[QUOTE="TooTechie, post: 1181147, member: 28388"] The problem is that since gps/telematics, they are 100% metrics/report driven. If they can quantify something or they think they can, they think they have full control over everything and can continuously reduce costs by focusing on a single metric or piece of data. An example is the mileage kick with Orion. Everything else be damned--all that matters is mileage to them right now because it rolls downhill and those in power think if they can reduce miles then everything else is irrelevant. The problem is, you may save a few miles if you focus solely on miles, but you become inefficient and ineffective as a result. (digging through shelves, not getting bulk off so you can be faster, providing poor service by not getting off stops that you know certain businesses need at a certain time,etc). [/QUOTE]
