I'm so upset over my first day yesterday that I don't even want any of this collection
. I had the worst day as a courier! First there were no trucks because they got slammed with deliveries of Redskin tickets so all the AM couriers were still out. The courier that was going to ride with me was somewhat of a smartass I guess because he doesnt like my b/f who used to be his boss and wanted me to drive the biggest truck there, a 900 because it was the only one available 30 minutes after I got there. I'm not trained to drive that truck and I'm only allowed to drive the middle sized one called a 700. I had to go to a manager and tell them that he was trying to force me to drive the 900 and they told him no I wasnt to drive that! Then he wouldnt share his "blue bucket" we have to carry our printer and other items in but he was told he had to because I wouldnt get mine till Friday. So then he tells me that Dispatch screwed me over with 12 extra oncalls and 3 stops that are another route out of our way. I was told in class and by other couriers that dispatch doesnt send oncalls to new people for awhile so I didnt know what was going on and he wasnt any help. We got out of the station 40 minutes late and I dispatch kept sending more on calls and other stops out of our area. I said to him what's going on and he said "well can you handle all these stops" I said I dont know....this is my first day...can we make it back in time to the station" I mean come on how am I suppose to know???? He kept reassuring me we'd make it back with at least an hour to spare. Finally after a couple hours he said he thinks dispatch didnt know it wasnt him running the route and that it was me. Why didnt he tell dispatch? I swear he was just doing all of that on purpose and it made me so mad! Well as it turned out I was the last truck in and BARELY made it. I didnt get in till 9:10 and got home at 10pm. Also I didnt know alot of the roads we had to do these extra on calls at and he wouldnt tell me where to turn until right as we got to the road
I'm going to talk to my manager today about yesterday but I dont even want to go in after what happened
. I feel embarrassed that I was so late but I know it wasnt all due to me.
I have to admit, I went a little crazy with the lipglass!!
