[QUOTE="soberups, post: 703327, member: 14668"] They are being instructed by corporate to obsess over the nickel-and-dime details. I dont have a problem with Telematics. I do have a problem with the manner in which it is being used. We are literally being drowned in paper every morning, with reports about where and when and how far and how fast we backed up. We get a report if the BH door got unlatched and we moved the car 20 feet before closing it. We get a report if the seat belt latched 1/1000th of a second before the wheels began to rotate. We get a report if the DIAD got pulled while waiting at a light. When you combine its frequent inaccuracies with our managements obsession with irrelevant trivia, the system loses credibility in the eyes of the drivers. It would be a good system [I]if you used it to focus on the stuff that matters[/I]. But instead, we use it to justify writing reports and then we write reports about those reports and then there are even [I]more[/I] reports about the reports that we wrote about all of the reports. Those of us who [I]do the work[/I] are growing weary of carrying the dead weight of those who write the reports. [/QUOTE]
