Drivers that come in early

I deliver to Walmart. Sounds like the dock packages are RDR while the inside deliveries are being PAL'd elsewhere. It shouldn't be that hard for you to catch those and load them all together.
Why would he load them all together? They're Pal'd separate for a reason. I WISH some routes could get them Pal'd to different locations. NDA for Vision everyday, and their ground and savers are mixed in RD with the stuff for the dock. I don't mind, but it kind of makes us look bad.... uh yeah, I'm back again, that's logistics, see you again in a few hours for your pickup... smh.

Configure it the way YOU want it then. There's reasons for things to be combined as well as reasons for keeping things separate. I have a bulk stop in RDR for CA state health dept and a RDL stop for Kaiser. When I first got on the truck they had the NDA for both those stops being put up front in FLR 1/Section 1. Both of those are dock stops so it's a complete waste of time and energy to have to carry the NDA from the front. 10-20 pieces of air each. I just had the dispatch chick reassign that air as RDR/RDL also, problem solved.

I'm swing. It'd be nice if drivers could get with dispatch and have it set up the right way like you did. That's what I'm saying though, if some of Walmart is spa'd 6000, some 2000, and some RDR, it's probably for a reason.

Ah, I see. Well I don't know, ask the normal driver why put all that stuff together when it's delivered separately? Funny thing again is I also have a stop like that. RDR is CA state health Dept but I also have the dispatch lady assign another bulk stop address to RDR. Reason is my truck is jam packed in the morning and that other bulk stop is right next to my first stop of the day, the RDR stop. All the other spots (Flr3, Flr4, 8999,7999,5999,6999) are taken up so I just doubled RDR up so that second bulk stop is easy to access.

And Lawd knows in this Socialist country, no one can make decisions for themselves.
But apparently you are OK with a slave economy (working for free). And don't give me that BS about it being her choice...UPS exerts their power over employees to get it done faster. The threat is not a whip but a threat of harassment and termination.

Sounds like my Wal-Mart , I tried to change that but was told they cannot since it is corporate doing

70% of the time it is close , but the other 30 I find diapers and other things mixed in with the vision or pharmacy

I have mine loaded together as I am almost always able to deliver the dock before going around front. On those rare days that I can't I deliver the air and then come back to deliver their ground.

And, yes, I also come back in the afternoon for their pickup, unless it was cancelled.
