[QUOTE="Dragon, post: 723788, member: 561"] Just a thought...... [U]Most[/U] of you say you would not driver an unsafe vehicle - yet everyday you make your own decision to be unsafe talking/texting on your cell phone/blue tooth while driving our truck and we tell you not to because its unsafe. (oh by the way you are not talking to us 99% of the time) [COLOR=red]Just because 1 or 2 drivers do it does not mean everyone does it.[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]You truly believe that? at a minimum 50% a day[/COLOR] you drive around (does not matter how far the vehicle travels) with the bulk head door open - we told you its unsafe [COLOR=red]Telematics fixed that, thank god.[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]The second you relieze you do not have telematics that door is open!! Who are you kidding.[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue] [/COLOR]you have a large radio strapped down in the cab - we told you its unsafe [COLOR=red]We also have a fire extinguisher strapped down in our cab, I take out my radio when you take that out.[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]Try putting out a fire with your radio. The fire extinguisher is there for your safety. [/COLOR] you are never prepared to yield at intersection - we told you its unsafe [COLOR=red]99,000 drivers never yield??????[/COLOR] [COLOR=#ff0000][COLOR=blue][U]Prepared[/U] to yield[/COLOR] [/COLOR] you unnecessarily back down residential driveways - we told you its unsafe [COLOR=red]You ever try to deliver 6 pottery barn boxes down a dirt road 3 blocks long and no turn around?[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue][U]unnecessarily[/U] back down - in that situation you would have to back down.[/COLOR] you back down the street to the correct house because you went by the house while looking at your diad - we told you its unsafe [COLOR=red]Which report told you this? lol:happy2:[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]Telematics!! Nothing like google earth with your GPS trace on it....[/COLOR] you park next to the curb on busy road and you do not put your four ways on (rarely do you do it cause your methods suck..) - we told you its unsafe [COLOR=red]Only as good as your management team............[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]If you were trained incorrectly the first time - but have been retrained in the correct method what is your defense??[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue] [/COLOR]and everyone's favorite - not wearing your seatbelt - we told you its unsafe [COLOR=red]This should be done!!!![/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]It ain't!![/COLOR] all of sudden you feel unsafe -now [U]you[/U] want to tell us its unsafe........ [COLOR=red]Whats funny is alot of what you mentioned happens when sups ride with the employee. Anyone remember the photo someone took of their sup not wearing his belt???? [/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]I truely find that hard to believe. I have yet to catch one supervisor with out a seatbelt on - even inside of the building.[/COLOR] I just thought you may want to know why some of us may not have any compassion for you when you call us.
