[QUOTE="Dracula, post: 1035886, member: 42691"] About a month ago, our management team reviewed with every one of our drivers their new telematic system for feeders. They showed us a mock up of what the system could and would do. PartTime Bossman, you can spew all you want about paranoia, but when your management team tells you point blank that, "if we need to, we can look at real-time satellite pictures of where you are". Now, yes, that could be the usual management horsepile that you guys are famous for, but that it what we were told. The real problem is the same problem that we've always dealt with in this company. Production standards always have been, will always be a load of shcit. I could care less whether or not UPS is spying on me. I'm not stealing from UPS, I just work safe and thorough. Too bad management is too ignorant to see the difference. Example: If I'm scheduled to leave my hub with one trailer, my time allowance from the time I clock in, to the time I leave the gate is 19 minutes. From the time I clock in, to the moment I get my tractor rolling after I pre-trip my tractor, it takes 15-16 minutes. So, that leaves me 3 minutes to drive to the door where my trailer is, hook up, pre-trip my trailer and leave the gate. Hmm....I better hurry, huh? Another example: The hub I drive to--usually with a set of doubles--I'm allowed 39 minutes to hit their gate, break down my set, drive to the other side of the building, go upstairs and get my dispatch, sign off my equipment, go the bathroom, get back to my tractor, go find my two trailers, dolly, and hook them up, pre-trip, and leave the gate. Now, the sane humans can look at that, and laugh about the 39 minutes that it is all supposed to done in. IT CANNOT BE DONE. Our sups know this, but tell me to get as close as possible as I can. So I ask them if they know it can't be done, why is 39 minutes the standard? They look at me like I'm speaking Greek. This is why I don't argue numbers with this crew. And I could care less about how and when they watch me. I don't steal time. They will wait 10,000 years to find me guilty of that. So, they try other things. They say I take to long checking my equipment. They say I take too long removing my personal items from my tractor. They do whatever they think they need to do to try and get me under their too tight numbers. So, if your satellites are watching me, I say good! Look at me smile towards the skies while my rig is between the lines of the highways. Watch me do the best I very can. [/QUOTE]
