[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1599449, member: 198"] I first read the initial post in this thread while on lunch today. Afterwards, as I was working, I caught myself smiling every time I spent "too much time" in the back of the truck. At one stop I realized that it truly is amazing just how many metrics, reports, and power points are generated throughout the day from the moment we start the truck in the morning to the moment we clock out. Then I thought to myself.....how much paper (money) has ups wasted on these reports? How many man hours (money) has UPS waisted on empty suits poring over such reports? And finally.....why can't UPS (despite all of these reports) figure out what is wrong with UPS today and why we are literally handing FedEx our work on a platter? Then it hit me. The answer to the latter is in the questions themselves. UPS is suffering from a self inflicted slow death by "Pearson's Law" ([COLOR=#0000ff][URL]http://positioningsystems.com/blog.php?entryID=67[/URL][/COLOR]). It is very similar to how someone can slowly kill themselves with otherwise harmless foods by eating them much more than moderately. There is actually nothing wrong with metrics if used moderately just like there is nothing wrong with eating pizza once in a while. But UPS is using metrics much like the obese man who attacks the local pizza buffet. Both are slowly but surely killing themselves. [/QUOTE]
