I got a ticket

[Richard Harrow]

You would think, but...


We had a driver who got a DUI earlier this year. Got his conditional license, went to all the classes, jumped through all the hoops only to have the judge take his license away for a year. OCS and center manager tried to get approval for him to ride along with a new driver for Peak. DM said no so he is double shifting on the inside to get his 8 hours. We could have used him as he knows 15 routes---instead he is loading package cars.

This is just stupidity. It's a hallmark of UPS management.

Then what happens

After the third violation, I think ups starts paying your tickets... kinda like matching 401k

Good to know

You should be fine. Relax and enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Doubt you or anyone else cares about a follow up but I am going to post one.

Talked to my center supervisor on Monday and he was surprised that it is a moving violation. I deliver in one state and work in another. Our city is right on a state line. Anyways he basically told me not to worry about it and said he would talk to the HR lady. Told me not to even go in there. Fine by me, just hope it doesn't end up affecting full time driving next year.

You are right in that I truly couldn't care less whether you get to keep your job or not.

Talk to your union steward about this. That way there is some back up to what the,center manager is telling if you are wanting to go full time driving . It is not unheard of that he will say one thing and not follow up with it

You are such a bag dude. Was that last part really necessary.

and wear your seatbelt

I always do, which sucks about getting he ticket. Haven't had a ticket in 4 years or so. Just happened to be ty timing.

Wait a minute. Why not just go to court and plead not guilty. Tell the judge that you always wear your seat belt. Which is it?

I wasn't wearing it. Pulled out of the grocery store without it on and he saw me right away. Was actually about to put it on. Just bad timing.

Maybe with a box of fresh Doughnuts and the aroma wafting out the window of your car ?
