[QUOTE="Bubblehead, post: 3142022, member: 14176"] Many of you people are completely hypnotized by the repetitive, suggestive rhetoric of the Company that is designed to reduce liability, not "at risk" behavior. The Company doesn't really want us to take measures that will reduce productivity, they just want to be on record saying they do, hence the conflict between allowances and reality. These arbitrary allowances are manipulated by the Company and are designed to encourage us to "chase the rabbit". Then when something happens, the Company who insures and bonds us as drivers, can claim we were trained to the contrary. This shifts the liability to the driver and away from the Company. The answer is....there is no all inclusive script. Every scenario is unique, and an exercise in common sense and judgement, as the Company leverages our personal life against our professional life. You need not look any further to validate this hypocrisy than the "bonus system", which rewards those who push the envelope. So, in my case, I look after my future by looking out for the public, while preserving my body when I can, carefully and by the hour. Allowances be damned. [/QUOTE]
