On and off car routine

[Jackburton]

Good to know you have already learned the lesson of "no matter how well you do, it's never good enough".

 

[iowa boy]

I exit on the drivers side door in traffic, screw them.

I do too, but only when a car is coming. The facial expressions are priceless sometimes.

 

[ibleedbrown]

that on off routine seems intimidating but once you get the hang of it you will do it like a pro!!! good luck and don't let them stress you out too much! keep practicing everything back at the hotel, show improvement and you will be fine!

I never folded my mirror and walked in front of the truck to cross the street.

So, there.

And don't forget he hates the union but loves those benefits

This is untrue.

What I dislike are those employees who hide behind the contract.

I don't hide behind it and get union backup for my issues. I'm all about self pride/respect......heart and balls.
Too many drivers are p*ssies and don't stand up for themselves.
If you had many more drivers working as I do the company would be forced to put many more routes in.

I feel shortchanged. At the non-Integrad generic UPS driving school I went to all we did was take the 5 and 10 test several hundred times then were told we could leave by lunch.
When asked if we would be able to go on-road we were told "we don't have enough PCs and the safety bus is in another center."

I feel I was not exposed to the optimal UPS experience. I'll be filing my grievance.

They set you up to fail. How can you possibly drive and deliver packages without the Intergrad experience......

I remember 20 years ago when I went to FT driver school it was two weeks long. We drove the bus many times around the city, took turns reading out loud from the textbook but we didn't empathize diad training.

In my opinion, I would have all new drivers go deeply into the diad and drive, drive and drive package cars. All of them. Box trucks, 1000 and 1200's.
During the last couple of training days, I would have each new driver ride with a senior driver for these remaining days. Valuable first hand knowledge of what this job will entail on a daily basis.

I never went to ANY UPS training school and I was the best UPS driver----ever.

1 week training, 1 week driver helper, 1 week clown school.
