[QUOTE="soberups, post: 819285, member: 14668"] A person gets "stressed out" by an OJS because on a certain level they fear the authority of the supervisor. When you make the fear go away, the stress goes away also. Knowledge is the power that can make that fear go away. Knowledge of the methods, knowledge of the contract, knowledge of your rights and responsibilities as an employee.....and knowledge that [I]the person sitting there in the jumpseat with the clipboard is totally incapable of living up to the expectations that he is trying to place upon you.[/I] I have had countless OJS's in my 23 years. None of them ever mattered, and none of them ever changed anything. During an OJS, the supervisor is [I]required[/I] to find a minimum of 6 items that "need improvement" on each page of his checklist. If he cant find 6 things, he will simply make them up. So if the driver is truly doing his job correctly and to the best of his ability, there is no point in worrying about whatever might get scribbled on that clipboard. The OJS is usually nothing more than an excercise in job justification for the sup who is performing it. [/QUOTE]
