I’m a UPS driver. It’s not unusual for one of our now severely overpaid part timers to load a box into the wrong trailer headed to a strange destination.
“I’m a UPS driver. “
Thank you for even showing up. For at least three months, Our local post office has been having difficulty finding USPS rural route drivers that work for a week. We get deliveries of Regular Mail about every four days, with packages held at the local post office to pick up twice a week if lucky.
Of course, customers are angry when waiting in line on a Tuesday for an hour while the counter staff are looking in the back for packages from the list of addresses in the line. Always reminding those in the line to thank the workers who DID show up, since working workers are not the problem.
It is ironic that the postal workers check identification for many people. Whoever is going to stand in line for that long without a daggum good reason.
Well, that explains the weird 'tracking course' that is displayed for a package that shipped a week ago but has
been routed through 3 'receiving facilities.'
With a big turnover and high illiteracy among those same part-timers slouching around the regional hubs.
