first time since being hired and threatening to quit. We didn’t get anywhere near the PVDs they were hoping to hire and seems they can’t find helpers either.

It’s ok one of the sups assured us coming into peak it wouldn’t be near as bad for us as it’s going to be for most of the big hubs. Well if it’s worse for you guys. Good luck.

I was home by 4pm.

It didn’t take a genius to see getting enough help was gonna be a problem this year.

Aunt Carol will send her rainbow army to save peak. It's wildly important. Watch and see.

i actually had to put a hoodie on while i worked at my laptop today, made myself some tea to feel better

sure must be tough out there making the "big bucks"

Better, not bitter.

I was home by 4pm.

Off after 10 pm. Home after 11 PM. With someone coming to take 1.5 hours off me. Other guys lost 3-4 hours just to get done.

i had 211 today (99% resi) plus 15 pickups, after giving somewhere between 50-75 to a pvd, who complained about quitting because i didn't arrive at the meet point until 12. said she was there since 10. i told her i would never, ever, never be there at 10 and if someone told her i would, they were "pulling her leg" to put it nicely. she said it was an ORS.
clocked out at 8.

Thanks for your great peak planning. Over 100 years of experience and IE still can't figure it out.

Apparently almost 50% of our drivers were out after 9:30. Thats uhhh not optimal.

Was a rare year. I was like damn I’ll take it next year I guess. But it was full before it got to me and I have almost 20 years in.

Finance is above IE, they dont wanna pay people for the work they do

best laid plans of mice and men don't mean jack if no one shows up to execute them

 

[BrownStains]

I punched out at 10. Not the worse day I’ve ever had but it was a Brutal day. No help no pvds no nothing. But then you have other drivers punching out at 5pm. I don’t know how they’re factoring how many stops for some of these routes with no help, is ridiculous .
