A typical day in my job is going into work and starting the day off with making sure that all my terminals have enough staff for the day, after that I review the past days work of all of the terminals which consists of accidents, injuries and productivity. I look at sph, spc and spp at that time I call all my supervisors to review.  The hardest part of the job Is trying to keep up with the budget, there are a lot of things that aren't controllable like engines, accidents and so on.  The most enjoyable part of the job are the people that you deal with internally like the customer service people and the sales people. I also learned a lot dealing with the unions.  The management people are sometimes hard to deal with but my boss is the best for giving me the opportunity and the chance to become the Regional Manger.  The workplace culture is acceptable.

A typical work day starts out with the load and sorting of the delivery parcels and pick ups.Guaranteed deliverys before 10 am and guaranteed deliveries before noon. Then the normal deliveries and pic ups through out the day. Unloading of the truck and loaded into the trailer for its destination.  Routes and streets are learned very well.  Customers service and communication.  Management was very helpful though out the day if needed to help solve any problems that might occur.  Co-workers were very cooperative and always willing to lend a helping hand if needed. The hardest part of the job was keeping your time schedule intact and keep on time due to traffic and business hours. The most enjoyable part of the job was the people that I meet and the professional relationships that was formed with regular customers.

delivering and servicing pre-programmed  systems for use in daily company pickups and delivery's  I felt that I was treated as a ' temp 'and given only local jobs and had someone with me the whole time. They had a specific speech about how to use the system, and when I improvised a few points to make it easier to understand, they would step in and take over, and admonish me later.

Fast-paced, physically demanding job, especially unloading trailers by yourself
Overnight shift can be hard for some and unless you're driving in the morning, afternoon shift is your only alternative 
Fair amount of opportunities if you are willing to advance in the company
Pay is fairly higher than industrial average, and the more hours you put in, the more $$$ you can make later on

Fantastic work environment. My Supervisor was always available for anything whether it be work related or personal. My team members were always there and willing to do any follow up that needed to be done.

Overall, extremely wonderful company to work for.

Stay in contact with clients, audit accounts to find deficiencies, create more efficient driver routes.  I truly mastered my sales skills here.  I also learnt how to build an awesome team.  I was fortunate to be a part of an amazing team of 20 members.  I think the hardest part of the job was to convince the clients on rate increases.  The most enjoyable part of the job was my weekly in person visits to clients.

The shift was quite fast and learned about how parcels were delivered. Supervisor was great and very helpful whwn asked about some problem that came up. The wearhouse was big and very well maintained. The walking in and out of trucks...lots os standing and walking. Working with others there fun to be with co-workers.

A google review of this company should tell you all you need to know. Completely disorganized.  More important to fill truck to capacity than to make the day humanly possible, and meet customers needs. Terrible customer service
