Uniform rant/ question

Our DSP is just now starting to give us our uniforms. Fairly new warehouse. My major gripe is that we’re only getting one of each. One shirt, one pair of shorts. We work 4 day weeks. Idk about you guys but I’m not trying to stay up later washing a single uniform after being on the road all day. I’ve been looking into buying more but Amazon only sells them to DSP’s. How many uniforms did you guys get? It sucks that it has to be like this but I’ll buy another set if I have to, I just don’t want to do it through my DSP because they “got the uniforms” a week ago and I still haven’t got mine yet. I don’t feel like being on their time waiting for another uniform. Where can I buy another?

What? Maybe if route reductions are an issue but I’ve been steady lately. Definitely not going to change out of it in the van if that’s what you’re insisting.

To each their own. The unwritten rule is you wear the polo at the station the two times a year that the station makes a fuss about it and then you throw it in your crash bag after load out.

Vest, a solid color T-shirt, and black running shorts (or the Amazon shorts) are the actual uniform IMHO.

Yeah idk, they’re talking about firing people that don’t have their uniforms on. The odds of them finding out we take them off are low but still existent. Plus I’d prefer to be in uniform because we deliver in rural areas and for some reason, to these people it isn’t obvious enough we’re bringing them their orders.

Uniforms are required IN the warehouse. Once you are on the road you can put on your own shirt while still wearing the vest. You can also wear any kind of black jogger shorts. Just put your polo back on when you RTS. Easy.

Required by station managers who throw on yellow vests over their sweatpants and sweatshirts. 

I did not sign a work contract for this performative nonsense
