[QUOTE="Channahon, post: 261394, member: 7666"] Let's look at "technology". UPS has, in its operation, technology to prevent almost all mis-sorts. Yet, it does not implement this technology in our hub. Technology is used to prevent misloads, packages entered into the system as going to the wrong place - when they are actually going to the proper place. These packages would, without intervention, be delivered on-time. Not so, with a mis-sorted package. A mis-sorted package is entered into the system as going to the wrong place, and that's where it goes. Which is more important, tracking a package to the wrong place, but that package wasn't sent wrong, and was delivered on-time? Or tracking a package to the wrong place, and was sent incorrectly, and subsequently delivered late? [B]Why isn't mis-sorted technology being used? I've been told that it would cost too much.

I imagine the same analysis tools are still in place to identify who and why missorts are being created. And using the word "stupidvisor" doesn't do much for you either, as the lack of disrepect for management is evident. So are they trying to "intimidate"you? Probably not, just dealing with what they make think is a problem employee, would be my guess. [/QUOTE]
