[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 581930, member: 4653"] Sober, What a great post as you echoed my settiments exactly. I work hard to finish the route and get home. I put in sales leads to help the company I work for and I'd rather spend my time doing pick-ups than deliveries. The AMEX card is a bonus and great incentive. However, if the AMEX card and "growth" program didn't exist, I would still try to steer our sales-reps to companies that use the competition. I want UPS to be here for another 50 years as much as anyone. What gets under my skin is the "growth" sup. in my center asking for sales leads every week. I told him this 1 year ago about 6 months after I got on the route. I asked all my customers that used Fed-ex for contact info regarding a change to UPS. I entered that into the sales-lead screen of the DIAD. I have about 25 business stops. These companies have not changed in the last 1.5 years, but the "sales-lead sup." wants 2 new leads a month? How is this possible from 25 static businesses? I hate to use a cliche', but he's beating a dead horse. When I see an opportunity I will bring it to his attention, but please get off my case for something that is out of my control. Thank You, Brownie [/QUOTE]
