Ups pcs in the snow?

Why?

It would explain the 10 minutes that he was "parked" in that apartment complex.

Who cares?

When I got stuck, I tried to get myself out. If I couldn't, I called in for help.

I never coded the time out. It was "stuck time."

This is the "new" UPS. 10 minutes of inactivity will raise some eyebrows.

Maybe the BOG isn't really all unicorns and bluebirds.

I never had to explain my self

I actually had like 6 different units to deliver to, in this complex..Totalling 11 packages. I doubt there will be any questions asked. I also didn't hear anything the following few days, I wasn't at all worried about it.

Neither have I.

You can write me up though, Dave, if it would make you feel better.

If the snow is bad enough that I am chaining up, getting unstuck etc then production and idle time and Telematics are about the last thing that management has the time or inclination to worry about.

 

[watdaflock?]

Not my job.

This is the union way. Sit on your ass and make somebody else do it, instead of showing some positive self pride.

 

[trickpony1]

The company has sucked the "positive self pride" right out of some of us.

Did you put the 10 minutes in the DIAD under Other Work, Breakdown, On Road?

Not exactly a breakdown.

The old package cars would go thru anything. Never got stuck. I had old gmc. It was fun at times. It was also sweet because it felt like power steering on those days.

 

[QKRSTKR]

It's even worse in feeders. The new twin screw tractors are awful in the slick stuff. On all of the new twins, the back axle is a dead axle. We call it the "snow anchor".

Those are double $$ falling from the sky now.

They do suck. Had to use chains last year just to get out from under a trailer. Hooking up is also all kinds of fun with those.

There is no mailbox option in the diad. There is just "box"

Big arrows down-E. But not all centers have it. Years ago I was sent to a different building for one day that was shortstaffed. They did not have mailbox option in the board. When I sheet mailbox, I'm not actually putting it in the mailbox. I bag and leave off the to the side. Or some homeowners have the mailbox built into a brick structure with a separate compartment underneath. I will leave in there
