Network down today, had to sheet stops old school

[What'dyabringmetoday???]

Why would you use your own phone? If they want pictures they should give you one of theirs.

These tough guys claim that they don't use their phones but you can probably bet that they do. You can be anybody that you want to be on the internet. Lol.

 

[What'dyabringmetoday???]

Hah. No. But I was actually not driving today and working clerk for the sort so I believe it sort of fit into my job.

Better be careful around here.

 

[pkgdriver]

You hurt my brain with that one.

Yeah.... 6 digit shipper number, and then weight, release number, or some ID ?

Weight then date then release number I think. Some of the big shippers had the strip with the shipper number and ID on it I believe.

Not only do they not know, most can’t figure out the math to do it right.

I especially loved rainy days working on paper. With soggy delivery records they couldn't prove you did anything wrong.

That's why it was such a great job back in the day. You ran your own show every day. You ate lunch,
when you wanted, took a break when you wanted, had sex with Mrs. Jones when you wanted.

Bottom line was everything got delivered and picked up. That was it.

As a driver who started at UPS the very same month in which I was born put it, "Boy were those the days, where you could mark that Next Day Air as delivered at 10:28, and not have to show up til 2:30."

brother, i definitely use my phone.

Thing is, it's my phone. I use it when I want to, not when other people want me to. When it makes my job easier then it's the best... that, uh... that only seems to be when I'm making the calls. When I'm receiving them, though? Lol, no sir. Airplane mode and catch me if you can.

My supervisor was mad at me because I was laughing.

He said do you think this is funny.

I answered no, this is hilarious

Did you tear of your red & blue labels ?

[Covemastah]

I am a feeder driver , but I know all about delivering on paper and pulling out a paper map to set up a car and deliver ,, while driving a stick ,, and wearing long pants , short hair , shaved and no tatts or a man bun ,,, tell 'em how hard we had it @rod ,
