[QUOTE="Whither, post: 5295437, member: 76643"] Thanks for the video. I'll add: since I started following ORION I've realized how much I was stressing myself before. I know my route like the back of my hand, but poorly-sequenced add-cuts and multiple manifest updates made every day an unnecessarily complicated puzzle. I bailed and started running the trace. I only thumb through my board twice a day to take note of possible service failures and go wherever ORION leads. I take a water break at nearly every stop. I take the time do everything as safely as possible and follow the methods to the best of my knowledge. I no longer feel like I'm in a hurry at all. I feel much safer behind the wheel and when making deliveries. There's little danger of "getting into it" with an angry customer because I'm in a good mood. Of course it's the company that put that pressure on us. But as Teamsters we can led it slide off our backs and insist on working safely and offering good customer service. That's the best way to protect our jobs and avoid accidents and useless arguments, since, as you point out, we're always on camera. [/QUOTE]
