[QUOTE="soberups, post: 427498, member: 14668"] First of all, make sure you have some paper and a stopwatch or wristwatch of your own. At some point during the day, you are going to ask your supervisor to demonstrate the methods and workpace that he wants you to follow. This is where the fun starts. Once he gets into the driver seat, pull out your pen and paper and start documenting. Using your watch, time how long it takes him to do the various elements of the job. Monitor his SPORH and point out to him when he is failing to maintain the pace he wants you to keep. At every stop, time how long it takes him to enter the vehicle, buckle the seat belt, put the key in and start the engine (7 seconds allowed.) Time how long it takes him to select a package (24 seconds allowed.) Continuously inform him when he is unable to perform these elements of the job in the allowed time. Remind him when he is speeding. Remind him when he is failing to maintain an adequate following distance. Distract and confuse him by saying numbers out loud while he is trying to concentrate on finding an address or memorizing his next stop. Put him on the spot by using his own tactics against him. Break him down. Drive home the point that he cannot do the job as well as you can. Force him to accept the fact that he is totally incapable of living up to the expectations that he is trying to place upon you. Make the production ride such a miserable and humiliating experience for him that he will seek an easier target elsewhere. [/QUOTE]
