[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1241574, member: 14668"] The really frustrating part is that I could have "rolled" 4 or 5 ground packages per day during the week, delivered them the following day when additional packages showed up for the same address or their neighbor, and wound up with at least 12 available DOT hours and a fighting chance of getting clean on Friday. The total number of missed packages for the entire week would have been far less, no customer would have had to wait more than 1 extra day for their package (instead of all weekend) and I would not now be in the position of having 39 additional stops piled in over the top of what is sure to be an already hopeless dispatch on Monday. Even if half of those missed stops "double up" and get an additional package on Monday, I'm screwed. Our center missed [I]thousands[/I] of stops on Friday, we are hopelessly understaffed, and I am a rural driver. What I cant do on Monday gets rolled into Christmas Eve, and what I cant do on Christmas Eve sits in our building until Thursday. Hell, I would be more than willing to come in on Sunday and clean it all up, but they wont let us. I really hate having to decide which customers get screwed over for Christmas. [/QUOTE]
