New DSP - Qualifying *

[Brownslave688]

As a wife of a driver trying to make scratch I can tell you what I've learned so far...it seems to be this unobtainable goal. My hubby has yet to reach it. You'll go out and think you've had an awesome day just to find out the next that you were an hour or more over. Adding stops is very common as they don't start you with a full route to begin with. And quite honestly if you are busting ass, more residential stops might help your numbers. They did my hubby's. Helps to balance out the time lost on pick ups. If you really want this, get out there and bust ass, organize your truck on short lunches, get signatures at apartment buildings, know the diad well, and most of all be safe. There are some really great guys on here that will help you with ideas but also there are a lot of guys on here that will bust your balls for being a newbie, ignore them. Lol

As a wife of a upser leave us alone and go make some sandwiches.

Yup I'll even cut the crust off just the way you like it.

 

[Brownslave688]

But do you know he right way to cut it in half.

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

But do you know he right way to cut it in half.

There are only three choices---vertical, horizontal or diagonal.

I'm sure even an air driver can figure it out.

Two of those choices are wrong. And is a sure sign of a mentally unstable person.

Yes, I did.

And, yes, you are.

No can you draw me a map on how to cut "he" in half? I'm just a dumb air driver. Without directions I'd go for the base, not in half.

I don't give 2 hoots whether you can make a sammich or not as long as you Take Care OF BUSINESS

It does depend on how everything else goes. We had 1 driver try and fail 2 or 3 times. Speed was a very real issue, but so was getting NDA back to the building in time for the shuttle and that was the reason given for DQing.

To the OP, watch your evening routine. You should have a set place where you ALWAYS put your NDA. You should also be looking at the number of NDA pieces that you picked up when you hit your return to building time. Count them. If the numbers do not match up, either figure out why or ask a local sort sup if your truck can be unloaded, because you are missing an NDA (I have done that.)

For all others, ignoring Upstate is easy. Click on his profile and then click on ignore. It will improve your BC experience immensely.

Totally agree... put his ass on ignore and it has been great... now I'm thinking about putting @IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U on ignore too...

If you are 1.25 Hours Paid over right now, 5 days in, and believing it is unattainable to be "scratch" with 20 + days to improve you truly have no faith in yourself.

I got a hint for you. You probably will make some improvements on your skillsets as you are not a well oiled machine 5 days in...Just relax and focus on improving everyday.

Screw their numbers I will KILL a route be done at 330 same stops same route next day finish at 730 and my over allowed is the same...don't crash don't hurt yourself and don't have late air and you will pass

"Screw their numbers" isn't the greatest advice to someone in their qualifying period. "Their Numbers" is one of the largest elements he is being evaluated on...like it or not he needs to meet the standard the same as every other person who has come before him.

Stay positive, Try to learn everyday, Work with management don't fight against them (They are the deciding factor in you being a or .)
