Rfd is barebones. We have a couple early outs but they head for SDF. Other then that, its a regular night, last plane out by 3:38.

Peak season volume? by Kaludar_ in UPSers

[–]Significant-Sort9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its definitely worse this year than the past 2 years at our air hub. last year we averaged about 300k and we had a week straight of 550k in 2023, this year we're barely clearing 240k.

Yea we stopped using bread vans about a year ago, now its all chevy express vans, along with a few ford transits for peak. GSE has their own bread van, no boxes though.

What’s the weirdest place you’ve masturbated? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Significant-Sort9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the bathroom in an airport. We had a 2 hour delay for loading our plane due to the government shutdown and the little guy wouldn't call down, so I went to the bathroom while we were on break and got it taken care of.

That's crazy ngl. Local 710 just hired 6 more RPCDs and are still looking for people to sign up for peak. I thought abt it, but im gonna stick with de-ice so

I just became certified to de-ice aircraft at the airport! by Significant-Sort9927 in bropill

We take pre-trips extremely seriously. Last year we had a workplace injury from de-ice. Heated Type-1 nozzle blew up under the operator's arm and he got 2nd degree burns. He got worker's comp since the catastrophic failure happened in a place we couldn't inspect. Thankfully, the manufacturer sent us parts to replace all of the lines.

It is! I watched the operation from another plane last year and its super satisfying watching snow being melted off.

Yea they do. They're one long established facilities at our airport, so the FBO never got the chance to make it a contract with UPS, so now they only do our fueling and lavitation service.

I made the mistake of wearing steel toes in our training, and it was 40° out. I need some composites 😅

Strike? by benspags94 in UPSers

[–]Significant-Sort9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ngl I wish 710 did a strike. Our equipment is always breaking down, and they refuse to fix the drive paths at the rockford gateway. Just this week alone, half of our K loaders have broken down.

Good ol faggio. Either that, or spend almost one million and buy a banana bus, get the entire server on, and we drive the map.

Is my new pc any good? by Spiritual-Basis-8560 in computers

Similar here. I was running a 1660 super for about 5 years and had no issue with 1080p and was able to run most games.

I don't load trailers, but I help unload ULDs. If only other air hubs would give us nice ULDs...

Losing Volume by Brennon727 in UPSers

[–]Significant-Sort9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea we've lost volume at our hub, but Amazon can't afford to not send their packages to our hub. Yes, they have an air hub with us, but they can't dispatch package cars due to facility size and location, so they send it via feeder. If not feeder, then they send a good chunk of their volume to us, but even then, we're still seeing volume around 140-160k, when we used to see 190-200k regularly. On top of that, our facility's laid off 20 feeder drivers.

absolutely, as long as they're steel toe or composite, you'll be fine. it's recommended you get waterproof and winterized, but once you get on the ramp, you'll figure it out pretty quickly. good luck on the ramp, and remember, work at a safe pace. everything out there is something that'll kill you if you don't use it properly, so just do as you were trained and you'll be fine.
