That’s Craptacular
It's January....flavors of the week start. Whenever the number of off routes gets too high in one of our centers....the Preload Manager will ban ipods and radios for a week.
Grievance worthy?

No radios, no coffee or soft drinks allowed outside of break time, no bathroom breaks outside of break time, no talking, anything else I'm missing? All this for $8.50 an hour and 3 1/2 hours a day.

You are not hitting your production numbers. Perhaps if you would come in 20 minutes before your start time and pull your cages it would help. Off the clock of course. You are a good worker and we want to keep you, but only if you can hit your numbers.

lol yeah...I'll be right there. BB58 doesn't work for free....I don't care how backed up my slide is, I will sit there....and point and laugh until my start time. Their PPH numbers mean nothing to me....only numbers that I care about are the ones on my paycheck.

Have seen younger guys do this. Need to keep their job. Or they will tell you it makes the job easier and keeps the sup off their back.
That reminds me of the preload full time sup at my hub. Yells at everyone and threatens to send people home early for going slow. I used to double shift but quit because of aggro sup.
One time the sup yelled at me to hurry up while I was crossing the street to enter the building. I haven't even clocked in yet. That was the last straw.

If I were a part timer about to double and heard that I would have turned around and gone home.

I am not a troll. I justify my post with this response:
The supervisor was doing his job running the operation. He didn't belittle the poster, or harass him, call him names, etc. He said hurry up. It's his job to make sure his operation is a well oiled machine. Would you rather the supervisor do the union work while the poster takes his time getting into the building? I think not.

Wrong. The employee wasn't on the clock and wasn't even on property.

And if this was said before start time then it's likely to irritate. A supervisor wants to joke around with his employees off the clock, that's cool, but don't be surprised when your employees find it hard to forget that it's their boss talking
to them even though they're off the clock.People are petty, and we tend not to forget.
