Personal Vehicle Deliveries(peak)

UPS going to buy more diads and give them diad training?
Would not put it past them to contact recently retired drivers who might want to make some extra beer money a few days a week.

They will be paid 5 bucks a day to use their smartphones. They are developing a new app for it.

I guess some people comment before they read.

I'm surprised they are willing to take the hit to the company image. People freak out and don't belive I'm a driver when I'm in a uhaul.

Right or wrong people expect more from ups. Will these guys have uniforms? Be held to appearance standards?


That's a big double standard.

Someone sign for the packages in the garage??? I'm not leaving them.

oh yes you will.....

 

[Rack em]

oh yes you will.....

What happens when packages go missing? The peak hire said he never got them and they weren't in the garage/locker/whatever. Who is held responsible for the missing packages?

I thought they already did that. Could have sworn I talked to a guy last peak who said he retired ten years ago and comes on peak to stay busy. It's non union so it's not like someone couldn't.

 

[wayfair]

It's not some random's garage. It would be a supervisor's or someone at UPS

They've been doing that for at least 15 years here...

 

[Faceplanted]

I'll ask again... what's the unions opinion of this?

No cares in the world I'm sure. If tcd guys don't get to drive, and guys are using personal vehicles can the tcd guys file?

Come on union guys... where are you?

It's pretty pathetic but the contract essentially goes out the window every peak.


I would imagine TCD have a right to the work first. I mean every year we have helpers working when they are still trying to send drivers home.

If the packages are being stored in a residential garage, then an anonymous call to the TV stations are in order. UPS put a stop to that pretty quickly last year.

Goes against most city ordinances and codes. Ups doesn't care.

Our ba called the news and they did an investisrion. It was hilarious. At the end of the day nothing changed.

 

[Ghost in the Darkness]

What I wanna know is what the union will say about this!?

I can tell you what they will say.
After we turn around, you already know where to insert it.

They should offer personal use cars for existing employees based on seniority and bump their pay until peak is over, thereby giving them "driving experience", and help perpetuate a company culture of utilizing existing employees and encourage them to stay.

You have to be new here.....lol..

 

[Big Package]

I'm new here yeah but I'm glad someone figured out I wasn't being serious

Current UPS employees are not eligible.
