We are ready!!!

How about shifting the WHOLE company's start time back 1.5 hours, drivers start at 7:30 am help finish load and on road by 8am. LIKE IT USED TO BE. 9am start time is what is killing peak. I used to have time to run air and ground together and get into resis early and use the daylight to my advantage

I ran one of those crapwagons yesterday.

150 stops in 7 sections. The sequence numbers were so tight that the preloader could not get them in order.

Not a good day for me.

Gotta love that...oh the 8000 shelf is full? Let's do an add/cut to 8700!

 

[watdaflock?]

God I'm bitter

That's just crazy talk. Let's start at 10:00 and send out a bunch of safety messages to work safe after dark. Now that's a plan.

They're putting the finishing touches on a shanty town facility in the parking lot with 5 unload bays and 60 package car bays. I guess we're ready..

 

[Wally]

If there is no air cutoff dates, it will be a repeat of last year.

 

[joeboodog]

We are so ready. We have a bunch of ODS messages ready to go.

Still putting new drivers on the road where im at. Really dude, put new drivers on 2 weeks before peak wtf you idiots lol. I already know whats going to happen, their struggling and all the veterans will have to bail them out. Wouldn't be surprised to see a couple of them quit after their thrown into the inferno of madness lol. Once again the idiots will find a way to screw up this peak also, imagine that lol.

Still "asking" us for referrals for seasonal drivers, WTH. And there pinned on some corkboard, is the referral I gave them for my niece, on leave from college, in the air force reserve, who wants to be a helper, but no one could figure out how to forward it to Erie, Pa.

Someone in our center spent their day affixing those "helpers wanted" stickers to packages. I must have had at least 100 of them on my car. Do you know how long it takes to pull off and throw away 100 stickers?

 

[9.5er]

Our center cut all extra routes yesterday. Still have not put the first helper on. No extra trucks on the yard. Yeah we're ready for another epic failure.

Wow...help wanted stickers on packages? That seems desperate and tactless....even for Brown!

That's a 55lb surepost for a P.O. Some mailman is gonna be pissed!

We got 14 inches of snow on Monday. Tuesday we could not get it all done, but got a good dent in it. Still had some misses on Wednesday. Today, everyone got a light day so no one had to worry about running out of hours. I was in a couple of clicks over 8 hrs and was the 3rd or 4th in, asked the OMS how others were doing and he thought most would be done before 1800.

I think it was a pretty nice gesture to put in extra routes to get everyone done early.

Why would you throw them away?

Are you sure it was surepost? Or just deliver to the post office then to the final destination?
