[QUOTE="1989, post: 454573, member: 10280"] Seattle delivers about 30,000-40,000 pkgs a day on average (non-peak)...Being peak season lets say 60,000. (I'm guessing on this figure) Day 1, you have 60,000 packages. You arn't able to deliver about 30,000 because the businesses are closed and you bring back another 10,000 because the roads suck. What do you do with the 40,000 you brought back along with your pick ups? Day 2, you have another 60,000 packages plus the 40,000 from yesterday. So now you have 100,000 to deliver and maybe you bring back 60,000. Because you are fighting through all the closed businesses that are in the way, plus your pick ups it's slowing you down. Keep in mind UPS is not a warehouse, Where do you put your send agains (pkgs. brought back)? Day 3, you now have 120,000 to deliver (you have now ran out of cars and personnel. usually UPS rents about 30 or 40 uhauls) You see a pattern here? A friend of mine had 968 stops to deliver on 12/26. Of course that would be impossible...He was only doing about 200 because of all the walking. It's a trickle down problem. [/QUOTE]
