[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 353104, member: 9789"] Soberups! Nobody is insulting your intelligence! the 10 Point Commentary was originally designed for a supervisor to be able to train a driver and cover everything in a step by step fashion. It was actually part of a supervisor's training. So, you now have the benefit of being able to learn the info that was designed to train a driver in the first place!!! Imagine that! I am telling you this from experience. I was an OR Supv back in 1984-85. I was required to learn the commentary so that I could train a driver. The company has passed the info on to you directly. A lot of the stuff I learned as a supervisor was never taught to me as a driver. It kind of pissed me off! I would have been a better driver! As for the 3 point harness.... I would agree with you. This is something that will evolve and eventually all package cars will have them. You may be be absolutely correct in your [B]assumption[/B] that it has to do with money. But your intelligence should also tell you that if the company has a severely injured (or worse) driver, there is a huge cost associated with that. So ... get it right! Let there be no mistake......The company does care about your safety because your safe driving or lack of it will cost the company big money in the long run. Years ago - supervisors did not have a jump seat to sit in.... we just went through the window if there was an accident. It wasn't until the late 1980's that jump seat frames were added. At least you have a seat belt!!!! LOL! They finally added jump seats to all vehicles. Sometimes you make [B]assumptions[/B] and post like you know it to be a fact.... Be careful... just because you don't have a safety belt that you think you should have doesn't mean nobody cares about your safety. I certainly do! Also - when you and other posters start questioning how the money is being spent remember that you have a pretty solid job because the company is making money. The airlines are not in the same shape are they? At one point they had a pretty solid job also! Not anymore.... Don't bite the hand that feeds you.... and if you don't like the food find another chef that cooks the type of food you like. [/QUOTE]
