[QUOTE="upsgrunt, post: 565271, member: 9295"] Maybe- I'm just wondering about a middle ground here where it is fair for everyone. Where drivers who do everything by the book and have great methods don't need to be dispatched less than 8 to be on road less than 9.5., and drivers who can run bonus don't have to be added to in order to show on road hours at 9 and to bring the center or district numbers up to averages that keep the big wigs in Atlanta happy. Our center runs bonus-don't know why, but we make UPS look good. I'm not saying we work harder than anyone else, but as a whole, our center beats the averages. Should an over 9.5 dispatch be grievable even though the on road time was less than 9.5? The union and UPS says you are getting paid punch to punch, and no you can't. The dispatch is how long the route SHOULD have taken. Why was bonus ever offered if not for the incentive of getting in early? You know- customers get their packages earlier, and the local sort gets volume earlier, if the only outcome is to add more work. Tie, when you finish your work ahead of 5 or 6 oclock are you expected to do more work because you are efficient for that day? Or if you have to stay late because you have too much to do is it because your methods and time management are sloppy? Or do you just go home early that day and enjoy your family? I'm not trying to fight or bait anyone here- just want an honest, middle ground where everyone can benefit. My opinions may be wrong, but it doesn't hurt to wonder. Steve [/QUOTE]
