[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1090278, member: 14668"] The company has two options as far as I am concerned. Option A; I will continue to go out every day and use my 26 years of driving experience and 18 years of area knowledge on my route to make the best, most productive decisions I can regarding how to deal with the needs of the customers and the day-to-day variables of the job. Or......... Option B; I shut my brain off [B]completely [/B]and run the route [B]100% their way[/B], unthinking and unquestioning, according to EDD or ORION or whatever the hell program they want to implement. Not 80%, not 90%, but [B]100 effing percent[/B]. Their plan, their fail. Missed businesses? Not my problem. Missed pickups? Not my problem. Out of fuel on some back-ass country road at 9:30 at night? Not my problem. You want "compliance", by God you will [I]get[/I] "compliance". What will NOT be an option...is for me to make an already difficult job even [I]harder[/I] for myself by trying to do "percentage on trace" arithmetic in my head so that I can generate an arbitrary 85% compliance metric on a report that some IE nitwit will look at and masturbate to in his cubicle. I have a route to run in the [I]real[/I] world, and if some guy I have never met isnt happy with the numbers I generate he can kiss my ass. [/QUOTE]
