Our hub is slammed throughout the week due to Saturday. We still see packages that were supposed to be delivered Saturday on Wednesday. Granted we have only been doing it for 3 weeks. I have heard that other hubs that have been doing it months before us are doing worse than us.

This makes no sense.
Like I mentioned in the other thread, these guys are making it up as they go along. We were told about Saturday in July last year. They had so long to plan and test it but they didn't. Really don't understand how all these people have a job.

No, your post didn't make any sense.
There is no new volume being introduced in to the system so why would there be a backlog of packages?
We're also processing some of Mondays volume. To keep things short, a lot of Saturday packages are getting mixed in with Monday's work. Add on top the failed deliveries, packages getting lost in the system, etc.
Come Monday, we have additional volume on top of the packages processed Saturday. That means the drivers in the end are going out with remaining Saturday work and Monday's work. Some can't get it all done so it goes back into the system.

There are no specific Saturday packages. That work is Monday work delivered 2 days early.

Never bought my own handtruck
Our clerks come in. We have three, an AM, a Mid day, and a PM clerk M-friend. Pretty sure they rotate with each other for a full Saturday. So they work every third Saturday.
Not here, they work.
We have a cart for QC to be processed on Monday morning from Saturday.
Here they are.
We have our Monday volume that we process but do not deliver. We segregate them in a separate area. We have packages specifically for Saturday and are labeled that way. If they are not delivered on Saturday it is considered a service failure.

What about Saturday pickup pieces? Are they processed Saturday evening?

This is not sarcasm but if Sat and Monday are getting mixed up when they have there own areas than somebody isn't doing there job.
Which is what I was originally saying.

Seriously though it is fixable. Not sure how your guys hub is but our management team is a mess. Always have to be right even if it jeopardizes the operation. If they mess up they blame the next guy down. That's pretty much one of the main reason for our buildings screwups.
If they make you come in, you get your guarantee...where I am. Local practices may vary, of course, but that's something I got straight with my steward during peak when they forced Saturdays.

Move on dude.. I was being straight with you and your perception of what I said to you is all
ed up, I know you were venting. Conclusions are jumped to because a lot of our experiences are the same i.e.. that last post you did I could have said the same thing about my center.Whatever homie, somethings obviously bothering you. If it makes you happy then yes, you read my mind correctly by just reading text and should be with the Psychic Friends. [emoji122]Move on dude.. I was being straight with you and your perception of what I said to you is all

You want a toe? I can get you a toe.
My longest days are always outside of peak. Usually in the summer. The only thing they ask is if you'll be under 14. They don't freaking care.
