If we can't use other-other then why is the option even given to us?

that kind of reasoning is way above my pay grade
like: can't record a business closed between 12 and 1......... well, that evolved into between 1159 and 1301 now * where does it end?
if we deliver a pkg. to a business between 12 and 1 and get a signature, but also record a call tag as a legit. NR1 on the same screen at the same time we will get a message later in the day to void the call tag and rerecord
It used to be used HERE in Massachusetts to record packages containing alcohol (illegal to deliver in Mass). We were told at that time that was the only reason to use other other.

it has gotten to the point of absurdity that I won't do anything with a business stop between 1159 and 1301 except show as a delivery * not moved / not no such number / not out of business /not anything other than an outright delivery

Why worry about something that is way above your pay grade?

other-other gives you an option to put in your reason. For some reason that can not be used anymore. Why? I'm sure it's due to national security.
truth has no place at UPS
We had a driver here that sent in a message stating he was going to have 6 missed packages on a split route that was closed after 5. He explained it wasn't marked as a fire station on the boxes and was in a resi area. The center manager wanted him to call him so he did. He told him to just DR them at the rear door and leave a note. The driver said "instruct me to do that over the diad and I will." center manager says, "You know I can't do that, just stay there til they came back then"

Is this station in a small town? Not only don't stations close, someone is usually there even after I just watched the engine, ladder, and EMT exit the bldg. I digress.....
For those who don't know, "Other, other" INCLUDES damages, inspection, missed, deceased, out of business, etc. To get to that menu you must hit "other", option 1 after hitting "non-delivery" key, and then "other" again once that menu comes up (showing, among other tgings "moved", "refused", "INTERCEPT" (the apparent new "inspection", since the old is an "other, other" (from another mother...sorry, couldn't resist)). You use any of these options and it shows up on a report, apparently. You guys were talking about that special treat: "Other: other: other (to be funny, in the remarks box that comes up one should type, "Uh, other")
Had a funny discussion once concerning "deceased", as i had been instructed to sheet as moved. "Dude, where theyve moved to, the clerk needs not waste anytime trying to find them! why can't I just call it like it is?!?" Sheeted as instructed ultimately, though. Similar discussions concerning "out of business" vs "moved".
Parts of me wonder if the whole "other, other" thing was to avoid having drivers "mistakenly"using things that really shouldn't ne used without mgmt direction, such as "damage" (again, you use this and the claims process starts automatically, even if the only problem is the box needs re-taping); "emergency conditions"; "cannot find (or worded similarly, which i found out makes the package sheet up as missed); "strike", and some others.

Using "other" "other" results in a missed package and a sit-down with the center manager.
