My building is totally prepared for Amazon Prime Day

[john chesney]

You have to ask the local safety and wellness committee first. And if there are any disputes then it goes to the national safety and wellness committee for a final decision. So by the time this contract passes it will be damn near November when a lot of drivers don't need the fans. Then next summer will roll around and we will all ask for them and it won't happen. Grieve it, which will take MONTHS to settle as usual. So by winter 2019 we should finally get fans in package cars.

Instead they need to put fans in ALL package cars, both in the cab and cargo area! And why the isn't that language in article 18 instead of being tucked waaaaaaay in the back at the very end of the NMA?!

Heard prime day was a flop. Cutting routes the rest of the week

It wasn't even a Cool Story, Bro. I got notifications that stuff in my cart had prices reduced .01 $$ LOL.

I think everyone knows that Prime Day is a huge scam.

I just had one of those days where everything was going right the whole morning. Quite amazing actually. Every business was there and not busy. No cars in most of the parking lots as it was early. No bulk stops today (highest piece count in the first 70 was 6 pieces.) I could walk through my car front to back without tripping on anything. My largest piece today was a bicycle.

It was just one of those rare, good days. I'm bringing my loader breakfast tomorrow morning.

Supervisor must have been riding with you. Lol

I had 70 off at noon. You must have really been going as slow as possible.

Wdfd.....@gumby

All amazon is is an online Walmart...

All amazon is is an online Walmart...

I heard a commercial on the radio that stated this exact same fact...
Walmart was offering a $149 gift card for order through Walmart.com.
The exact amount that Amazon will soon be charging for its membership fee.

Oh... are they raising prime to 150 a year???? Didn’t hear this.... thought they just raised it to 119???

 

[Zowert]

We still have 1 poor dude loading six trucks at a time on prime week.

 

[eats packages]

Plenty of amazon today but that was dwarfed by the insane amount of AC units that came in. Maybe they were amazon ACs?

edit: Yup, amazon is running %30 off frigidaire ACs.

Imagine the nerve. My dispatch asked me to pull an extra leg last night and go to amazon to pull a load out. Really ticked off. Gotta love feeders.

Our Preload is starting a whole 15 minutes earlier on Thursday.
It seems the same team responsible for Christmas preparations is totally on top of this.

Lmao!

See ya in a year

 

[brostalss]

Prime Day is gonna just break me. I'll have to pull a set for three hours, swap trailers with the guy waiting for me and then drive back. How am I gonna do it?

 

[Wally]

15 minutes? @Gumby wastes more time that looking for delivery notes.

Supervisor must have been riding with you. Lol

Nope. They don't typically ride with me but once a year for the safety ride. I get my stuff done and beat Orion time unless of a breakdown or something out of my control.

 

[barnyard]

You're right. Monday's suck now.

Mondays used to be the best day of the week in my building. Under 9 hour dispatch for everyone. Now routes are cut and everyone goes out with a 10 hour dispatch.

I seriously used to love Mondays.

 

[scratch]

They gave us popsicles and painted my wheels for some reason so I would be ready for the day. I pulled out of the building at 10:02, it looked like half of our Preload didn’t come to work.
