Teamsters ratting our teamsters

Off the clock and, yes, I MADE A MISTAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did Dave just admit to making a mistake!!!! I don't believe my eyes!

The "dude" was working a concern that was not on his area and that he knew nothing about.

The "dude" needed to be told to mind his own business.

I went there and the situation was resolved with a handshake and an apology in less than 5 minutes.

Nope.

The misdelivery was resolved within 5 minutes of me pulling in to their driveway.

Off the clock and, yes, I MADE A MISTAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dave, are you familiar with the term "liability"???

What happens if your "situation" isn't resolved successfully, or the customer doesn't accept your "apology" when you decide to take something like this upon yourself...off the clock???

I worry not about you, rather someone else reading your crap, thinking it's the way to do things.

Please consider yourself lucky to have made it to the finish line....and shut up and go away.

I’ve never misdelivered a package but I’ve had driver follow ups before.

.....sorry Pal, we have all misdelivered a package at some point.

Are you in feeders?

So true.
But Upurstate said the kid that tried to help him out lived in that area so being so close to the MISTAKE that Upurstate made, he tried to help the loser escape a DFU.
Evidently, he has trained the young drivers to work off the clock too.
The wizard of Bog got embarrassed.
And became angry about it.

I won't lie, I've been in this situation, the difference being that I let my Center Manager make the call....

....and he opted to send another driver who was still working, when I offered to go back out to "investigate the concern".

While I admire the sentiment to cleanup your own mess, I also acknowledge that it's not my call and "liability" is everything, all the time.

It's really just that simple.

Are you in feeders?

City route.

City route.

I like your chances of being the next Pope then.

If I were to misdeliver, it would be multiple pieces. I’m more apt to forget a box than misdeliver. Don’t get me wrong, I take my time to ensure no misdeliveries.

 

[Frankie's Friend]

City route.

TDP?

Are you "backing up"??? (I would)

Seriously @wide load, with your advertised experience, we're talking about hundreds of thousands of packages....

....and it's your contention that you haven't misdelivered one (to your knowledge)???

Dave goes out at night and retrieves them for him.

Not for a misdelivery. I’ve had follow ups. But easily rectified since all my concierges write down tracking numbers. Where I fail is forgetting to take all pieces. I don’t DR (well up until a few weeks ago CIR).

So...you have "misdelivered" then???

 

[BrownFlush]

We have a good steward and he does not keep track of our attendance.

He also doesn't file for working off the clock.
