[QUOTE="BrownArmy, post: 783281, member: 18225"] I was told by a pretty-decent full-time sup (that lasted about 1 year) that they HAVE to find about two or three things wrong with whatever driver they are observing... Yet another reason to follow the methods... I'm a method's man, but honestly, I don't use the hand-rail 100% of the time. To follow drivers around and gig them on not using the hand-rail seems counter-productive to me. Goofy...I understand that there is a system in place for observing drivers and that makes sense in the larger picture, but as a driver when you're guilty from the get-go it doesn't engender a good working relationship with your supervisors. On my last ORO a sup busted me for not using the hazards...turns out the hazards weren't working (relay?). I showed said sup the non-operational hazards, then sup said, "Oh yeah, also you should fold in your mirrors 100% of the time!"...on a road an airplane could land on. Like I said, I'm a methods man, but folding in your mirrors 100% of the time is retarded. If it makes sense, I fold the mirror in, but most of the time, if someone hits the mirror, it's because they hit the whole damn truck... [/QUOTE]
