[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 1263350, member: 17969"] Lets deal with reality with this post. First, if a driver obtains signatures in a DR area for no other reason than to increase the "planned day" in attempt to avoid a "split", this is cause for TERMINATION. The reason? Obtaining uncessary signatures increases the time allowance per stop and this pumps up the "planned day". If a driver pumps up his planned day to the point where he/she is breaking standard and getting paid "bonus", then a dishonesty case is created. The company can also discharge you for dishonesty for simply obtaining signatures in a DR area that are NOT required by the shipper. There was a case I handled where a driver was simply going into the signature screen and typing in the last name of the reciever at each DR stop and then NOT obtaining a signature. Even though he wasnt getting a physical signature, the clarified name alone changed the stop allowance to a signature. It was a glitch in the diad, but it had the same effect of obtaining a signature. His time allowance went up in all his DR areas and he started making bonus each day. IE caught the act and contacted the center. The driver was fired for dishonesty/theft. I was able to restore him with an agreement to NEVER do this again. A driver may get away with obtaining signatures in a DR area for a little while, but once you start making bonus, somebody is going to see that and an investigation will be started. The OP posted this thought wrecklessly, and NOBODY should follow this advice. TOS. [/QUOTE]
