[QUOTE="OLDMAN3, post: 1831640"] A lot of you guys think the driver must have been doing other things wrong, or was a slacker. Sometimes that thinking is correct... when you have a case like this where an employee receives excessive discipline. But sometimes it is UPS making an example out of someone. Sometimes it is a case of the company and the union feuding and a driver is caught in the middle. Or the company using the employee's job as a bargaining chip for another purpose. Sometimes there are too many drivers on the payroll and anyone doing anything remotely dishonest will be fired. Sometimes the District or Division manager is on a power trip. We have all seen discipline used to pressure production. But it is not always the reason for discipline. In all cases the best response by the driver is not to go faster, but to do the job as perfectly as possible. [/QUOTE]
