Lucky you ... I can remember 2 trailers loaded with missed back in the 80s ... took a week of peak-like days to catch up. And there were another 5 trailers waiting to be unloaded.
The good ole days!

maligned, misaligned, deceptive,unscrupulous, deceitful, inept or whatever you refer to it as, bottom line it's WRONG....this is not the UNITED PARCEL SERVICE that I started to work for in 1977it doesn't really matter what board you use to sheet them up, they're still ending up on "The Reports"
the idea behind using a single DIAD and the center's address is to get a good idea of how bad of a day the center really had, and also to more quickly make plans for the next day
Edit:
not EVERY instruction you receive has a maligned purpose

What an inane thread. Packages get missed...EVERY DAY. These were recorded in the system. End of story. I don't know how you have time to even post on this board between looking for Oswald's accomplices and little grey bodies outside of Roswell.

Brown Bomber is retired, so he is like a feeder driver in that he has a lot of hours to sit around and think things up.

I can remember personally bringing over 150 missed stops back at 11:30 one night during an exceptionally bad peak day back in the late 80's. And that wasnt counting the additional 100 or so that I had left in a pile in a garage out on the route. It was several days after Christmas before I was finally able to get those delivered. That was what UPS was like before the advent of the DIAD and package-level-detail. All that mattered was getting the packages out of the building so that the DM could gaze down onto a "clean" belt from high upstairs in his office.

sorry if I offended you, yes I am retired....hopefully some day in the future you too, can reap the same reward.......I just made an observation based on over 30 yrs. w/ UPS.....bottom line customer service has suffered......management has their hands tied by Corporate......in turn Corporate has to answer to the owners of said Company (stockholders)...and , YES, I am a stockholder, therefore an owner......so I feel free to question anything and everything regarding this Company

Were these packages missed because of the big snowstorm we had in 1986?
Hoax, i dont remember EVER having missed pieces in the 1980's,and there was no such thing as DOT hours then. i Went FT in 1986,and 1991 was the first peak that didnt have drivers working until 11pm-midnite in my center. one simply did not bring packages back,and if one had very many 'damages', NSN or NSP's one was quickly on managements radar

You didn't offend me in any way, and likewise, I didn't commet on you, merely this thread. I, too am well over 30 years with UPS. And simply, in my experience, all of this speculation seems ridiculous, nothing more or less.
I hope your retirement is LONG and rewarding.
