[QUOTE="HULKAMANIA, post: 1031309, member: 36802"] I would actually love to see the MATHEMATICS behind what they CLAIM saves the company money. Lets say you have 10 drivers working 2 hours OT a day. Thats roughly $1000 dollars A DAY in OT ALONE! How can anybody think thats logical? How many drivers do you think work OT a day company wide? There is NO WAY they are saving money with this IDIOTIC method! Dont give me this OH your saving FUEL mumbo jumbo either. You got 10 trucks on the road running 2 hours more than what they normally would? How would that not justify 1 more truck and be CHEAPER in fuel???? Then this talk of insuring vehicles...OK how many of you guys insure your vehicle daily? Last I checked its 6-12 month payments and Im SURE that UPS gets a corporate discount....OH wait a minute last I heard UPS is self insured..GEE sounds like a cooked up lie to me. Lets not forget the accidents that people brought up in this forum-which have gone through the roof company wide simply because of how they are running us.
