[QUOTE="wornoutupser, post: 3878295, member: 2196"] Today I heard about a Central Florida building that beats it all! Every car was dispatched and of course, a breakdown happened. The driver managed to get back to the building and there were no more cars. The center manager wanted to get a rental to put him back on the road quickly. The rental would have been around $ 100.00 and it was denied. Instead, UPS called a wrecker to go to Orlando, pick up another vehicle and take it there. The last time a tow went that direction it was around $500.00 The driver then had to reload into the new car and did not leave until app 15:30. The delivery area was about 45 minutes away and most of the work had to go to other drivers to make service. I cringe to think of the overtime involved. I was told that the affected driver got back around 22:30 tonight. One can well calculate the extra cost that UPS chose to incur due to this. Literally, they stepped over well over $500 plus to save $100. Whose head should roll? [/QUOTE]
