A test for UPS: One day, 34 million packages

[upsman68]

I had172 stops 220 pkgs. I used a helper for 5 hours. I punched out with 9.25 hours today. My center has hired extra drivers this year. We have some drivers complaining about their OT. I'm enjoying getting off earlier and enjoying the holiday season with my family.

The drivers did pretty well in my center.

[BrownSyndrome]

I did 327 stops today out of a budget rental. Exhausted.

 

[clarnzz]

212 stops (all time high), 135 miles. 3.99 helper hours. My on road is pretty helpful, they pulled my 5,6,7, and 8's off, ran em out to me, and had over 100 stops off by 1PM, with a clean 700. 10.5 hours.

 

[TooTechie]

I average 250 pieces a day. Today I had around 500...in an 800. I usually do about 105 stops on my city route...today I did 205.

 

[728ups]

I worked 12.95 hours and brought back 10 stops. We had 2 seasonal drivers quit today and bring the trucks back,and another seasonal driver was arrested when someone called the police about a suspicious person in a Uhaul. turns out he had an outstanding warrant and he got a one way trip to the Graybar Hilton

Our center manager will be yelling about misloads here in a few hours at everyone.

*(telling myself) "Only two more days"

 

[brostalss]

8:00am start time here. Left at 8:05am. Had 30 business stops done by 10:30am. Including my bulk stops.

126 for the day, I was done at 1:15pm. Nice nap at lunch. 2:30pm pick ups, brought in the air relay.

Home by 7:15pm

You didn't look at the dispatch sober...you only had a 12 hour planned day....lol

According to ORION, my last 40 stops were all scheduled to be delivered at 11:59PM, which would have been just shy of 16 hours into my shift. I think it is because the software cant calculate beyond midnight so it just defaults everything beyond a certain point to 11:59. ORION's planned mileage for my route also exceeded the un-refueled range of my package car, so extra time/ miles would have to be planned for me to drive to a gas station.

Its a good thing I ignore ORION.

My loader gave me three misloads yesterday but at least they were one my way rather than the half hour joy rides she usually gives me.

296 stops 400 pieces 110 miles. 12.5 hours

You driver released more stops yesterday than I release in literally 6 months lol.

 

[Back first]

Always take a lunch even during peak. The more we do the more they expect from us.

 

[MaceFremonti]

1 stop, 1058 pieces, 420 miles, 3 hour nap, punched out at 18:25.

Another failure peak in Soberland ... and it's never the local management's fault.

"Local management" is an oxymoron.

The people I report to are plan facilitators, not managers, and the plans they facilitate are not their own.
