[QUOTE="scooby0048, post: 1490673, member: 50693"] Maybe so but if this thread is legit, here you have a guy who is begging to work 60hrs and yet is not given the opportunity but you have others would kill to have a 40-50hr work week and they push 60hrs 85% of the year. I call it stealing from my family and personal time when an incompetent dispatch sup claims your planned day is 9.5 hrs and it ends up being 10.5, 11, 11.5, and so on. I read most your posts and appreciate your insight and am thankful that we have some members of management on here to (sometimes) tell "the other side of the story" but I will respectfully have to say that it's a crock of :censored: if you want to be petty and call it stealing. C'mon Dragon, so a guy spends too much time at a stop with the customer building rapport...unless you're a robot, you are going to talk to your customer especially if you have been on a route for any length of time. It's a fact of UPS life and human nature. Driving slower, taking the proper walk paths (longways) instead of cutting across is stealing because we are doing what we are told? Are you going to tell me that all your drivers do a proper DOT pre / post trip on their vehicles? If the guy were going home between stops and knocking one out with the old lady, going shopping, paying bills, napping, or anything else remotely like that stuff I would say yeah definitely stealing time but based on the OP's example, it sounds like he is trying to do all the work he possibly can for UPS while admittedly, most of us are trying to do the VERY LEAST! Bad advice, probably but my point was that if he really wanted to be worked like a slave and max out hrs, there is most certainly ways to do it. [/QUOTE]
