Dont forget to take the stairs two at a time........... I wore browns for a Xmas season way back before DIADs. We had the WOR which was the old pencil and paper log. Shipper #s and sigs. This guy with a bunch of stop watches attached to a clipboard told me to carry the boxes and hold the keys and write on the WOR all at the same time. Look at me stupidly when I asked "When do I get time to watch where I'm going".......

It just goes to show you that the economy is hurting all over. Thankfully UPS hasn't had massive layoffs like most companies.

Our 22.3's are getting bumped a bunch into part time jobs.

There is a fellow who has been bumped from his easy job on night so he went to day to do the same thing, they told he had to do something hard on midnight. It's gonna be a fun fight.

He's doing a different job, but it's easy, on day.
