[QUOTE="Channahon, post: 169568, member: 7666"] Local, Thanks for your response. And yes you quote many facts. Wasn't looking to get you fired up, just asking about the package car technology as compared to IVIS. Don't you think it is a safety issue for the driver to leave the bulkhead door open? I can't tell you how many times, I have walked into a driver's car, while they were making a delivery and standing in the bulk area, and scaring the daylights out of them, upon their return. Or drove away with their package car when they left the keys in the ignition. The look on the drivers faces have always been priceless. Was I being a sneaky management person? No, just another UPS'er going home at the end of the day and making a point to the driver. Heaven forbid, I was a thug or thief and the driver didn't make it home to their family that night. And have I ridden with drivers - you bet. Have I trained drivers - you bet. Guess what, the methods are the methods, the job is the job, Have I had great rides - yes. Have I fixed preload - PAS problems - yes. It just always seem a struggle with the Teamsters when implementing something as a company that benefit both UPS and the employee. Same thing when DIAD was implemented. Oh- GPS - UPS will always know where I am. Don't you think they should? Why would a driver be somewhere they should'nt be? [/QUOTE]
