[KearsargeCoop]

Anyone's center actively doing this yet? Our center manager claims April it's going nation wide. And half our stops are considered "rural". It'll be interesting.

Our center has 4 zip codes that they are only going to service Mon Wed Fri starting in about 2 weeks. No clue what will happen with the air on Tues and Thurs, what if it's medicine?

The Union always told us that the Company has the right to ruin their own business. Not much can be done about their brainless actions.

Like “Yellow”….

I live in a rural area .. All I see now is Young Amazon drivers going down one way streets, very seldom do I see a UPS truck. It wad like that 3 years ago…

Wrong.

Air drivers are back-up.


Section 1. Air Drivers

"(a) Air driver work shall consist of delivery and pickup of air packages which, because of time and customer commitments, cannot be reasonably performed by regular package drivers."

Up to the shipper to make adjustments in their shipping schedule, don't wait till the last second to send out their medication to people

And what if the adjustment they make is to ship with FedEx who can get it there on Tuesday?

Then UPS needs to realize that possibility before implementation. Is the juice worth the squeeze?

UPS doesn't want that unprofitable rural delivery packages

There isn't anything we as workers can do about it, we don't get to tell them how to run the company

With fedex ground eventually doing all of express deliveries how long will it take for the meth heads to figure out what people are getting what drugs and watch pills go missing. It happen at brown, it’s really going to happen over there.

Yep. The easy money is coming to an end for the part time employees.

I don't think shippers who are only worried about pinching pennies and shippers that use UPS premier services have a very big overlap on a venn diagram but what do I know I'm just a dumb truck driver
