The ship is sinking.... how many missed?

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Today is much better. All of the ground is here and the air is on time.

 

[Coldworld]

Do you get a bonus or bigger raise for running and gunning?

It’s an ego thing for him....he can’t handle seeing a driver 1/2 his age beat him...the brown coolaid is strong with this one....

 

[Coldworld]

We are going to have the corporate folks here all week. We were told “we put a little dent in the backlog” yesterday. I welcome the help.

Get one of those office stiffs as your helper and run their ass off through the gauntlet...let em work for that 6 figure Christmas bonus....

A majority of these people are clerks, secretaries, specialists, etc. Not many are making big bucks. A few years ago I had a corporate IE guy ride with me doing a time study. He used to hand Mike Eskew the daily operations report for the whole company. He had a doctorate degree in math. He told me he made $45K, I was grossing almost twice that at the time.

Thank God for these millenials.

Once upon a time, college degrees were in high demand. Now people not afraid to put in actual physical labor are kings.

These days most people think "manual labor" is the president of Mexico.

I can't believe what a clown you are jumping thru hoops for these guys.

I'm clueless, but in a different way than you, in why you do what you do for UPS.

I can assure you that many of your past and present sups over the years have to be coffee clutching in the morning meetings and bringing you up laughing and saying what a runner and pushover we have here.

Uhhhh...did you quote the wrong person?

that's not even specialist pay

that said time studies went the way of the dinosaur a long time more than "a few years"

 

[el blanco]

don't need a time study,



when you're going to dishonor it anyway

That was meant for the BOG BOY my brother.

The Corporate folks worked the Preload and tried to run a second Preload Sort after we left the building. All our air was late. The plan was to clean out all the rolled trailers and then shuttle the loads out. My supervisor finally brought mine out at 5PM. I was working my 6000 section, I just took the ones that were in the 6-8000 sections. I took about ten stops and ran about 240 total. I wasn't running my route twice and stay out all night. When I got back, routes were stacked out on pallets all over the place. Maybe they can come in and try to clean us up again tomorrow.

They need to get Abney's ass out there!

 

[Rack em]

They need to get Abney's ass out there!

But he started out as a preloader and worked his way up the company. He knows everything and runs this company soooooo well. Why should Ups get rid of such an outstanding leader?

I was missing 44 stops/packages for stops today. All my NDA were late and three were missing altogether. I wonder what tomorrows plan for failure will be. Large mounds of missed packages still stacked everywhere when I got back to the building. Including payrolls and medicine. I did run into somebody delivering packages out of her Corolla. I didn't see a DIAD or Helper phone, I don't know how they were being recorded.

But, Dave says they are all caught up.

He will have you know that he was referring to and only to his center. He cannot speak for other centers. He was in and off the clock by 1815.

Holy hell...... my center went up in flames today also. Line 10 deep to get to the gas pumps at 9pm

I was actually light because of our Preload's continued inability to put packages into my package car. I lost a lot of time looking for phantom packages, they weren't scanning the mountains of Left In Buildings like they usually do. I had to help my golf Cart Helper finish his route so I could get his phone and timecard. My Helper is a Preloader that is working about 14 hours every day, I can't keep him out all night.
