[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 351815, member: 13254"] So when are you moving to Texas? Oh what I wouldn't give to have a manager/sup that could and would do just what you outlined. I use the word could for a reason, our OC sups are so few and so spread out that they have little time to do the things it would take to fix the problems. If we could just make the upper management realize that taking the time of actually fix problems the need to put out fires would dissipate. In our center we dispatch between 65-75 drivers daily. We have three OC sups, one a newly promoted OMS that has no idea how to begin running a route, mush less of how to fix a problem ladened EDD (loop dispatch). These poor guys work their butts off 12 hours a day. Our preload sups can't teach the loaders anything because they can't do it themselves anyway. Blind leading the blind. I basically cover about 5 routes and don't feel like I should start messing with the EDD of someone else's area. My main frustration is and has been for many years is that upper management knows what needs to be done, but they don't seem to be willing to "take the bull by the horns". Their main concern is staying off the "lists" anyway they can get by with. I dream of the money UPS would save if all CMs would approach things as you outlined. [/QUOTE]
