[QUOTE="DontThrowPackages, post: 1114751, member: 42215"] So you wanted to reinvent the wheel? Well after millions of dollars of manpower and bonuses to those who created this new wheel were finding out its not as round as the wheel we were already using, is it? No. But they'll say it does/will work its just that the drivers are going too slow and aren't helping our new wheel along. Can someone tell me what was the point of creating DRA in the first place? Really, what was it going to improve on that a good loop of drivers couldn't already do better? You wanted to cut hours? Well, every station has plenty of guys always looking to cut out early. You wanted drivers to be more efficient? YOU WILL NEVER GET ANY MORE EFFICIENT THAN A COURIER ON HIS RTE FOR 5 PLUS YEARS! If you think a courier is sandbagging then have a manager go on the road with him. A good manager can tell the difference between sandbagging and a bad courier. And what ever happened to check rides? We use to get them ever 6 months. We don't even get safety ride alongs anymore. An old way of doing things doesn't make it bad just because its old. You will never improve on the wheel but companies throw good money after bad trying to. [/QUOTE]
