[QUOTE="Box Ox, post: 3103494, member: 48469"] The production standards set by the Company are often arbitrary and ridiculous to begin with. You can't have a reasonable conversation about production with a driver if what the Company calls a "10 hour day" is not actually a real world 10 hour day in the first place. So until the standards change, which they won't (because Company-produced standards will always work in favor of the Company), the harassment won't stop either. So the company will never give up its cornering of both production standards and enforcement methods (harassment) that push drivers to fear for their jobs and work faster and harder until the day they burn out or have an accident and are forced out and replaced by a lower wage new driver. Sure, some drivers push back against it, but the Company gets away with a lot more than it doesn't. And they'll want to keep it that way. [/QUOTE]
