[QUOTE="BrownChoice, post: 1268252, member: 49817"] Thank you, Dragon. Can any management use this? Because it seems whenever I'm trying to track down a driver who is of the stubborn type and wont use their cell phone, the HR or supe only tells me which next stops they have.. Correct, UPSTATE. And I also agree.. Seems like if ORION ends up working very well, they will in the future sync up a gps device, like a TomTom, to the Diad to save hours worked. I don't see how the union could fight it because I don't believe using or not using something like this is in the contract, no? Im willing to bet if they'd have spent the money to implement this, INSTEAD of Orion, it will have saved the company way more money, and costed far less dollars. But maybe this is their plan in the next step after they get Orion to work out very well in the end..... We shall see! I think the on-car GPS, using a voice spoken turn by turn direction system could save UPS quite a few dollars, actually using it though should not be mandatory. Some of the biggest enemies of UPS, and all the other delivery companies, like miles driven and hours worked, could be shortened.. And I do believe, "IT'S COMING FOLKS" [/QUOTE]
