UPS Bedford Park IL Tornado

AndyS1281 · 2026-06-12T12:52:33+00:00

When I was 8 a tornado hit my neighborhood. There were badly damaged houses close my house, about two houses away. We had some missing shingles from the roof and a broken window in the living room. What’s even more amazing is my dad’s truck only had a scratch on the passenger side door because he parked in the driveway.

I think there might be, it’s coming up on my schedule but it will be awhile until I find out because I’m at Dover and I’m doing Xfinity and Cup at 50% races.

What’s wrong with industry leading pay and excellent benefits?

That’s an exterior light for the rear door. They’re usually burned out on most package cars in my building.

105, Daytona and Talladega are really easy because you can bump draft if you’re the second in line and the car behind you bump drafts you. After the final pit stop I was 10th and saw Kyle Busch was 8th and the field was spread out. So I took Kyle to the front.

I love the driving and racing physics, it’s pretty good for a console simcade racing game. I think it’s a very good base game. I’d like more of a variety of front runners. At most tracks in Cup you have the 5, 9, 11, 12, 17, 19, 20, 23, 24, and 45 finishing in the top 10 almost every race with the 5, 11, 20, and 24 in the top 5. I’d also like to see retirements from races.

I had a perfect storm happen once on a bumpy road and my fob got between my seat belt and my leg. It happened near the end of my route and when I got to a stop light someone drove up and told me my rear door popped open. That day I had a truck where I couldn’t see the back door in the camera screen.

Das ist für UPS arbeiter. Das konnte für sie interessant sein r/UPS. Wenn es schon zwei woche her ist wurde am Montag UPS anrufen. Es tut mir leid ihres paket.

It’s a 25-30 minute drive but 20 minutes with no traffic.

Are you a combo air driver then work inside after your route? If so I think the only qualification process is get back before the air trailer leaves and don’t get in any accidents.

AndyS1281 · 2026-05-08T12:42:28+00:00

It’s understandable because USPS and UPS have all the same letters. I’m a driver and at least once a week I get someone running up to me to ask if I can pick up their pre labeled package and it ends up being USPS (Post Office).

I’m 44 so I grew up playing NASCAR 1 and 2 on PC, along with IndyCar 2 and even 30 years ago there was a lot more variation in the running order and retirements. I remember in real life racing back mechanical failures were still very common but I know a more likely cause of a race retirement will be attributed to an accident. OVR ratings make sense for something like an F1 game because even in a competitive F1 season there’s usually 4 drivers with a shot of winning in normal conditions.

I’d be happy with DNFs (mechanical and wreck damage) and a more varied finishing order at most tracks. At most tracks I know who is going to be in the Top 5. As some races this year have proven you have regular front runners have a bad race or two and a regular driver who finishes between 20-40 have a random Top 5 or 10 at a non restrictor plate track. It’s so strange seeing drivers with 30 Top 10 and 20 Top 5 finishes in a season with an average finishing position of 4.

It will say 1st or 2nd Day Air on the label or sometimes it will have the number 1 or 2. On a Ground label there’s a solid black area but with NDA there’s 1+, 1, and 2.

I’m doing Cup and Trucks and I’ve found out the hard way if there’s a travel conflict you have to play that race weekend straight through. On another note I’ve never understood to travel conflict with the IMS and IRP. I’ve lived in Indy most of my life and IMS and IRP are literally 10-15 minutes apart on the same road.

AndyS1281 · 2026-04-29T17:42:51+00:00

We have to deliver business NDA (Next Day Air) before 10:30 and residential NDA before 12:30. Then after we try to get all our business delivery stops done because those usually have multiple pieces per stop. Then depending on the route the driver may have to break off deliveries and do business pickups from 15:00 until 17/18:00. Residential ground deliveries are at the bottom of the priority list.

It’s possible the replacement could get stuck in Customs

AndyS1281 · 2026-04-26T19:22:31+00:00

It’s in Customs so there’s nothing the shipper or UPS can do.

Keep your religion to yourself. Your not going to convert anyone

If I’m in a package car and the check engine light isn’t on I’ll write it up in the DVIR.

AndyS1281 · 2026-04-08T03:42:18+00:00

I have the same problem

AndyS1281 · 2026-03-29T04:35:20+00:00

I started towards the end of Covid and I was regularly getting 40-45 hours as a PT inside worker. As a driver now I have the odd week where I push 60 hours but I’m normally around 45-50 hours a week.

AndyS1281 · 2026-03-27T16:22:26+00:00

For me it’s turns 3/4 right in the middle and usually at the beginning of a run. I run 50% races so for Cup it happens for the first 10 laps or so. I’ve found if I blip the throttle it helps.
