Blatant Entrapment

No my neighbor has that one. Mines just an allstar addition. I do love it though. It's the nicest automobile I've ever owned.

You deserve it. Congrats. Good things come to good people.

I've been in the office with members in these kind of situations. This happens because people soak misloads.

Blows my mind why someone would risk there job, knowing they would get fired for it, yet still do it......

Thanks.

I don't see much the point in the high country or the Denali.

A loaded ltz is essentially the same.

A lady on my route has a High Country. I asked her how she liked it and she said


"it's ok..."

I said "ok? that's a $50k truck"

she says " Oh I PAID way more than that"

 

[wayfair]

Alternate arrangements? That's pretty funny. That doesn't exist here. The alternate arrangement here is, deliver every package on the car, whether its 1/2 mile off route or 25 miles off route

You guys with shuttles and moving MisLoads must work in a place similar to the BOG

You must not have ORION

We had a guy soaking them on multiple occasions and he got off with a five day suspension. He got off easy.

We have Orion and run off misloads (within reason).

Yeah more like 60k-65k

Sure do. My center manager doesn't care. They don't want to be their in the 1st place. Word is they were sent their as a form of punishment.

Funny thing is, these idiots will send you a message the next day asking why you were 30 miles over plan the previous day. Because you instructed me to deliver my off route. Ok understood thanks. Lol

Dude I came out of the welfare system as a kid. It's a Cadillac to me.

Getting close in price also. A full sized Denali sub is within 10k of an escalade.


Although the front clip is really the only major difference.

Tough crowd today

one bar I go to has a sticker above the bar that says "For a small town this place sure has a lot of A-z-z holes

That's not the big picture. If we are consistently doing this customers get angry and go elsewhere. Eventually they just want to get what they're paying for. That's what convinces them to go to the competitors, who already have a cost, and quite often, a speed advantage.

I think the smashed boxes alo help customers loom at USPS and FedEx

Real good friend of mine is a veteran driver. The definition of already checked out. Just doesn't care. If this driver finds a misload he/she mixes it in with another delivery and sheets refused. LOL. Just doesn't care. I could tell you a couple other crazy things but I'll pass.

It's amazing how much people spend on cars. I got 7200 in rebates 14,500 for my 11 Colorado the ups discount and then more after that. It is a 15 so they really want to get rid of it. My mother in law ordered me The whether tech floor mats front and back for my milestone birthday coming up I was fyiED by my wife. It might be up in the $500ed. I think she's crazy but it is what it is.
Life's good

That is incredibly stupid. Especially so close to retirement.

I don't disagree. The other things I could say are even worse. I will say it doesn't involve stealing. Just more of could not care less.

 

[ManInBrown]

A lot of vets are completely checked out, with all the dumb stuff nowadays. This is the only UPS I know so I'm completely fine with playing their dumb games. Paid by the hour. WAD

I've had lots of jobs over the years and have worked with every type of person you can imagine. But some of the people that drive in my center act like pure scum whenever they can get away with it and regardless of who it affects. And during my time on this board (I've been here pretty much since the beginning) I've noticed that they exist in other centers across the country too. What is it about this job that turns people into such selfish pricks? It's easy (if done correctly) and it pays very well with benefits to boot. I just don't get it.

We've had guys throw them in drop boxes.
