[QUOTE="I GOT ONE MORE, post: 779145, member: 5997"] Good thread. So far. I grasp the capital investment by UPS to improve productivity and ferret out those drivers who are skaters. How many times have some of you went to help out another driver, only to have them return to the building before you. Or those that are an hour plus overallowed every day. There ARE slackers amongst us. And UPS should fix that. I work hard and so should the slacker. When going over the virtual OJS ride with my "soup" ( I'm being kind), I was struck with the fact he never once mentioned how I was underallowed by a minute plus at 9 out of 10 stops, yet only focused on those 1 out of 10 "failures". The largest one was 3 minutes over. The delivery was at a hotel and I had to wait for the front desk to finish with their customer. Now, do I ever make small talk with a customer? Do I answer questions about UPS or talk about a vacation some one just got back from or a common interest or maybe she's just cute. YES. This all falls under the scope of being a driver for United Parcel Service. How, in the hell, does BD think we generate sales leads? I just don't pull them out of my ? I have a job to do, that needs to be done. I know that. It gets done. MANAGEMENT, fix what needs to be fixed, fix what can be fixed. During this spirited chapter in the history of UPS, try not to ruin a 100 year old company that you likely have only participated in for a very short period of your existence here on this marble. Many in management have no idea what it means to move a couple of tons every work day with your hands. Apologies to those that have and understand. [/QUOTE]
