[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1797054, member: 198"] The dribble should only be recited verbatim by management personnel that have a job that includes duties that pertain to package/feeder work. They should be able to do so ONLY to provide consistency in training across the board. Other than that it is a waste of valuable time and resources to beat the phrases and their punctuation to death when teaching the methods to drivers. There is no correlation between driving safely/following the methods and insanely reciting a bunch of dribble verbatim. It is impossible for a driver to simultaneously recite the dribble to themselves and concentrate on the other tasks that require their attention during and between stops. We would all go insane. That is what I do. What I don't do is waste anymore time obsessively memorizing DOK verbatim. I was required to in driver training but in the real world the basic understanding and core of what is in the 5 Seeing Habits and the 10 Point Commentary is all that is needed. And that is the problem. The ability to follow the methods isn't hindered by being incapable of, or refusing to, memorize the grammar and punctuation of the safety dribble that was concocted in an office by a desk jockey. I know this because I haven't tried to recite [I][U]ANY[/U][/I] of it verbatim since I was tested on it in driving "school." I know exactly what the 5 Seeing Habits means and use it daily but I couldn't recite it to the T right now even if I wanted to. And the 10 Point Commentary? LOL! No thanks. [/QUOTE]
