[QUOTE="danlin, post: 974382, member: 483"] Please, are you serious with this post??? Missed is ALWAYS ALWAYS an option that is why it is in the DIAD. Throughout my 32 year driving career I have had many missed pieces and they have never been my fault. I have even told an center manager that he was going to see a record missed day if he didn't help reduce my load. I have always had a saying that missed pkgs are NEVER the fault of a driver they are the fault of a preloader putting the pkg in the wrong place or the pathetic management team dispatch. I am always in control of the load until it is loaded way out of my control at which point I call in and put the missed pkg decision on the center management team, at that point it is their RESPONSIBILITY to make sure there are no service failures instead of asking the driver "why" and "whats the problem".I have done this numerous times and have never had ANY kind of discipline because as long as you let the management team know that you will be missing pieces it is THEIR responsibility to make service not play the blame game with the driver. You sound as if you have been brainwashed by upper management that we can't miss packages but in truth I have used service failures as a way to show management that there is a big problem on my route when they won't listen to what is really going on out in the streets. In no way should my rant be misconstrued as me not being a service providing type of driver. I have always provided the best service to all my customers even with all the restrictions the management team puts on us and my customers will attest to that! Peace...... [/QUOTE]
