[QUOTE="soberups, post: 4037061, member: 14668"] As drivers, we are supposed to follow the 340 methods. These methods are the very foundation of our job and are grilled into us from day one. Failure to follow these methods is grounds for discipline, up to and including termination. I downloaded a copy of the 340 methods and hghlighted the ones that are completely incompatible with ORION. The company has literally created a no-win scenario where we have been given conflicting instructions and we are [B]wrong[/B] no matter which instruction we follow. Conflicting instructions under threat of discipline is harrassment and over-supervision, which are prohibited under article 37 of the contract. These are the methods that are incompatible with ORION: Section 1 paragraph 2—have a set routine Section 3 paragraph 4- minimize miles, choose travel path to avoid unneccesary delays Section 3 paragraph 5- use knowledge of delivery area Section 3 paragraph 6- follow planned pickup order and choose best path to minimize miles Section 3 paragraph 8-park appropriately for stops close together, park closest to stop with most difficult package handling situation Section 4- paragraph 1- planning ahead, negate the need for constant rechecking and rehandling of packages, make fine adjustments to delivery sequence to optimize walk path, visualize travel path for next few stops Section 4 paragraph 2–know your delivery area, deliver to addresses on the corner from cross streets, use preferred alternate delivery points for time sensitive deliveries Section 4 paragraph 3–remember 5 stops in advance. Section5 paragraph 3- face labels for selection and move stops forward to the selection area. Section 5 paragraph 5- visualize upcoming stops Section 5 paragraph 6- minimize package handling Section 5 paragraph 9- utilize 30-60” selection area, deliver sections in the same sequenceas numbered, deliver shelf 1 first, deliver rear door stops to clear floor space, utilize 60” floor selection area. Section 8 paragraph 2- plan ahead while walking to use optimum path to next stop, optimum storage for carry aid. Section 15 paragraph 2 section the car to contain pickup volume, keep pickup package seperate from remaining deliveries. If you follow the methods, you cant follow ORION. If you follow ORION, you cant follow the methods. The company needs to make a choice... [/QUOTE]
