[QUOTE="IWorkAsDirected, post: 329408, member: 13559"] I agree, I almost wonder if managers and supervisors don't have to meet some kind of quota as far as firing someone, or catching someone and try to fire them. We had a driver fired a few years ago because he had asked for a list of pick-ups which he now longer picked up to be removed from his board. It never happened and instead of arrowing down or whatever he would have to do he just quickly stop completed them to get them out of the way and down to pick ups he did do. He was fired for stealing time. Just last week we had another driver fired for a similar thing. A part-timer was driving out to meet him to pick up air from another town, and the part-timer drove past a pick up the driver was supposed to do. He asked the part timer to do the pick up on his way in or out instead of himself driving on out there. He recorded it in his board as the part timer had no board. I agree he should have talked to management, I would have never in a million years taken this decision on myself, but.... instead of firing him, they certainly could have given a warning letter at the most, or just explained he had over stepped his bounds and went ahead and worked something out that would be best for all including the customer.
