"Management doesn't have to care about people, just numbers." - Laguna Brown

[Hoaxster]

We wish, Upper Management is always harping on us and harassing us to care about our people.
I get so tired of this ... I wish they could give us robots.
Robots don't whine and bitch all the time ... employees are always wanting something.
I just listen to them and say, "I'll get back to you." LOL ... I never do.
If they ask 3 times, I will finally respond. Just pests!
Can't they see I don't care?

Anyway, thanks for listening to my rant.

Thanks to Laguna Brown for inspiring this thread.

I see the numbers game all the time at my hub. I guess I am lucky in that I don't have to deal with Upper Management on a daily basis. My pt and ft sups are mostly pretty decent folks and somewhat easy to approach. I have seen the "we don't care about people" game, I am not really affected by it

Is this unusual?

I hear ya Hoax.

We have overweight, overpaid management come into our building all the time with their soft girly hands and their 80's suits trying to talk to those of us that actually work for a living.

We know they can't wait for the trucks to leave so they can retreat to an air conditioned office so they can repeat yes sir over and over on a conference call.

And then they try to talk to us.

Can't they see I don't care?

Sadly.....this is how UPS management operates.

Thomas S. Monson Quotes | Where performance is measured, performance improves. Where performance...

The only #'s I care about is how many days as a driver I am without accident or injury.

Also, how many hrs. I have invested with my family!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Backlasher]

Also, how many #'s of methodes was I able to keep 2day and how many more improvemnets 2 those #'s I can do 2marrow.

We need to worry about this and management needs to do a follow up on the drivers who dramatically perform better #'s observing wether or not they did it safely by ALL THE METHODES!! if not, then those 3"S shouldn't count!!!!!!!

Observe the runner gunners b4 those with a lower performance. Prove to me that safety means something!!!!!!!

UPS Management has nothing to prove to you.

If you are trying to imply that I somehow fell for something, you must not have noticed that my comment was tongue in cheek just like Hoax's.

Maybe you should go back to predicting weather after it has happened.

that's the worst idea i've heard this week. why the would UPS try to slow down its best drivers??

most of the people i've seen injured or go on disability were the ones that whined about safety and harassment and moved slower than molasses

stop hiding behind safety because you're slow or lazy
