[QUOTE="soberups, post: 513516, member: 14668"] Yesterday I had to go help a driver who was sent out on a route cold with 80 stops more than the bid driver normally gets. The poor guy had 90 stops left at 4:30 and I was nearly done so we chopped them in half and I got to work. The area was one that I did not know quite as well as my own, I didnt have a map, and PAS/EDD for the area was a train wreck. So I "cheated" a little and found myself pulling the DIAD out of the slot and looking at it constantly to help myself navigate and be productive. And I *probably* left my door open on a stop or two. I got all the stops delivered safely, but the Telematics report is going to make me look like a spanked ass for pulling the DIAD while the truck was moving. I am quite sure my sup is going to come running after me this morning with his daily clipboard full of things to bitch about and he might even want to call me in the office for a little "motivation session." I have decided that I dont care, and that if he starts whining about it or wanting to show me his little map sheet full of colored lines I will probably be "unable to recall" any specific details. Since he wasnt there and didnt witness it personally, it is of no concern to me. They screwed up the dispatch, they needed help, and I cheerfully, efficiently and safely gave them the help without attitude or complaint. So as far as that report goes....."it is what it is."
