I'm just trying to have a discussion with you on the level to which you use to communicate with others.Jackburton,
Wow, you are something else.
I'll give you that much.
Peace.
Sincerely,

Okay, you just admitted to falsifying and lying about services rendered that were not rendered. When does this show you the door?Being that I took my humor in fun I will answer his/her question.
I am part of the problem at UPS. I do not always make the best decisions based on Integrity. For the most part I do try to live my life at home and at work with a foundation of integrity. However, from time to time I make a conscious decisions that go against my gut and my foundation.
Example Its 10:29 and I am at the mall delivering my second to last air. I will scan 2nd package and lock it in the board so that it will not be 1-2 minutes late.
I have no excuse.
Shame on the three people who liked this comment, because they cheat customers out of their service by sheeting packages prior to their delivery so they come up "on-time".Who says I haven't !
I've worked in the same center for 18 years.
Made hardly no money, had no seniority, up at 330 am every morning, went to school or my part time job afterwards.
I did it because I saw the big picture !!
Fast forward to last year. Had the worst center manager ever. Loved the toxic environment he created and I was even suspended for 2 weeks !
We all deal with BS
It's how you handle it that defines you !!!!!!

Even though I was trained to scan package while walking towards my next stop?? Should I not follow the methods that I was trained to do? Seems as though either way I would be in violation of some method or another. It is in a mall. 1st package gets signed and delivered. Last NDA is scanned as I am walking towards customer. Would be pretty hard to fire me for this. Also, had I had a late NDA, I would be called into the office and written up for late air and maybe even not following the methods of scanning package on my way to final air. I was trained to scan area looking for holes and trip hazards and scan while walking up to delivery location.
There is nothing wrong with the scenario that you described.
There is something wrong when you scan a NDA at 1029 but are nowhere near the stop. Yes, the air will show as being delivered on time, but is the customer really getting what they paid for?
Again, this is in a MALL. I am walking towards the next stop. I am following the methods. I am not getting in truck and driving to another stop. I am walking towards my next delivery point. I am following the methods.
I do NOT scan a package and then drive to final NDA delivery.

340 METHODS. SECTION 6, PARAGRAPH 2, PART G:
"record the package information by scanning the package on the way to the delivery point when it is safe to do so"
...which is why I said "there is nothing wrong with the scenario that you described"...
i understand your reasoning, but will the pkg. be at the delivery point between 1030 and 1031?
If I scan at 10:30 it would be 1 minute late. If I scan at 10:31 it will be 2 minutes late. So yes it would be at the delivery point by 10:31.me said:10:29 and I am at the mall delivering my second to last air. I will scan 2nd package and lock it in the board so that it will not be 1-2 minutes late
the package is not late if delivered while the digital clock still shows 1030
But you added the following irrelevant statement and question that implies that I am not providing the service that customers pay for. "There is something wrong when you scan a NDA at 1029 but are nowhere near the stop. Yes, the air will show as being delivered on time, but is the customer really getting what they paid for?"
Yes as you can see from my post
If I scan at 10:30 it would be 1 minute late. If I scan at 10:31 it will be 2 minutes late. So yes it would be at the delivery point by 10:31.
However, does it matter when it will get there if I am following the methods? Are some of us now advocating to not follow the methods and have a NDA late? I do not know about you, but why would I want to expose myself to discipline for two infractions. 1) having a late air. 2) not following the written 340 methods. And yes, in my center drivers are constantly getting warning letters for late NDA. Some are fought, some not. I can pretty much guarantee that I would be disciplined for either the late NDA or not following the methods. Which ever the center manager believes would be easier to stick.
wrong * a 1030 scan is delivered on time * that's why i mentioned between 1030 and 1031 on a digital clock * i didn't know this for a long time * try it
Technically the minute is broken down in to two 30 second blocks---if you complete the stop within the first block of the 1030 minute it will be on time. It will show as late if you complete the stop within the second block.
KOC, you are well within the methods in your mall scenario.
Why are we arguing about time? It doesn't matter. Even if I am on the opposite side of the mall and have a 5 minute walk to the other end on another floor, it doesn't matter. I am contracted to follow the 340 methods and work as directed. What part of that doesn't make sense?
