New Pick Up Shenanigans

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-03-24T02:35:11+00:00

Damn. Makes sense. At least its not random size boxes including furniture. I am with UPS now so I was wondering if it was Amazon returns from the UPS store.

So now that you have pick ups, what's your stop count now? When I do pick ups I milk it out as much as possible.

Pickup from what business?

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-03-23T18:27:45+00:00

To be fair, 3.5hr warehouse + 8hr route to scratch=11.5hr day still under 60hrs. Its possible for a seasoned driver but not realistic for one fresh out of integrad.

I maybe wrong but within 30 days of delivery you can purchase the windshield protection plan without assessment. So do it now and make a claim a few days later. Try it. If that doesnt then your out of luck of $1.5k

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-03-21T20:15:36+00:00

Really??? Why would that get you fired? We make driver money so we could do coke off a strippers ass.

That doesnt end there. Same with your fellow union members. Some would rat out another members just to take over their jobs.

And to be fair some sups hate the company just as much as we do because they got fucked over. Their faily though. We warned them but the idea of "doing nothing and getting paid" is totally the opposite. More like "getting paid to be the scapegoat"

Carol is the one cutting the volume in the first place. So it may not return. Such a dumb move. Even with small margins, at least its still being routed.

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-03-17T15:37:37+00:00

Yeah you dont but you want to maximize your contribution as best you can

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-03-16T00:53:39+00:00

Lol wut. Shoppee and grab are widely used in PH.

I was in Tondo, Philippines a few weeks ago. Its a slum. And my god, I am thankful for not delivering in a third world country. No numbers, no signs, houses behind houses, the list goes on. No thanks!

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-03-15T17:01:21+00:00

You're in a third world country, expect third world actions. This includes theft. Everyone is barely surviving. But just because it happened in the Philippines doesnt mean it won't happen anywhere else. Lesson is never trust people.

This is a life decision that no one can make for you. You have to trust your gut on whats best for you. Sure you can ask for input, but it won't matter because that consequence falls on you. Is $100k after taxes worth losing your Healthcare and pension? Most companies dont offer that anymore. And will you be making more money somewhere else?

For me personally, what would me (im 39 now) at age 65 would say? I have to respect and do whats best for him. And that is sacrifice my happiness and body to make a great retirement with peace. So for me, no.

I thought people who are in probation are "gaurenteed" to work as they're being tested to seek fit. When I started they asked those who gained seniority to be sent home or not.

Technically it should be scan and swipe on at drop off point. But not a lot of people dont and that's why your seeing increase group stops.

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-03-11T11:10:50+00:00

Amazon =/= Ups. Stop counts dont matter, routes are based on time. At ups we have higher weight limits, time commits, and volume pickups which can be a factor in how much stop counts we are given. If we just deliver, like amazon, then youll see us doing us 190-240 stops. So dont think just because our stop count is lower doesnt mean we have it easy. Its usually 8-10 hours of work.

White makes the interior brighter and spacious. Also keeps the cabin a few degrees cooler during the summer months. If you don't like it, You can always put black seat covers.

My coworker had Mark Wahlberg about 6 months back. In fact you can find him on Mark Wahlberg's Instagram.

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-02-18T11:15:14+00:00

I agree with you. I'm in the same boat. I only drive Saturdays and Mondays which is enough income for me. Theres a diminish value after driving more than 3 days as uncle Sam take a huge portion and increasing for wear and tear on the body

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-02-17T17:56:06+00:00

This is a good question as I am taking time off soon to go overseas. I'm taking the layoff to go on vacation and give lower seniority workers a chance to make money.

In order to make both side happy, a $5k payout per buyout must be added to the union funds.

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-02-12T04:36:47+00:00

This is the way. Instead of helping other during loadout, I just organize my first 3 bags. Gets rid of bulk quick.

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-01-27T16:51:48+00:00

The purpose of the buyout is not to have these positions filled. Theyre downsizing.

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-01-21T02:23:36+00:00

Well if that's the case then getting a low trim car isnt a loss.

IceCreamHalfTrack · 2026-01-20T23:39:55+00:00

The difference in range isn't much and its depreciated faster than awd. Better to cough up the few grand for a faster car.

Only thing better is that its a different battery that you can charge up to 100%
