[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 651146, member: 4886"] OK, so let's look at it from another angle. We have a snowstorm and the mgmt team tells you to come back to building at 6:30 - 6:45 which is relatively early for peak. Usually people complain they are stuck working late espescially after snowstorms due to street conditions. So UPS keeps people out, people bitch, UPS tells people to come back people bitch. By bringing you back, we got the pickups back to the ctr, so that work can be put into the network and start moving to the destination. Thursday again, center asks you to come back and not finish all delivery. Again, all pickups can be put in system, we don't have to worry about any DOT violations. Now on Friday, after mgmt totally screwed up by keeping you from working late. You are back to building at 7 PM after helping another driver and "sneaking" into building (Your words, not mine). The pickup situation isn't as severe on Friday due to the w/e and hubs closing later. Sounded like a good plan, if that ctr had drivers following orders and not sneaking back in, they probably could have had more drivers in under 12 hours and none over 13 hours. You didn't mention any other issues like accidents or injuries, so I'm assuming no accidents or injuries occurred those days. So after a snowstorm and not all roads being clear (your words, not mine) they had no drivers get in accidents or injured. Again, sounded like getting a bad situation due to mother nature and getting decent results. [/QUOTE]
