[QUOTE="soberups, post: 684100, member: 14668"] I'm not an expert on how time studies "work". I do, however, have 23 years of experience in how they [I][U]dont[/U][/I] work. To answer your question....if it is deemed necessary to create an allowance for "personal delay and fatigue"....it in no way changes the fact that many of the elements I described have no time allowed for them even though they are a necessary function of the job. It is fundamentally dishonest and unfair to place an expectation upon someone...under threat of disciplinary action.... without giving them the time and resources to fullfill that expectation. It is fundamentally dishonest and unfair to hold a person accountable to an arbitrary "standard"....that [B][I][U]cannot[/U][/I][/B] be challenged or verified, and that will [B][I][U]never[/U][/I][/B] be corrected no matter how demonstrably flawed it is proven to be. The majority of "studies" are flawed in the company's favor. They create a "standard" that can only be met by working off of the clock. Only an idiot would believe that this merely a convenient coincidence. [/QUOTE]
