Are customers going to stalk us now?

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

I have a buddy who is a steward and he unloaded his truck 4X in the morning to get stops off the seven and 8000 Shelf. The orion guy asked him what the heck he was doing and he said I'm running your Trace. That took care of that.

You know, safety is always first.

Your buddy is an idiot.

Except a win from da...Browns

I saw them beat the Bengals a couple of yrs ago (in Cleveland) and for Browns fans that was a great game.
Even blind dogs find a bone now and then.

And he has a great marriage. Doesn't (have to) sleep with the cat.

Can't wait for the first time a driver gets mugged and the attack is linked to this overreaching program. My Choice was good enough. Now this?

I hope the driver gets 10 million bucks. Or at least his next of kin does.
This ain't Mayberry and we don't all work in the marble palace in GA.
Alarming.

Look on the bright side. According to that pdf proper delivery methods are out the window. Just park wherever you feel, he'll man just scan that brown box while you're in the cab, don't turn on your 4 ways , stroll at a leisurely pace, carry that package like a jamoke; just make sure you smile.

But in all seriousness dude should be trying to move a sofa from wayfair or a rug from PB.

Or the trampoline, the 5,000 watt generator and Amazon pantry box that is open on both sides

I'm in an extended center. Imagine people pulling over a driver on a country route. Might scare the out of them.

People setting up these programs probably live in gated communities.

Some of the metro, inner city routes customer base did time in a gated community. Lucasville comes to mind.

it's bad enough that management knows my every move.. Now the customer will ask why I drove by their house at 12:30 then came back at 5:30 to deliver package. thanks Orion

That's not a Must Ask!
In fact, it's not even a question!

 

[Dr.Brownz]

Are you saying you would work a longer day if you could leave earlier?

Why is it that management seems to forget things like breaking for air/pickups/bulk and not being able to deliver certain business's during lunch and how that causes you to have to drive around more and waste more time?? (does that statement even make sense too you?! probably not)

I try to explain these things to my sups but they seem like they are brain damaged or something

 

[3 done 3 to go]

Just curious----do you have them sign of do you just hand them to them?

Hand it to them. Sheet it when it is next on the list

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Hand it to them. Sheet it when it is next on the list

So if it is the only stop out in the middle of nowhere you are still going to drive out there just to sheet the package?

 

[3 done 3 to go]

No. Just sheet as next stop on Orion. When it comes up on the list. Mc

Btw. I've got a whole route of middle of nowhere stops

Communication messes with their "solution".
Two of our drivers run it 85%+ and are 20-30 miles UNDER their solution.
They seemed upset at how they did that.
SMH.

Since Orion. On avg, I've lost 20 miles a day. Still 100 stops a day. But, you know -- they are tighter
