Enjoy telematics and the fact they can't discipline you over it right now. 2013 and the new contract will change all that! Don't think for one minute this wasnt created and designed to be used as another disciplinary tool. You can follow as many methods as you'd like during the course of your day,but bet your ass that ONE stop that took you 8 minutes to deliver will be called into question every single time,no matter what reason you have.
We have had telematics now for over a year and it hasnt been an issue to me personally. I spent the first three months or so thinking about every breath I took,worrying about every red light I hit,every c.o.d.that took too long,every elevator I had to wait 5 minutes for,and every extra minute it took me to find that package loaded in the wrong spot. And now I can honestly say,I don't give a damn about that stuff or telematics. Obey the speed limits,close your bulkhead door,wear your seatbelt ever single time,hold your handrail in and out of the truck,don't idle,rarely back you are doing what you are supposed to do. Don't let telematics get in your head,it's just another tool for UPS to generate another 200 reports and kill a few more hundred thousand trees.
