[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 493103, member: 927"] If you read the origin of this thread, it asserted that an operations manager can change allowances to make different managers, supervisors, or drivers look better / worse. This cannot be done. They have no control over the time allowances. What you are mentioning is that Corporate I.E. changed a time allowance. That DID happen and it happens all the time. Corporate I.E. sends out work measurement change notices regularly. The particular one you are referring to was done absolutely horribly. Here is what happened: When DIAD matured over the years, the time it took to record stops got quicker. Look at how long it took to sheet a stop and write down the tracking number before DIAD and how long it takes to do the same thing today by scanning. Scanning is much, much quicker than writing down the tracking number, but the time allowance assumes the number was written down. Corporate I.E. knew this. They were "afraid" to make the change when they first figured it out. (That was probably in the early to mid 90's). Then PAS and EDD came out. They decided to overnight right their wrong from previous years. People were told that the change was due to EDD, when EDD had nothing to do with it. As far as I know, there was not a second reduction beyond the first one. P-Man [/QUOTE]
