[QUOTE="soberups, post: 564016, member: 14668"] I have been a driver for 22 years. In that time, I have never once seen a flawed timestudy get corrected. I once had a bid route that I ran 1.5 hrs overallowed on every single day, no matter how hard I tried. Management would ride with me. The would compliment me on my methods. They would even help run stops off. The result was the same, 1.5 over. Whoever ran the route when I was gone was at least 2 hrs over if not more. It went on like this for 4 years...constant rides, consant harassment, constantly being overdispatched in real life in order not to be an "underload" on paper. The allowance was never corrected. According to my sup, only "corporate IE" could order a new study, they just "didnt see a need" for one, and maybe if I just "hustled" a bit more things would be better. Then came the day of the new timestudy. Salvation was at hand! Finally there was hope! Result? I lost [I]another[/I] 20 minutes....and had my stop count bumped up even [I]more[/I] in order to keep from being an underload. My story is far from unique. It is normal operating procedure for UPS. The entire system is intentionally designed to create a "standard" that can only be met by working off of the clock. It isnt fair and was never intended to be. [/QUOTE]
