Lol we barely had the drivers to cover the routes this week. Next will be a disaster.

On a 4 day workweek if you didn't have 8 requests you were pretty much over 9.5 at my center.

I remember the media (real and social) slamming PrimeDay last year. Saw lots of "#primedayfail" out there. It was apparently bargain basement type sales and the not so good deals did well because people didn't know any better. Sounds like Black Friday to me.

It was complete junk for the most part. Stuff they couldn't move so they made it a "deal".


Many just can't resist though and will order stuff anyway.

Now don't you think that language would have to be negotiated and put into the next contract? Where'd you get your info?

You heard wrong.

 

[By The Book]

I told myself I'm never going to work another Saturday at UPS. Too much stress!

Go read your local supplement.

Go read your local supplement.

It'll be a dark day when we open up the contract(national master) and the language says "the company can push Saturday's".

Seriously read your local supplement the language is there, just hasn't been implemented yet.

10:30.

That's going to add miles over the plan I would think.

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

That's going to add miles over the plan I would think.

Also means you don't have to call off until 8:40

Not really.
