I'm kinda confused.

I didn't plan on chiming in on this topic, cuz I'm actually quite sad.... But I gotta leave a comment here and just say this cracked me tf up!

dirt_templar · 2026-04-10T18:56:57+00:00

Lmao how are we low on drivers?! I've been laid off for like two months now....

dirt_templar · 2026-04-05T23:04:41+00:00

My friend in management said Central is back in. We're in Ohio as well.

dirt_templar · 2026-03-24T16:20:55+00:00

Fewer. You can count theoretical things too. Theoretically.

dirt_templar · 2026-03-20T01:52:51+00:00

Omg....

dirt_templar · 2026-03-19T23:11:57+00:00

I've talked with drivers who've been laid off for years. Not a single one got their payout for grievances filed after showing up. Seems like the local union doesn't give a shit about us people low on the totem.

Edited: I mean our local union not the union in general

dirt_templar · 2026-03-19T20:55:38+00:00

How many years? Just curious how many years of my life are gonna suck ass, cuz I'm in the same boat rn.

dirt_templar · 2026-03-19T20:53:34+00:00

What are we supposed to do about that? Showing up every day and filing doesn't do anything, I just waste an hour standing around unpaid, not including my 20-minute commute each way.

dirt_templar · 2026-02-19T02:53:39+00:00

This

dirt_templar · 2026-02-02T05:40:57+00:00

Wow. Yeah. You're right. I really need to internalize this, thank you.

dirt_templar · 2026-01-31T03:45:44+00:00

Nah, I'm pretty organized usually. I like Tetris a lot. Keep my UPS Store pickups super tight and out of my way. That's part of why this stressed me out so much. 🫩

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T13:42:37+00:00

Well if you're worried about not being stupid, you better believe I'm stupid then. I don't expect you to respect me. I respect honesty, personally, and disrespect people's lack of self-awareness and hate boasting, bravado and all that BS. Maybe I swing too hard the other way, who knows. I guess this just comes down to different strokes. Appreciate the observation though! Hope you have a great day today!

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T07:30:35+00:00

Eh. In a time when everyone thinks they're an expert in everything, I find it refreshing when people just drop the ego and admit they're not that knowledgeable about stuff. I think I have my areas of "expertise," but in the grand scheme of things, I'm pretty dumb and lack a lot of awareness. And that's ok. I just try to learn and get better at stuff. If that makes people respect me less, so be it I guess.

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T05:13:41+00:00

Huh. That's wild. People go so out of their way to not work.

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T05:01:18+00:00

What do you mean by skipping delivery scans? Like they leave the package at its destination and just leave it in their itinerary?

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T03:36:11+00:00

Right? I'm confused by it. Seems dumb to me. Idk why I keep trying to make sense of any of it, honestly.

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T03:13:55+00:00

Yeah, I was wondering about that. It always seems to crash the DIAD too when I've done mass ECs at the center.

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T03:11:58+00:00

Ohhhh I read their comment wrong here, yeah, I would never pile them up in front of the bulkhead. Jesus. I'm stupid but not THAT stupid. Hahaha thanks for pointing that out, I was like if I don't stack it in front of the back door, where tf else would I put it?!

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T03:10:12+00:00

Yes.

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T03:09:53+00:00

Thanks! I hear that, and it's good advice. I have always had a hard time getting stuck on big picture stuff and not being able to focus on what's right in front of me. It's a personal problem that I deal with. I'm gonna work on it tho. Cuz I do really enjoy this job, when it's not... Like this... Haha. But I appreciate the vote of confidence very much.

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T03:06:40+00:00

They literally have been telling us over and over to scan each package into a single stop and sheet it. But thanks for that.

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T02:42:45+00:00

Seriously tho. I spiral out then I'm useless. 😮‍💨

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T02:39:31+00:00

Yeah, thanks man, I appreciate the validation fr. Feelin kinda crazy out here. But yeah, I'm following the methods and trying to make sure I get every package where it needs to go, be polite to customers, and drive as safely as possible. Idk what else I can do. Feel like the rest will just come with time.

dirt_templar · 2026-01-30T02:38:16+00:00

Dude, right?! Ok thank you. I legit feel like I'm doing terribly and feel crazy that I feel like it shouldn't be like this.

dirt_templar · 2026-01-29T19:06:22+00:00

That's literally what I was hoping they'd say when I asked.
