[QUOTE="JustTired, post: 728523, member: 10234"] I guess I don't understand the corporate thought process. Do they really think that when adjustments are made to the standards due to a new technology, that 85-90% of the drivers suddenly slow down in an effort to thwart the gain? It would be interesting to know whether these technological savings are obtained by a calculation done in an office or by demonstrated performance in the real world. I would guess the former. Who is getting fooled here? Is it the driver who continues to do the same job he has done for years, yet can't figure out why he suddenly runs late on a daily basis? Or is it management who continue with harassment expecting a different result? I have no doubt that a small percentage of drivers do try to "game" the system. But punishing everyone with unrealistic standards won't change the bad drivers. But it may change the good ones. I'm not sure what the "end game" is the company is trying to achieve. But if it it really is cost-savings......better come up with a plan based on fact and not fiction. [/QUOTE]
