Albany NY facility overloaded

[HEFFERNAN]

Heard a bunch of supervisors from out-of-state were sent to Albany this week to run routes. Building is outdated and can't keep up with the holiday crush. The building looks small on Google Earth so they're lucky we've had good weather so far.

Sounds like many of our buildings.

This had happened to us in 2012 my helper was a sup from Baltimore...

The same sups I am sure that write people up for missing the handrail one time but now in "let's do what it takes to get done" mode.

Building got smaller and outdated?

We were overwhelmed with volume wise ass.

It is actually in Latham. It is a good sized facility w/4 centers.

They will be running Sunday sorts for the remainder of Peak.

We have not heard anything about this at our center.

OK, that makes sense.
The Latham building looks more like the building described to me then the Albany one.
The building I was looking at is only 5 miles WSW of the Latham facility.

There is only one UPS facility in that area.

Our preload had been working 10 hour shifts and they still can't get wrapped.

Maybe it's UPS freight then

Secaucus, NJ too.

How safe is sups to drive Saturday when they worked 60 plus hours already?

A 10hr preload....that makes me tired just thinking about it.

My preloader is getting more overtime than me! Lol

 

[retiredTxfeeder]

I used to see my preloader during peak and I'd ask him "Hey can I borrow a hundred?" lol.

Hopefully you ran his ass off... Then make them buy you lunch

Yep.. In the typical dbag ups style

 

[govols019]

I honestly can't wrap my head around a 10hr preload...The longest preload we ever had at our center was 8hrs and that only happened one time in 1997. God lord, was that a miserable experience.

That would be illegal

Actually saw my center manager jump out of the package car onto ice and bust his ass my first peak.
