[QUOTE="quad decade guy, post: 5327256, member: 77939"] In a perfect world........where things "ARE THE WAY THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE"........ Alas.....they are not. But you see.....we work at UPS. You say: "So? Methods are what you are suppose to be doing....the rest will fall in line....." Uh no. To wit: I have a long feeder run. I often have to drive a CNG. A CNG can't make my run non-stop. Why? I don't know why UPS has vehicles that are inferior to other vehicles. So, it will require fueling onroad. There are only 2 places to fuel along the way. Often, the pumps are inop or my fuel card doesn't work. You get towed.....And where is my assigned diesel(that will make it nonstop?) Who knows....broken(because we are too cheap to fix it), it is given out to someone else....So? You say. Well, I get a phone call(on-road)....while fueling.....why? We don't have a freaking fueling option....ON-ROAD! You put in breakdown. Why? IDK. They act like it isn't happening....just like the hub, traffic problems and so on. This is just a small taste of everyday incompetence. I won't get into the hub problems as they are just too numerous. Point: We are held accountable for every second of our day. Just putting central sort in your IVIS or delay or whatever doesn't tell what happened or exact details of which we are held accountable. You say: GPS doesn't matter, nor in-cab surveillance..... I don't know....is scratching my nuts stealing time? Distracted driving? Our jobs require many variables. I get weary of getting my integrity questioned(that's what it really is) when I'm just negotiating obstacles out of my control and put in place by the incompetent leadership and even co-workers. Say, why won't the hubs get in line? [/QUOTE]
