[QUOTE="quad decade guy, post: 5065666, member: 77939"] You sure about that chief? You are given "allowances" for activities. Knowing how accurate or fair they might be. Travel to and from area for example has certain times allowed.....depending on the area and such.....time studies.... Now again how fair? It used to be said.....deliver when you deliver....drive when you drive. You get time for cod's etc. You don't get time for delays, standing around, not ready....can you take that to my grandma's down the street etc. How about taping up pkgs? All time killers. It was also pointed out about backing.....you only get credit for miles(gives you more time to offset losses)(this is why folks used to "drive" their lunch)....don't back! The same for picking up bagged small and such or dumping bins full of smalls. Pick up 500 pieces in 10 minutes.....made you look like a hero and all the rest. Most of all kept you out of the office and the list. All of this was about running scratch. You may have been down on SPORH but make up for it on pickups or miles etc. That minus sign on the report was all you/they were looking for. Now, when you cheated(dishonesty)/manipulated the numbers.... And for those that say production doesn't matter.......I say BS. Every UPS guy I've ever encountered was hustling.....Alaska to Hawaii. Every Hub and it's operation looks and runs the same.....they have to. They smell the same.....same filthy bathrooms. LA to NY. Feeder operations to pkg. Watch a line of pkg cars leave the building....anywhere. All the same. I will say driving on a multi level parking garage(Feeder) in Meadowlands was interesting. But getting there(from LA) was the same as getting to Dallas from NY. Or Nashville. Go to any of these places and UPS is instantly familiar.....bare bones signage, parking, space and general crappiness. That said to say this-production is required for this company to function......and it does. Contrary to what is contrived on BC. [/QUOTE]
