[QUOTE="soberups, post: 791046, member: 14668"] I have no problem whatsoever with being accountable for the manner in which I use my helper. I am also well aware of the fact that I am "spending" UPS's money and that it isnt my money to give away. And I agree that the scenario you describe is not an acceptable way to utilize a helper. Where I draw the line is when I am told [I]before I even leave the building [/I]that I can only use the helper for 2.75 or 3.99 or 4.12 or some other arbitrary number of hours. The person who invents this number hasnt seen the load in my car, they have no idea of the issues that might occur during my day, and they cannot predict which other drivers in my loop that I may be asked to go and help. Nor do they know how far I might have to drive to take my helper back to his car or the bus stop. The only thing this person cares about is a number on his monitor. One nice thing about this peak is that my center isnt trying to micromanage helper hours. We have been empowered to make the best decisions we can as far as helper usage, and I am not aware of any drivers who are abusing it. [/QUOTE]
