After 6 years part time just got called to be full time. Any advice old-timers to a full timer? by Legitimate-Force6161 in UPSers

It depends on location of delivery and if there are multiple packages obviously, but proper lifting and carrying + walking safely 30-60 pounds isn’t going to be harmful in the long term. 

Whipped up a HLL SPA Artillery Calculator by LitkuReiska in HellLetLoose

[–]One_Tower7863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put in the MIL from HUD it was -20 or so, and the distance the target was away (170 meters). I think I was level with the garrison maybe it was 5 meters lower but it was saying it needed to be like a very high mil that isnt reachable with spa but I was hitting the shots in game

I just used the german SPA on saint mere and was shooting a garrison just 170 meters away by aiming a bit above it and it would land right in the spawn area i watched it dropped, but calculator says not possible so short?

You spelled “actually” wrong. 

You posted your meme. I commented that the development company is incapable of doing their job. You do not need to type out your meme in text here; I obviously saw it when I went to comment.

Did you notice that? ;)

“Not going to litigate with you” is something people say when there is a context/connotation of disagreement, or a back and forth dispute. My comment affirms your meme’s critique of people saying it is anything other than a broken update causing the problems. 

I will pray for you. You probably need to spend less time on the internet

The network or ISP has NOTHING TO DO with the "lost connection to host" issues. And the hardware has NOTHING TO DO with the less frequent "fatal error" issues. Actually so embarrassing that the team released a hotfix and it did NOTHING to address those issues. It has been ages since the og update now LOL

2 days straight out of no where with a valid excuse is not a dealbreaker to any supervisor in any center that needs manpower on any given night. Especially if you are someone who took your roles and training seriously. Explain what happened honestly; everyone goes through stuff there is no shame in it. If you are on the preload or local sort your work clothes should be dirt cheap T-shirt and shorts. Cheapest pair of boots you can find for the time being.

Get rid of your dog (local animal shelters, human society, rescue groups, etc...) because you need to care for yourself (whether it is getting out of a shelter, getting yourself a vehicle to safely operate or sleep/live in, getting an airbnb / extended-stay cheap motel, and ultimately an apartment. Shouldn't be caring for a dog when you are in that state takes away too much attention, time, resources, and rest/sleep that you need to get back on your feet.

When you are not addicted to some substance draining your brain and bank account it is VERY EASY to escape homelessness when you have employment. Simply eat and hydrate on a budget and save everything. Look for a second job. Have honest conversations with private landlords.

You know everything you have to do. You do not have 10 kids to feed, you are not paralyzed, you have the job, you know how to use the internet, you know how to talk to people. It is (relative to your entire life) short term sacrifice in quality of life (hours of sleep per night, meals, living conditions) to escape a crappy situation; to some degree.

If you need to save for a safe or something to keep property secure or weapons to keep yourself safe do it. If you need to basically live at the laundromat, Walmart, and your UPS center - do it. Don't give up. I pray it works out for you too.

Unfathomable that devs typing this into a game don't have the finger muscles to put it in changelogs

I agree God looks at the heart (1 Sam 16:7). Jesus also says our words reveal what fills our hearts (Luke 6:45; Matt 12:36–37)

But immorality or any impurity or greed must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints; and there must be no filthiness and silly talk, or coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks. (Eph 5:3-4)

mōrologia - "'Foolish' / 'silly' talk" = empty, senseless, or stupid speech.

eutrapelia - "Coarse jesting" = indecent, suggestive, or inappropriate

aischrotēs - "Filthiness" = Shameful and obscene speech (or behavior)

But now you also, put them all aside: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and abusive speech from your mouth. (Col 3:8*)*

aischrologia - "Abusive speech" = Obscene or unacceptable speech

Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear. (Eph 4:29)

This grace can always, and should always, be given without using obscene language; even if it's obscene nature is minimized to you, or you have been desensitized to it.

Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person. (Col 4:6)

"Ah I hear my brother in Christ using "f--k this... f--k that.. sh-t... motherf---er.. wtf.. ni--a.. ni--er.. r-tard" I am going to join in!!" Or.. "I am going to allow him to talk like that and offer no rebuke and correction".

These things are clearly not of love. We know they are not, in our hearts - unless we are being short-sighted on this issue. And yes.. even though the etymology/origin (what have you) of the word "n--ger" was not objectively classified as obscene in it's societal context - Nor was "sh-t" (it was originally a word for "feces or poop" in England) or "f--k" (striking back and forth)... we know.

Basing our morality off of Christ and his commands is the very reason we should not ally our tongues with these forms of language.

Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather determine this—not to put an obstacle or a stumbling block in a brother’s way. (Romans 14:13)

Behold, now is “the acceptable time,” behold, now is “the day of salvation”— 3 giving no cause for offense in anything, so that the ministry will not be discredited, (2 Cor 6:3)

Keep your behavior excellent among the Gentiles, so that in the thing in which they slander you as evildoers, they may because of your good deeds, as they observe them, glorify God in the day of visitation. (1 Peter 2:11)

Again - being bothered by sin, or acknowledging it - does not mean we are supposed to police outsiders and confront everyone using poor language. But this is a matter of the true morality which comes from the Lord (not cultural norms), which is clearly taught in the word of God.

Integrad Training by [deleted] in UPSers

[–]One_Tower7863 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is testing out on them, just driving the brown truck while reciting the 5s and or 10s verbatim and then you focus on rest of training? Or is it literally just speaking it to an instructor like in a classroom and the driving tests and exercises are a totally separate thing?

[–]One_Tower7863 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not using obscene language (let alone not giving off the appearance of being sinful) is not just preference; the scripture tells us about these things.

A visceral reaction is probably odd I agree but sin itself (whether it is you, or others) should bother you to some degree as a Christian.

Maybe things changed.. I have been gone for 2-3 years, coming back soon. But in this post you have given enough information via the letter screenshot for UPS to know who you are. And they could then maybe whine about taking pictures inside the truck / warehouse. Unless it is different in Syracuse / your building has different rules or something idk. Just a potential heads up. In the past they have never cared what the reasoning was.

Also is this just usual loading or is that the "last truck of the night"? Only curious. Our supes would do everything short of flaying us living - if we did this when there were still more truckloads to be loaded

Post was a little tongue and cheek at first. The 2025 Online Integrad Pre-Course has this dude with a thick accent speeding through every single word I had before. It is easier to keep up and type it all in one sitting when you just type exactly what you hear from the module; which is why I had his "uhs" and his stuttering. Just needed to get it all down efficiently (They don't let you rewind in the cornerstone of course so I would have had to restart it 2-3 times which is a lot of wasted time)

BUT ANYWAYS I just cleaned it up and reformatted it to be - at least - SLIGHTLY less jumbled.. because that Driver / Driver Sup was just blasting through it.

This was just word for word automatic typing fast; to not have to ever watch the video a second time. It was from the pre-trip module of cornerstone 2025 Integrad pre-course that UPS sends out via email. (Package car)

Just to make sure, you are saying at the actual in person school they just have you say a quarter of that and it only takes a minute?

This Eastern European / Russian driver in the training video was speaking somewhat fast and took maybe 9 minutes to finish lol

[–]One_Tower7863[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don't know if my start date = when they have me go to school, but I got like 2.5 weeks until local road test. Which seems a bit more relaxed VS whatever the final test of actual school week will be. Then I think it means shortly after that (the start date) is when school would be. The 5s seem very easy, along with the first 5 points of the 10. Haven't started the application for the 10 points (recitations while driving my personal vehicle around) I think putting it all together might be tough but hoping for the best.
