[QUOTE="35years, post: 2755294, member: 60822"] Supervised vs unsupervised? Oh, you mean unsupervised [B]vs[/B] a 3 day ride where the supervisor helps the driver in countless ways... -Opening doors, closing doors -Getting the attention of the person to sign while driver is sheeting/unloading to expedite signature -pointing out the location of mis-sorts in the truck -Driver going around house to DR pkg and sup stays in front and yells cust is now out front -Sup intercepting on calls and reassigning to alt driver -load sup making sure load is perfect for 3 days, sometimes including taking off a few select bad stops, every label up and out, etc. etc. -3 days for ride never chosen at random or when weather is bad -Sup alerting driver to not forget to work in this or that stop -sup steadying unbalanced load on cart or, heaven forbid, sorting, flipping labels up, or lifting pkgs from floor to shelf while driver is away from the truck. -sup walking ahead of driver at a business to clear the way. -all messages normally sent through the DIAD to driver on 3 day ride handled by the sup via a cell phone call. -sup driving to or from route to "demonstrate" while speeding. -sup walking at unnaturally fast pace to speed driver's pace. I could name 20 to 30 more that have happened to me personally on production rides where the sup is supposedly "just observing". [/QUOTE]
