[QUOTE="scratch, post: 365314, member: 1674"] When I started this Thread, the intent was to comment about the company policy of cutting back on the hours of the Carwashers in my building so that they don't have enough time to do their job. I have since found out that we have about eight Carwash folks, most of them shift cars and only one actually washes 140+ vehicles and is supposed to check the oil and coolant too. Back when I started in the Atlanta Hub, we had a carwash that we would drive through when we returned to the building. My Center moved to a newer Hub, and they just have hoses they hook up and would try to wash them. The last couple of years, it has just got pitiful because of the company wants to save a few hours instead of letting these guys who want to do their job actually do it. This has nothing to do with people "being lazy". This has to do with the company no longer caring about how our vehicles look. We used to have pride in the way our trucks appearred in public. I would be happy to wash it myself if I could. A couple of times I have pulled the front of my P7 into a do it yourself wash near my area and sprayed my cab out. My P7 is too tall to pull into the stall, so I can't wash all of it. We used have to have a hose outside our shop, but it was removed. Every time I have attended a Safety Meeting for the last 20+ years, I have suggested that the company add some buckets and squeegees next to our fuel pumps so we could keep our windshields clean per contract. "That sounds like a great idea!" I am told, but it never gets done. This is a cheap fix, too. UPS hounds us about safety, but when it comes down to it, guess what my conclusion is. :dissapointed: [/QUOTE]
