[QUOTE="'Lord Brown's bidding', post: 1150571, member: 32753"] I always thought what ever management asked me to do in relation to my job-and this definitely relates-was my job, so long as they compensate me for it (that is, on the clock). "Work as directed", yes? It's nice, though, that there is additional material compensation involved in this particular directive. I think many drivers don't turn in leads, despite it technically being part of the job (working as directed). However, there are far bigger fish to fry, with a more direct impact on operations-not to mention pursuing leads could slow down "the operation"-that, by and large, this doesn't really get much attention. The reason no one will be disciplined for this is: one, it has not been negotiated into the contract, and two: they discipline one they'd have to show they'll discipline all, and it isn't worth it. Far better to get us to realize it is not only part of our jobs but a beneficial one to both parties and do it ourselves, without force. One question: if I could work your route, would you be upset if I turned in leads from the customers on your route? [/QUOTE]
