UPS driver kills pedestrian

[Thebrownblob]

Would that be grievable? The same as air drivers delivering ground packages?

We have grieved it before and one they do not bother us now if we want to clean our windows we used to have a cleaning crew do it years ago but that’s been gone for a long time

Very few details, but one detail I can assure you of it that he is not currently working

Guilty until proven innocent. Maybe not even then.

I know some of the FT car washers resent the fact that I have a higher hourly rate then them.

They’ll get over it

UPS does not care if you got a ticket especially if you hit a pedestrian. Depending on the fact of the case, he may get his job back or he may not.

What's funny is I think this is one of those situations where UPS would want him gone no matter what. Those cameras might help him beat UPS in this case...depending on what happened, of course.

Very true a lot of complaints about those forward facing cameras, but the only thing that we’ve had happen with them so far is drivers being cleared from accident since they might’ve been charged for without them

They’ll get over it

When they get rid of me.

When they get rid of me.

Like I said they’ll get over it, and I’m not certain how you know they have a problem with it, and if they’ve told you personally I don’t know why you would care if you have the seniority and you’re getting paid properly they can go pound sand.

I bet UPS is gonna be seething if those cameras clear this guy. No matter what happened, they don't want the publicity that a driver killed a guy. And he's still employed.

Investigators said that the UPS truck was traveling eastbound on Sorensen Parkway, approaching 32nd Street, with a green light.

David McCormick, 40, was crossing Sorensen, walking south, when the UPS truck collided with him, Omaha police said.

We had a fatality accident along time ago, and the driver got his job back, but quit because he could not do the job anymore because of his nerves.

That reminded me something. The other day, I saw a guy with a walking stick walked on the road facing traffic. There are 3 lanes and he walked on the inner most lane facing traffic. Cars had to slow down to avoid him. His reason? Snow-covered sidewalk.

He is in the wrong because he can't do that. I don't care if he has a walking stick or missing one leg for that matter! If you can't find transportation and don't want to walk on the snow-covered sidewalk, stay home!

Most people don't use sidewalks in the 'hood. Not even in good weather. They walk down the middle of the street and dare you to hit them.

I think he meant grieve it as a car washer, since drivers are doing his job.

Because that’s normal, right?

Car wash doesn’t windex windows, ain’t nobody got time for dat. Only the exterior gets cleaned.

They do wash the windows. But use dirty water.

Possibly but we don’t include car wash with anything on the inside of the truck. They only fuel and run it through the car wash but of course we have over 300 trucks to move every night
