Snow Protocols

[Seymour Packages]

Those of us here in the Northeast are expecting a major snow event later this week. In my experience, snow days are the easiest workdays of all. CL1 and EC all day at 6 stops an hour, max. And the best part is all the rolled pkgs and extra OT later in the week. Let it snow!

You can EC but @MECH-lift mailboxes everything....not fighting twice as much volume the following day. I’ve hit 60 MPH ( mailboxes per hour) on my best day.

Why only 6 stops an hour? Do you let a little snow slow you down? pusillanimous

Have to spoil them and send them to overgoods, never to be seen again.

Bulk of it is happening overnight here. So the problem is waking up in the morning with potentially 18 inches on the ground. They may just tell everyone to stay home for the day. Figuring not a lot work will make it to the building plus people not able to even get to work etc.

We closed one time in NJ about 4-5 years ago. I was still in package. Stewie send a text at about 8pm. Closed tomorrow. Do not report. We were supposed to get 20 inches. We didn’t get one flake. The biggest weather screw up by the meteorologists I’ve ever seen.

18" is a dusting in these parts. There again, not every place is equipped to deal with it either.

HELLLLPP!!!

Yep, they send everyone out, and as soon as more cars get stuck than can get towed out in a day, they call everyone back. That took less than an hour once. Then they make some stay to unload all the cars and reload the trailers.

Well judging from what I know about you and the gay headlamp you wear. I'm guessing it's a bubble bath?

We have 3.5 inches here. I just measured.

The snow will be heavy all night in NY metro so no one will be able to get to the hubs including feeders.

Day off tomorrow is my guess.

RIP PENNSYLVANIA , EVERYONE WILL BE IN SATURDAY

this your first snow storm?

Meanwhile in Japan...

Dispatch already bumped back our preload start time due to the predicted drop in volume tomorrow since there will be a trickle-down from the feeders not being able to get in. Our center is below the snow line and its going to be sunny here tomorrow. Hopefully another easy 8 hour day.
