WOW - I thought this was a Tieguy vs Canon thread of the past!
It's been a while since I read an entire thread, and what amazes me is that as intelligent as UPS employees are, one would think mutual respect for one another's responsibilities, would resolve what is a conflict in the work place.
There has been some name calling, all because of different personalities and views on a system that when implemented properly with the input of the drivers, operations management and IE does work. As noted in some of the posts here.
Operators are accountable for their operational numbers, and it is in their best interest to ensure IE has properly worked with everyone in the operation to make sure PAS and EDD works.
If anyone is still having problems with their current management team, go to the next level. Don't let PAS/EDD run you into the ground with aggravation and stress. Life is too short!!
JMO and experience.......
