I never indicated what I believe. I just stated that if I was worried about it (which I'm not) that I would prefer a physical timecard over electronic. Why are you so defensive about this? Would you be so shocked that a supervisor would really alter time cards? I know for a fact it happens because I've seen it done. And yes that supervisor got called to the mat for it, but that was the time he got caught. I have no doubt that it happened before and since. Just because any editing is supposedly saved doesn't mean that time isn't being shaved, because I doubt many people pay close enough attention to their time to notice a couple minutes here and there. Anyway, like I said I'm not worried about it so you don't need to come at me with your patronizing attitude like I'm some kind of ignorant noob.
SX,
First I never said nor thought you were ignorant. I had no intention of patronizing you, but I'm not a noob either.
You said this: "When you punch in digitally with a code they can alter that on the computer without anybody knowing about it."
Maybe I misread what you wrote, but the implication to me was that an electronic timecard at UPS has no audit trail or double checks.
Would I be shocked if a supervisor altered a timecard to reduce a driver's paid day? With 30,000 management people I guess anything can happen, but I think this is extremely rare.
There are dishonest drivers and there are dishonest management people. Neither belong at UPS. The vast majority of our management and hourly employees are honest, hardworking people.
This thread makes it seem like this a regular occurance...
