There is no way that they would process the packages as RTS. They would be back on your car the following work day.

So friggin annoying when you hand a customer your board, they sign (which of course you can NEVER read), and then when you grab the board from them they keep holding onto to the pen. Ok you can let it go it's attached I don't need to grab that too!

Had a refrigerator sized box from Pottery Barn on my truck today. 90lbs
Because of Orion, I could not break off and deliver it early. Too many miles.
Finally get the chance to deliver, roll down her driveway, plan to leave it at the garage, open the swing doors, scanning the box

Did you miss the R in EDD for that address?

 

[HEFFERNAN]

Did you miss the R in EDD for that address?

Something must have been there but didn't see it.
I knew what it was and its address all day and wasn't expecting the sig.
I'll chalk it up to over anxiousness, much like walking up a 100 yard driveway with a box and realizing you were suppose to deliver 2 packages.

Customer standing in his yard, sees me pull up and stop in front of his house, he goes into his house as I'm grabbing his packages out of the back.

Thanks, .

When they let a driver know AT NOON they will be getting help. So they do nothing the rest of the day and throw it on (me) the one sent to help. And also throw in a saver so I get tagged with the late.

Getting help? What is that? They actually send FT drivers to take work from other FT drivers during the day?
