PSA: Please stop ruining routes

[Hot Carl]

Skipping lunch, calling/texting pickups instead of actually going there and attempting, running and gunning all day, blowing up stop counts, getting way too friendly with people on the route so that half the that’s on the truck for the enormous, sprawling office building on your route comes in with no suite numbers on it because everyone there knows you know where it goes, and everything else in between. This is creating impossible situations both for cover drivers and for the poor bastard who takes over the route after you bid off to go destroy another one.

 

[Just A UPS Guy]

Skipping lunch, calling/texting pickups instead of actually going there and attempting, running and gunning all day, blowing up stop counts,

"Stop being a runner."

getting way too friendly with people on the route so that half the that’s on the truck for the enormous, sprawling office building on your route comes in with no suite numbers on it because everyone there knows you know where it goes,

"Stop offering good customer service so I can smash out like a runner."





Neat.

 

[Gabba]

it's not an impossible situation. in fact even if no one ever did that drivers would still face the dilemma of having to stick up for themselves or eat poo for some other reason or even for the exact same thing. sure let's discourage lunch skippers and runners but don't blame them for having to fight with your manager. just get acclimated to the fight, once you do it just rolls off you back. you may even start to enjoy it. get a fat stack of grievance forms and start filling them out with the non variable information.

How can get all friendly with people on the route if you’re running and gunning all day?

Typically they wait til the resis to do that. That's where they sit on their seat belts, jump in and out of truck, park on the wrong side of the road like amazon drivers, drive with 8 packages on the dash, and leave pee bottles in the back for the next driver to find.

I do that the first two times and point out that they forgot their suite number. After that it's to the clerk, unless it's overweight. I dump those first time every time.

Peepee bottles? Tasted like apple juice, oh well

No use trying to stop the runner-gunner. They are scared fools.

making a PSA thread on a site where probably zero runners even visit; pretty cringe

 

[burrheadd]

hold up
@Wally a known runner

 

[freehoodies]

“Union steward, management told me to pull my pants off, bend over, and make it wink. What should I do?”

“Work as directed then file a grievance later. You get paid extra!”

It feels like all of our “rights” like breaks and 9.5 protection end up just being the discount version of our true 60-70 hour a week labor.

Or that we are whores they can do whatever they want with, provided they pay.

Who doesn't enjoy pointing out the foolish ways of the runner-gunners?
