We start DisaSTAR October 24th. Right before peak. Excellent plan. Hoping 1 day will be enough.
The first day we rolled out e star we had veteran couriers who have been on their routes for years put in 13.5 hour days following the “e star sequence.”We start DisaSTAR October 24th. Right before peak. Excellent plan. Hoping 1 day will be enough.
DRA is still a joke. E-star is some ass kisser’s joke.Estar is the dream child of someone that has never touched a box or delivered it. and I thought DRA was a joke!
Don’t be talking bout dano like that!!DRA is still a joke. E-star is some ass kisser’s joke.
one reason I went to a shuttle/pup route.DRA is still a joke. E-star is some ass kisser’s joke.
I’m sure they’ll have all the issues worked out by then.So much for DisaSTAR on October 24th. We were told this morning that it has been pushed back until January.![]()
And develop some new ones too.I’m sure they’ll have all the issues worked out by then.
We were told suspended until February. The reality is once express sees profits go up, lates go down….how do you go back to the hated system?So much for DisaSTAR on October 24th. We were told this morning that it has been pushed back until January.![]()
We were told we will continue to run Estar but if you find yourself not going to make service then go ahead and break sequence. In other words, just ignore estar.We were told suspended until February. The reality is once express sees profits go up, lates go down….how do you go back to the hated system?
SRA the last 2 days I did 122 stops in my traditional route area 8 hrs 31 min on the clock. E star I did 89 stops in the systems efficient manor; I did 9 hrs 43 min. Also; SRA no lates, e star 4 lates.
I would reply that I haven't been trained to be a hybrid courier. Either eStar, or not.We were told we will continue to run Estar but if you find yourself not going to make service then go ahead and break sequence. In other words, just ignore estar.
And you have been gone how long?I would reply that I haven't been trained to be a hybrid courier. Either eStar, or not.
With my "new designed" route is a giant loop(130mile) which ends me at the station doing late 5-6pm pickups, the problem is if I follow estar there is no functional way to get to those pickups on time... of course if I break sequence, i've now left 20 stops about 30 minutes back. Normally my SRA route 8-9 hrs finishes 4-5pm, now I'm pushed to 6-7pm, running 13 hrs. The worse part is lack of sense, some of these pickups are less than a mile from the station, 30+ couriers are clearing and half of them drive by these during ready times. seems a select few routes have really gotten the shaft, due to optimization.We were told we will continue to run Estar but if you find yourself not going to make service then go ahead and break sequence.

nope... missed pups instead, that get's their attention. Dispatch refused to move them to clearing routes, and at the time we hadn't been given "permission" to break sequencecan you say dex1
Doesn't matter. Either they want a computer to do the job or a human. Can't have both at this point.And you have been gone how long?
and at the time we hadn't been given "permission" to break sequence
for the longest time memphis's flavor of the month was following the sequence.A recent Saturday I worked I asked the manager for the day what method I should go by, Estar or efficiency. His answer: “Fawk Estar. Run efficiently and safely and clock out early, I don’t care about Estar.”
