[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 655709, member: 4653"] Yes, it makes perfect sense. And no, I would never expect or believe UPS would spend money on something that doesn't increase the bottom line. Just this week I was directed to transfer my helper to another driver that would use him for the rest of the day. I was also directed to "clock him out" for the 5 minute ride to the other driver. If the helper is making $9.50/hour then that 5 minutes is saving UPS about 70 cents. If UPS is focused on these minute cost savings, then I doubt they would waste money on telematics. That being said, the cynic in me tells me UPS is so sinister that they wouldn't mind taking a loss on something that would allow full visability of their labor force and a tool to fire their least productive employees. I know its a stretch, but I'm just sayin'.... [/QUOTE]
