[QUOTE="wayfair, post: 3794841, member: 44531"] Please explain to me why any “solution” that requires a driver to deliver single packages off of random shelves in a bricked out car does not automatically get rejected? You keep wanting to “blame the dispatcher” for the fact that UPS implemented a system that requires a driver to violate [I]every fundamental method of package delivery that we have trained our drivers to use for the last 80 years.[/I] We already [I]had[/I] a working, efficient system that loaded the car in a logical order so that the driver could open the door, select a package, deliver it, and proceed directly to his next stop. You replaced it with a system that defies logic, that makes the methods worthless, that has the driver randomly jumping from shelf to shelf, that skips over bulk stops, that requires excessive backing and left turns, and makes the orderly management and efficient handling and selection of packages impossible by its very design...but its the [I]dispatchers[/I] fault? There is a [B]reason[/B] that the shelves are numbered one through eight. There is a [B]reason [/B]for RDL, RDL, MFL and MFR on the load chart. In order to deliver a package the driver has to be able to [B]find[/B] it, and in order to minimize the time wasted in sorting, rehandling and searching for packages there is a [I]system [/I]called the 340 methods that drivers have been trained to follow. You took something that worked, replaced it with something that doesnt, and you want to blame the [I]dispatcher[/I] for that? Loading the packages according to RDO, displaying the manifest in a completely [I]different[/I]order, and then intentionally [I]blocking[/I] the driver from being able to view it in sequential order is by far the most appallingly stupid action that the company has undertaken in the 31 years I have worked here and anyone who has ever actually done the job of a driver knows this to be true. have to repeat this...
