I guess 90263 is forgetting that this isn't FedEx. Since when did 'theft' and 'illegal job action' become cardinal sins? Oh did you mean "proven dishonesty"? Good luck firing someone who is actually working regardless of their pace. It's "work to the best of your ability" not hustle. The trick is to just work at a sustained pace all day. If mgmt gave me 12 hours worth of work, I would adjust my pace so I could last the entire day. 9 hours of work would get them a better pace. I've had managers come out and follow me, walk with me, try to walk on my heels, stopwatch me, go on 5 day rides, 3 days rides and the inevitable surprise ride. Everytime my SPORH went down and I'm still here!
I love PAS!!!
If you are a methods driver, PAS is your best friend. Just do it EXACTLY as it is in EDD, and don't mess around. One stop at a time, by the methods. My workday went from a planned 130 stops to over 185 for an 8.8 day when they implemented it. Not gonna happen! So I just did it as it was in EDD and rolled stops every day (called in of course) until they sat down with all my package detail and EDD and everything matched up. What could they say? The manager had to agree that 130 was a fair day so every day I go out with 125 to 139, and if it's over that they send someone out to take the excess. I'm in by 9.5 every day they dispatch correctly or send help out. Problem solved!
Just learn to do the methods, and drive everyday like a supervisor is riding with you. Do one stop at a time by the methods, shutting your bulkhead door, parking on the right side of the street, DO NOT SORT, use your 30" select and use the handcart properly. Pay attention to when you hit 'stop complete' so the time used for every stop is recorded correctly. Note any unusual gaps, such as customer delays, call in's, bathroom stops, etc; in excess of 10 minutes on a pocket calender. Then file your grievances to force them to dispatch you under 9.5.
It won't happen overnight but if you eliminate the usual excuse of "it's the drivers fault he's over 9.5", PAS can be your best friend.
By the Methods, By the Hour!
