[QUOTE="jaded1, post: 766668, member: 26375"] The one question I had for my manager regarding the "new and improved" time study method is this: my bid route has the majority of the resi's in a neighborhood built on the side of a mountain. Ok, so you are telling me that google earth or gps or whatever they are using says I walk 50 feet to the front door. How does the fact I just hiked up a 45degree driveway and 3 flights of stairs to the front door get figured in? It's just like when we lost 'road variances' years ago for the poor folks who have to be subjected to the brutality of washboard roads all day long. I realize that the managers are getting hammered by their superiors on these numbers, but we don't do our jobs on 'paper'. It is in the real world- and every day comes a whole new set of challenges that we have to overcome to provide the best service we can and to make the company the profits we all benefit from, and to come home safe and sound. So please, just leave me alone and let me do my job. [/QUOTE]
