    You know what's the best. UPS tracks them guys farts! They have had the tech for years to monitor drivers productivity. They use it to manage a company sure, but would make them look like a ###----hats in the industry.

    Had a ups girl tell me that they could not track their truck location to know were it was with my package. I unloaded on her, as a past service vendor, customer. Ups employees investigators, not contractors, but employees people to follow employees. So does USPS. They just watch, or recommends how to improve. Or catches a slacker.

    I was watching Alton Brown on some show awhile back and he was boiling lobster/crab and equated them to the ####roaches of the ocean. He said way back when that's what the poor people ate because it was plentiful, don't recall him saying when they turned into "fine dining".

    Having pancreatitis has something to do with it. It's hereditary and her 11 year old daughter has it too...she splits her time between our house and grandparents and we have to be careful with the meals we prepare.

    Can't have more than 2 grams of fat in 24 hour period and has to take enzyme pills with each meal. Messing it up screws with sugars and can lead to days of pain and being sick.

    Not that being a tweaker doesn't have something to do with it but the primary issue is health and diet. And she doesn't giveashit about any of it.

    We can uncradle ours and it's kind of nice when hammering out a message. Buddy said they got the new ones at ODFL but couldn't recall the brand. He did say ODFL dropped Peoplenet for some reason though.

    A letter carrier friend told us that USPS sets traps for them...they will place cash and other things in a mailbox and wait til delivery to see if they're doing anything more than leaving mail.
     
    PoleCrusher, SL3406, Feedman and 18 others Thank this.
