[QUOTE="nkprescott, post: 99162"] A few years back now we had an on-road-sup who succumed to pressure from the next higher level of incompentence, his boss that is. Anyway he was forced to do a very extended route and demonstrate to a 35yr driver that his route could not possibly take as long as this 35 yr pro safely did routinely. The sup on his way back from the mountains was puttin the pedal to the metal, encountered on-coming vehicle, had to get on the brakes hard, lost control of the P37 because of wheel hop on washboarded dirt roads, rolled the truck, fortunately was not injured seriously, and of course had missed pkgs. Needless to say he was on the fast-track to a very short career at UPS. By the way, the 35yr pro retired with the distinguished Circle of Honor award. 35 years of safe driving, never a service failure, way to go Bill. We decided not to file a greivance for management doing hourly work because of SURPRISE, failing again to adaquetly staff the workforce. The naive sup had suffered enough, he's lucky to be alive!
