Man. Rip to the drivers who's lives were taken by a senseless coward. I can't imagine being in there while this went down. I worked in the adjacent center from September to February of this year as a driver. This job ain't for everyone. Im sure many factors pushed lam to this point, no excuse what so ever for violence. Even though i no longer work for the company, I was deeply saddened hearing this on the news, the amount of hours you work their gets you sort of attached to the job, at least, it did for me. Thoughts and prayers go out to families and friends of those who lost their lives.

Someone said he killed two sups and the driver he had to help the night before.



Dude obviously had some anger issues.
Who? @fiftyliners ?
Relax brother. Go listen to some Thompson Twins and relive how you did a 45 piece bulk stop on paper one day in 1984. We all know, the job was harder when you did it than now.... really, just keep disrespecting all of us. Btw, I would bet you couldn't do it today, if you had to.
The package "tracking" only had a six digit shipper number stamped on the label side with a number beside it for weight. You didn't even have to completely write every one down on the paper.

I doubt @fiftyliners could complete a metro route today. Blah Blah blah blah blah.

Yes---but we had to chisel that six digit number into our stone tablet and did you ever have to drive a UPS truck "Fred Flintstone" style?

Are you guys managing okay? Everything I've read about the drivers who were killed said what great guys they were. I'm sure it's left a huge void in your building. RIP drivers.
Morale is so low right now. Somber feeling throughout the building. Worst part is, management is acting like this never happened. Why would they want to change their awful practices that screw so many of us over? Not even this horrible event that costed some of our brothers the ultimate price will change the culture. It's gross and they should be ashamed.
