No Flr 1,2,3,4

[OVERBOARD]

Same here, They moved a bulk stop that I had loaded in fl1 to the shelves so now when I del the 1da I cant get to the ground and have to go back later. I just say something once and thats it, if you dont want to fix it. just pay me the overtime.

Yours too? I would rather talk to a brick wall than our dispatcher, at least then I KNOW nothing will change. Our dispatcher will throw her arms up as if to say "what do you want me to do?"

My answer to that question would be "Your job!"

Talking to our dispatcher is an exercise in futility. He is dumber than a doorknob. His only answer to any question you ask him is: "It looks fine to me" and then walks away. I will let them screw up my truck all they want. At this point I don't give a crap.

Seems to be a common problem. Pretty much all the major troubles in my center right now can be traced directly to the incompetent stooge who is screwing up our dispatch on a daily basis. It's easily the worst that it's ever been right now and that's saying quite a bit.

There is tons of things you cant get done anymore, you cant get consignees put in your DIAD, you get old ones take out, you cant get new streets put in your diad and bad paper streets taken out ,You cant get it loaded the way you want and the dispatch is so screw-up you always have two drivers delivering one street in the middle of the woods. Just think how far we made it as a company, you gotta love technology.

"Uh, your job".

I am shocked someone let this one pass. Oh, that's right. I didn't say it. I forgot. Oopsy!

In light of this obviously being a common problem in various locations, I submit that the problem maybe not be the dumbest managers being assigned to dispatching in the preload.
Perhaps the indictment may be more fittingly attached to the system and the lack of resources allocated to its maintainence?

The day before I retire I'm gonna hide my Diad in the back of a mail truck and watch dispatch wonder why I keep stopping every 30 seconds.

Who runs the system? Management. They are, at least at my center, too busy doing hourly work.

My dispatcher must have a brother from another mother!!!

It's works the way its suppose to here. I have a business that had only 4 packages. They are normally loaded FL1 but instead they were PALed to 1000 section.

If it works that way then it really makes sense. One of my trucks frequently gets ONE package PAL'd to FLR3, or two packages as RDR. Pretty annoying for a loader who actually wants to produce a quality load that the driver doesn't have to friend around in to find stuff.

 

[brownmonster]

We've never used Flr1 or 2. Loader has enough sense to put the overflow on the floor.

 

[menotyou]

Old preload sup(now since seen heading west on 12F) wrote you up if you didn't put it where it was PAL'ed.

 

[The Blackadder]

Ok Thursday was a topper for this new Idea, the system took my stuf off the floor since monday to wednesday the stop only had 8 pieces total, but then comes thursday, and 55 packages, all loaded in the 3000 section.

This is brillant I now have to work around what would be my 1st stop since I cant get it out the back door, for 2 hours. Finally I get to my huge bulk stop late I might add, I then have to carry 50 plus packages though my PC to the rear and on too the loading dock. This turns a 15 minute of so stop into a 40 minute stop, not to mention the time that was added to my day by having to work around said bulk stop for 2 hours.

This folks is how UPS saves money, they pay me an extra hour of work, plus the over 10 time bonus, because some fool up the line who most likely has never even stepped into a PC thinks this is smart.

That is my rant for the day, have a nice weekend.

They CAN put that bulk stop back on the floor. We have a few floor stops that were put on the shelf because of a low avg of pieces. Mgt is manually over riding some of these stops, putting back on the floor for exactly the reason you described.

Today was my first day of dealing with this new initiative. It was a bit frustrating at first but thankfully there wasn't too much bulk. I would raise hell if they threw a 55 piece bulk stop on to a shelf.
