This is why I imbide in a few cocktails on Sunday evening whilst I grill. Turkey on the grill now. That should take about an 8 pack.

...or hit every fastball...
We had a driver who recently received two warning letters. The first was for failure to work as directed. He had a misload for an area that he had delivered earlier that day which he would not be going anywhere near on his way back to the center. He was directed to run off the misload and decided not to. The second was for excessive back first exceptions. Our center posted a list of cumulative BFE's for the week and he was the top by a wide margin. He has grieved both but has yet to hear whether they will stick or be stricken from his record.
Your fūckin avatar kills me. That is the funniest shīt I've seen on here!!
Once you think you know it all (too late) come to my center. There it will depend on your attitude if I allow you to quit, pray for a transfer or hope you get demoted back to part time.

He's got those pesky little man issues.
I'm not surprised.

What I do not understand is how drivers have the authority to wiggle their P/U windows (which I have been involved with previously), yet can be disciplined if not within +/- 15 minutes of said window. How can we be disciplined for a set of rules/guidelines which are often messed up to the point, where the driver is digging his/her own grave?

You know, if you didn't assume respect...rather, you actually GAINED it, then you wouldn't have to worry much about people not listening to you....
Everyone understands how authority works. And while 'respect' isn't part of some method sheet that we require them to recite, or part of some rule book, it greatly benefits your personal ability to get anything done if you actually EARN it. Assumed respect only goes so far. And what I mean by, 'so far' is that they respect the fact that if they punch you in the face, it will hurt their paycheck. Earned respect will make your life as a supervisor SOOOOO much easier. I was a PT sup at 19, and I figured this out by the time I was 20. You are either really new, or really young.....both?
If you don't know how to earn it, you might as well give up any hopes of your 'commands' ever being productive....

IE boogeyman
if you take the time to read through the thread, you'll see none of this discussion had anything to do with any real life examples
they were just trying to say they could somehow be instructed by an OMS, who apparently is not a supervisor despite the pay code, and then magically be immune from any and all discipline
sometimes i just dont get the circlejerk that goes on here from drivers thinking all managers are terrible, hate their jobs, and are universally hated by the drivers. is the rest of the country really that bad?? cuz NONE of that is true in my building, outside of preload that is....

We have a Tears in our center, and that's all i have to say about THAT!
I've file the grievance on the first warning letter, but mysteriously, was not served the second. I have since fixed the times for the pu's in the board and haven't heard anything else. They are currently schooling me on the DOK and trying to get me to 100%.
