ORION

[The Blackadder]

If UPS was really smart they would sell Orion to FedEx. Then we could both waste billions of dollars and tell wall street we are saving money.

We should crush it like we do our outdated package cars.

And we could get back the business we lost, because we can no longer give the customer a time we will be back the next day, and our customers can no longer set their clock by us as far as delivery time.

I try to explain to the Fedex drivers, "Do you realize that I'm making a $100/hr right now?"

You were in the office 2 days in a row? Sounds as though you may be a problem child.

Make that three in a row, Dave!

Do you have your own chair?

Do you have your own chair?

I'm going to start bringing furnishings and decorations in with me I've been in there so much the past two weeks. You know, to make it more comfortable for me since it's becoming MY office

They send those here: mine is 30 years old with 800K.

A lot of our old package cars we would get all seemed to have Illinois tags on them when they'd arrive at our center....

One more payment...and that baby is OURS!

What do you guys know about buying/trading/selling carbon emissions?

What do you guys know about buying/trading/selling carbon emissions?

Let's say each company is allowed 20 tons. UPS can get by using 16 tons while GM needs 24. UPS could "sell" 4 tons to GM and both companies would stay within the established guidelines.

Global warming is a bunch of crap. Give me a break.

 

[calcio56]

So could a reduction in miles free up emissions to sell?

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

So could a reduction in miles free up emissions to sell?

Yes but the reduction would be negligible. The main focus of this program are airplanes.

Our area is now giving warning letters for not delivering the first stop in ORION. Even if a driver had told someone before hand that they wouldn't be able to. I suggest that anyone that is also seeing this take pics of their loads and send messages through the diad whenever there is a problem with delivering their first ORION stop.

Just deliver the 1st stop.

 

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Just deliver the 1st stop.

Even if you have to drive by 7 others to do it?

Even if you have to drive by 7 others to do it?

If that's what they are instructing you to do, then yes.

Yeah.......I don't think so.
