Wow you're like a semi automatic with your responses today.Not your call. why would it matter to you anyway
It matters when I'm the one who has to do the follow-up.
Who's call is it?

Yep, we were trained to ignore it. Shippers problem.So, if the pkg says 1 of 5 etc.. you just ignore that? Interpreting the shippers intent is fraught with peril. I'd at least make a phone call and let mgt. decide. Always do that in dicey(expensive) scenarios.
Wrong. We couldn't refuse cash if the tag said "cash" or certified check. Either way, a bunch of cash COD's could have you walking around with plenty of cash.Nope
Get a money order or cashiers check I’ll either see you tomorrow or you can catch me down the street
Not sure what integral is.....but If the cod said 1of several, they didn't get didly until the check. Shrug.
NoIn all honesty has anyone ever had to pay for a customers package. Like a payroll deduction.
Yes exactly. Oh? Yep. How did I ever make it without you? integral...darn that auto correct. In fact, how did UPS ever make it without you? Just to be accurate, I didn't deliver in 1983 either. Just to be accurate. My point exactly.My point, exactly. Just because you have 40 years in this place doesn't mean you have a clue what you're talking about. Drivers in package deliver now, in 2020, not 1983.
Yes.

Right.Wut?
Right.
If the DIAD does not prompt me to collect for a pkg it will be left. The same as when I was taught on paper. Have had a few times over the years where the COD ended up going back(refused/NM3) but customer kept the rest of the shipment.So, if the pkg says 1 of 5 etc.. you just ignore that?

Ok. I've also had shipments that specifically stated otherwise. Shrug.If the DIAD does not prompt me to collect for a pkg it will be left. The same as when I was taught on paper.

Wut? See? fun huh? Carry on. Say, need any tips for career longevity? My rate $38 an hour....Your incoherent babbling sure did show me.

Shippers responsibility to code anything that shouldn't be left, not the drivers. We don't know what's inside.In my center we had a driver DR a high value signature required which vanished so they made him go on a payment plan to repay it. When I was a brand new cover driver I left a few box of books at the front door of a house (not out of the weather) and it rained that night/the guy didn't use that door so didn't know it was there. They tried to get me to pay for the claim they paid out. I started using DR bags when rain is likely after that and looking around for porches, etc.
If you are still employed and complete DIAD training you would know that is the actual method.So, if the pkg says 1 of 5 etc.. you just ignore that?

Shipper can put messages on. packages that say anything they want. Just like signature required, no signature required or COD. UPS charges for each of those services. If you do not pay for the service then you do not get the service. The service encoded into the barcode determines completely.Ok. I've also had shipments that specifically stated otherwise. Shrug.
