What’s the rudest message you’ve ever received on the DIAD?

[G.V. Rush]

Was told to go downtown to cover some pick ups at rush hour mind you. I responded that I’m not familiar with downtown. Responded with “well looks like your gonna learn”. Dick move

Had a message today asking me to do a sweep at D*'s Sporting Goods. Replied back with a "Sure I'll do it if you pay me ground pay today." as I was running an air route. Not even 2 minutes before I got a disregard message, lmao.

WHAT? Why the @#$%^&* wouldn't you do the PU and then demand top pay?!?!

DO WHAT THEY SAY THEN MAKE THEM PAY! I don't understand where your head was in even questioning this! Exactly how many dollars did you just piss away by sending that response?

Not a rude message but it was pretty damn funny.

We’ve been getting about 8 messages a day asking if we’ve “seen a near miss” i replied with keep wasting my time with messages and the only miss you’ll see is on the 40 I’ll bring back.

Leave a bad taste in your mouth?

The more important question would be...

Why does the driver feel the need to do this?

The message did not specify whether it was our driver or not.

Agreed---it was a dick move on your part to respond like you did.

No...it’s called lighting a fire under his ass.

Saturday’s are residential only. 30 stops should take no more than an hour or so.[/QUOTE. Not walking and staying on walkways

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

What are you babbling about?

 

[Signature Only]

They want you to be angry because most people work faster when they are angry. Smile and don't let it get to you.

Yes. Old time supervisors call it "priming the pump"

They'd call an overdispatched driver into the office and give them grief to get them fired up so they'd run all day, get everything delivered and get their pickups done too.

Why was it a dick move to inform his sup that he is unfamiliar with the pick ups? I don't know how large his downtown is but in my city it would be nearly impossible to complete the pick ups in time without knowing exactly where to go.

 

[G.V. Rush]

Agreed---it was a dick move on your part to respond like you did.

How was stating that I’m unfamiliar with the area a dick move? I was stating a fact. You sir, do not seem to understand basic conversation. Way to not bring any substance to the topic.

 

[G.V. Rush]

Agreed---it was a dick move on your part to respond like you did.

Oh and by the way. Why are you on BC at 630 in the morning. For sure get a life

Nonsense! This situation does not exist in the BOG! How dare you, suh!

@RonBurgandy??????????

 

[Dr.Brownz]

dude, they love 4 u 2 b angry, you will run faster

A long time ago an old driver told me when they make you mad, stop and take a safety break

 

[Dr.Brownz]

It wasn't advice, it was fact as other real drivers on your side chimed in

You should bid on a rural route after peak & let the newbies come in to do your BOG area for your final months.

More windshield time, less stops, less wear and tear on your body... save it so u can bounce that grandkid on thy knee like they on a galloping horse

Congrats on lasting that long!

He is afraid of the snow. Ie to much of a p to use ECD
