[QUOTE="spidey, post: 101951, member: 1798"] That's a great point. This issue here isn't management vs hourly or skipping lunches, it's about a very really problem happening right now that affects every one of our jobs and our customers. Some DIADS are failing in the heat. That is a fact. That leaves the driver stuck, the customers stuck, the people at the center scrambling like crazy trying to find and prep replacements (most centers are allowed to have one or two extras on hand for every 60 or so DIADS in use. When the 4th driver in a 60 car center calls in with a dead one it's a panic.) By the time a new DIAD is brought to the driver he is behind and hot and pissed, so are his customers, so is the OMS being screamed at by the customers, the drivers and TSG. Now, when they discover many, not all, but many of the DIADs that failed were left in the back of package cars, why shouldn't they PCM for you to not leave them in the back? Maybe even suggest that if you are going to spend your lunch somewhere air conditioned you take it with you? I know that hourly are programed to look at management as an attacking bear evey time they open their mouths, but think about it before you freak out. Do you want to be sitting on the side of the road in 100 degree heat waiting for a new DIAD? Yeah, that'll show 'em! The "us vs them" crap is taking this company down just as fast as the bull hockey corporate pulls. This isn't an issue of being oppressed by the man, they are asking you to keep your DIAD cooler when possible. Take your lunch, take your board, ignore it till you're done. [/QUOTE]
