[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 605474, member: 9789"] Interesting thread - I have not had time to spend on BC lately (still don't!) but I needed a little break today. I always love the thought provoking discussion from EVERYBODY! [B]Tie[/B] - don't let the management bashing get to you. I realize it is more of the censorship issue than an issue with soberups. The mods have a job to do and I think they do it well! You are way better than the few posts I saw at the beginning of this thread. [B] Sober[/B].... I get you! We don't always agree but you have a lot of thoughtful comments that make sense. If we can look past management vs non-management and us vs them we can and will make progress ... if we can't look past that we won't survive. [B]Jones [/B]- Here are the definitions of [U]method [/U]and [U]rule[/U]. [U]Method[/U] - a particular form of procedure for accomplishing or approaching something, esp. a systematic or established one : a method for software maintenance | labor-intensive production methods. • orderliness of thought or behavior; systematic planning or action : [U]Rule[/U] - one of a set of explicit or understood regulations or principles governing conduct within a particular activity or sphere : the rules of the game were understood. • a law or principle that operates within a particular sphere of knowledge, describing or prescribing what is possible or allowable : the rules of grammar. • ( the rule) the normal or customary state of things : such accidents are the exception rather than the rule. You guys spent a lot of posts (who is right and who is WRONG) arguing over NOTHING! LOL! This sounds more like a pissing contest! [B]Sober [/B]- why don't you sit down with your supervisor and show him/her a better way to run your route. I contend that most time is lost in the back of the package car "massaging" the load. Work with your supervisor until the trace is acceptable! It will make your job easier in the long run. Back in the day - 1975 to be exact. My supervisor handed me a bunch of punch cards and asked me to put them in the correct order for delivery. I had to add cards, break up block numbers add streets etc but boy was it worth it in the end. I never forgot that when I went into management. Anytime a driver asked for help I was there to assist and help fix a problem. My point is that this didn't just start with EDD. If your supervisor won't help, find someone who will.... that "someone" is out there and will help you. I guarantee it! [/QUOTE]
