[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 890804, member: 23516"] The people doing these things aren't thinking things through very well. Then again, MFE is the guy who says we should screw the company out of revenue, then he complains that the company is far too tight-fisted when it comes to compensating the employees. Look at the scenario he presented. They all agreed to purposely maximize their P1 lates. What does that tell you? The manager's decision wasn't as bad as they made it look. There's this goofy belief that killing the company on service will accomplish something. That is true. Sometimes it spurs a manager into printing out 2 week's worth of route traces for a route and comparing the info, running inquiries via MapQuest and Google Maps, and going out in his own car to see how long it takes to get from one stop to another. If the manager is nice, he'll direct you to deliver the bulk stop at the expense of one or two other stops as he smiles and says something like, "Let's not let that happen again, OK?" If he's not nice, he'll have something for you to sign. A word to the wise... if he asks you to explain those lates in writing, he's giving you some rope HINT HINT. [/QUOTE]
