[QUOTE="sendagain, post: 168428, member: 1695"] Some of the reasons I didn't go into management were: My supervisor at the time was taking a new route out almost everyday and running it the entire day, while also needing to constantly keep on the phone with the office for any other concerns. The constant shuffling of management from center to center: just when they begin to know the area, they are sent off to learn a different center. I would have had to take a pay cut to become a supervisor, while increasing the number of hours I worked by at least two per day. I observed that people who voiced real concern over some policy that was suspect of wisdom, were shuffled off to some crap job somewhere. The office atmosphere in the building was much like that of Tom Hanks in Joe VS the Volcano: a sunless, confined and depressing area, not to mention the noise. I really didn't care to babysit the drivers who always had some problem, or always seemed to work slower than expectations. Management always seemed to be some club, seperate from the rank and file, into which when a man entered, he seemed to be viewed with suspicion from then on. [/QUOTE]
