[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 873352, member: 17969"] IBThammer, Those factors are already "factored" into the equation. The "help" after 6pm are already employed, already passed seniority and already at FULL TIME rate. The only "extras" are the extra FUEL we are ALL BURNING on a daily basis. In addition, since we are getting to 12 hours, we EACH have to take a second lunch before the 10th hour and that pushes our return to building time to 945pm!! This completely screws the unload, sort and feeder walls. They start at 6PM and sit for up to 3 hours with nothing to do, and they have to be kept longer because of "our" delays. The cost "run-up" is solely on UPS MANAGEMENT in IE. IN my hub, you cant FIND A SUP after 4pm as the business is being run into the ground. All full time sups FLEE the scene of the crime before it gets dark and the "kids" try to make adjustments to save the days dispatch. Day after day, the OMS sups fail because they dont have the "resources" to send and packages get failed. The larger issue is service. When did deliveries after 7pm to residential areas become normal other than peak?? When did the daily dispatch become a "peak" load all year? Why doesnt UPS understand that making deliveries after 7pm and running all the way to 9pm hurts our reputation, our service and our people? Today, im burning more fuel each week than Ive ever burned before. The next contributor to the service failures is the PDS, this "pencil pusher" takes his instructions from Atlanta at 530am, crunches some numbers, and then collapses the days dispatch by cutting too many cars and then throws in hands in the air and goes home thinking "he" did his job for the day while the business burns to the ground. There are soo many management contributions to failure before a single truck leaves the building its not even funny. The last thing we need is another supe or expert. The company needs to go back to old school and return to service, service, service. UPS has dummified its management with reports and numbers to a point where they are afraid to say anything up the chain of command. Thats "WEAK" leadership. Peace. [/QUOTE]
