That is Ok when a sup is with you and tells you to do it, then the customer is asking "why is it late" Hey he told me not to cheat, I had been telling him I had too many air stops.
So that got fixed, now they believe me.
And when they dont listen I tell a sup, have a witness I trust, and do the best I can, and then it is on them.
I no longer let the stress of something I cannot do, rule my day. If you can do 13 an hour or whatever and you have over that, obviously, you cannot do it.
It is simple math.
In their conference call they need to tell the truth. That would solve alot of problems instead of being a yes man. But I realize a mgmt person has to be accountable and gets in trouble also. And worries about their job. But if it cant be done, they need to say, they need an air driver, etc. End of story on my end at least.

If it is the former, they have to set that up the day it is recording which would mean the intended to catch you doing something wrong.

can this information help me in any way ?

Don't know if it can help you, but if they recorded the day in question it dang sure can work against you.
Plus, if they are recording your trace that should be a little clue that you make sure all your T's are crossed and I's dotted.
