[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1223913, member: 17969"] Spoken like an IE rep. Clueless. The problem with guys like you is that you dont understand what 100% means. To YOU, it means accepting some bogus number and when its not hit, that automatically means the driver is not working 100%. In reality, todays drivers are working 110%, because it takes 110% to fix the disasters that you management types create on a daily basis. When todays driver punches in, he already knows he is screwed for the day with TOO much work, and when he/she gets to the package car, it gets worse as the load is unworthy of a professional drivers time. The driver already knows they will have to FIX the load once the NDA is completed just to have a CHANCE at completing the day at a reasonable hour, allbeit late in the evening. There is no worse feeling than knowing at 845am that you will NOT return to the building before 9pm that evening. Whats even worse is that ONE look at dispatch and the driver knows, but the "managers" are looking at those same numbers for 4 hours and they cant figure that out beforehand. Its an amazing paradigm. When the same manager rides on car during an OJS, they make a determination of how much work is acceptable for a 9.5 day by demonstration, lets say thats 125 stops plus 30 pickups. This analysis they prefer to call "a lockin". Then, Atlanta sends the numbers to the PDS who immediately cuts cars and destroys that analysis and places 160 stops on the car and 10 extra pickups from the car next door that was disolved. Then, when the affected driver comes in at 930 with volume (500/700 pu pieces) the twilight manager goes beserk and tries to give the drivers GRIEF as if they had any control over it Then, the next morning, the center manager is calling you in the office to ask you... "did something happen yesterday that caused you to run so late?" ... like he was absolutely clueless to the jacked up dispatch he sent you out with the previous day. This is what drivers face in todays UPS. TO someone out of the loop, or involved in todays UPS system, it always falls back onto the drivers to save money. Now we have another P.O.S. system coming down the road out of IE called ORION. This will be another program that will increase mileage, decrease spohr, increase send agains and service fail packages all in one day, everyday for every week. Tons of money thrown into this system in an attempt to fix a problem they created with other programs half thought out. The people who YOU should be concerning yourself with doing 100% of what they are supposed to be doing everyday are the managers and supervisors at UPS. These are the employees who are failing this company. The ultimate result of hiring YES men. Peace TOS. [/QUOTE]
