Saturday ground

[BrownTruckWannabe]

I hate it, they are moving me to a Tuesday- Saturday schedule and I'm being a big baby about it.

Because of the long hours, or day? The people who work that schedule here(not doing ground yet here) like that schedule.

Sadurday ground? The looks everyones faces, the complaining from drivers before they're even on the clock! late air and wrap-up (drivers not out until after 9:15+) and "in the red"...good luck! At least it's a nice payday, and no rush-hour traffic/schools/buses/ etc.

The whole game has changed at our hub, since the inception of Saturday ground.

 

[upschuck]

Always got 8hr requests.

It's amazing how the "oldest biggest and best" logistics company couldn't manage to add a day of work to their schedule without ing up the other days.

They like the days. Air drivers, and such type jobs.

Beats having no job.

I was at the pool all day Saturday. Why are you guys crying about working every Saturday? Get over it. So you miss a whole lot? Big deal.

13hrs worked on a "9.7" dispatch on our 1st Saturday ground operation. 168 stops/175 miles. I hope they get the dispatch straightened out.

Wait, so the computer takes 168 stops/175 miles and says that it is a 9.7 day? That would only be possible if the package car could fly. Is there a reason the software doesn't work like it does Monday through Friday?

Well in all fairness, the other days were already messed up.

Don't you know that 2 hours worked between 1-9 hours is only worth 30 minutes at anything over 9.4?

You know what's great about having off Saturdays ...College Football !

 

[DumbTruckDriver]

The drone on the roof of the package car must not have been working that day.

I know, right? I'm guessing it had something to do with IE not being able to "work their magic" as they had no viable historical delivery data to work with.
