[QUOTE="satellitedriver, post: 334337, member: 1664"] Much more than $.25. On straight time I make $.46 a minute. If I am driving, I have to pull over. (the clock,then ticks) I am delivering to a customer, I have to stop and respond. (the clock, then tocks) The fact is UPS is being charged $.69 a minute, since they are pushing me into overtime pay. (not to mention, as I text my response I realize I did not toggle to ABC mode and have to start all over again) My best guess is that it costs UPS $1.38 a text on my end. (2 minutes on an average) Add the cost of the person in the center and the UPS costs have to be over $2.00 per text. I am judged in my actions in the terms of seconds, by UPS. Why waste millions of dollars asking drivers when they will get back to the center? That fact should be known, using the PAS/EDD system, before a driver has even left the building. P.S. Is the time having to respond to text messages even addressed when a time study is done on a route? Maybe, just maybe, there are some bugs that need to be worked out in the PAS/EDD system. [/QUOTE]
