[QUOTE="dave_socal, post: 108542, member: 5582"] Why is the package car driver the only ups employee that has to be super efficient? Since entering the feeder ranks and having to observe UPS operations at all hours I have seen such inefficient jobs that it makes me mad to see this time study B.S., which I used to just blow off, back when they would add or take away time over the years on the routes I did I would just shrug and say whatever . Other than the poor smucks that load the trailers (worse ups job in my opinion) Package Car drivers are the ones who have to make everyone money. From porters,mechanics, to clerks to shifters/mule drivers and yes feeder drivers too plus all upper mgmt I see these good folks take their sweet time doing their jobs if they're doing it at all, but my fellows package cars drivers are being killed out there. Just had a young aspiring college bound driver quit all UPS, after weeks of training and a couple accidents. Why? too much B.S. I heard sups on phone begging him to come back he said "friend" off hung up on there pathetic faces. This guy was being sent out with 175 stops a day plus a pick-up string , I dont think I as a 21 year old I would have made it in todays UPS enviroment, stressing out young smart people and sending them to our competition and keeping dead wood loafing around hub all day that what I see. Place time studies on feeder on everyone see what happens. If I offended your job please set me straight. [/QUOTE]
