[QUOTE="The Milkman, post: 836906, member: 22760"] Workplace stress..Driver Fatigue..it happens when overworked no matter what job you have.. Air Traffic controllers are a good example and the same goes for pilots. With all the things a driver deals with on any givin day. Stop counts, Bad load, missing air in load but in diad, weather, traffic, cranky customers, sweltering heat or frigid cold, old P-800 with no power steering, leaving the bldg late, meet points, Oca, taking time to explain how to ship internationally to a customer while in a rush to make your next pick-up before closing time, telematics, don't back down, don't back up...etc etc ..it goes on and on..No wonder sometimes with all this to deal with on a daily basis it is no wonder things happen...Since I retired my blood pressure went down...what does that tell you?? No matter how much you make per hour we are only human and some can handle more or less depending on that individual. Upper management would be in same boat so to speak if they were to do this Job, only difference would be that their boat would be taking on Water:surprised: [/QUOTE]
