Our preload wrapped on time. Actually had quite a few guys back by 6 too. It helped having guys just do pickups all day though.

About 6 inches right now. May have to roll over trailers because of the weather tomorrow. Should be interesting.

That will suck. We really can't afford bad weather this year.

Peak?
Where you at again? We're having the warmest year on record over here, 10-day forecast is all high 40's low 50's, average is under 30 lol. Insanely mild here, no complaints.

20 NDA stops daily
Looking like 2013 peak for sure here in NorCal. Preload started an hour early yet they were no where near to being wrapped by the time pcm was over. Ended up leaving at 9:30 after the manager told everyone to just leave whatever else was on the belt. Drove off with hella stuff still on the slide. Sure enough, 210 stops and 36 pickups later at 9:30pm I finish with 45 stops still showing in EDD. I hate the day after a holiday. Always double the business stops, meaning I have to struggle just to finish them before pickups. Add on the fact that the dispatch girl is having trouble assigning stuff with Orion and ends up putting residential areas in section 1 and 2. I complain and she says that since they have the residential NDA in trace she has no choice but to put it like that. Basically our ish is all friend'ed up.

I drop them off after 1.7. Then when I send in a 9:30 eta they respond "keep the helper" which my response is "what helper".
Put routes on, keep helpers home.
Some centers must have gotten some volume advanced, we had the same volume Monday as we did black Friday, wasn't bad. They're saying today it will hit here.

My helper called out today. Shows the type of person we hire.
We were very lucky the weather worked out great last year.
UPS gets their ass kicked by the stock market media because we could have handled a couple big storms if need be.
It pays but doesn't pay to be a publicly traded company.
Our center looks pretty good. Lots of extra routes and helper coordinators are competent.
I feel bad for some of my brothers and sisters around the country who are being short changed already by scared Jos. A. Bank-wearing phonies who never drove.

These are the two reactions from management I see happening this year based on what I am hearing

I'm on FMLA so that's none of my business

Our preload didn't wrap until 9:45 yesterday. We had a bunch of trailers advanced on us. Oh, and combine that with the all day rain that made my dirt roads sloppy. Made for a FUN day. And today is supposed to be worse?
