[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 322816, member: 9789"] I don't doubt you heard a comment like that. People miscommunicate all the time... everyone is guilty of that. We are human and don't always get our point across the right way. He was referring to the 80-20 rule. No matter what you do, where you work, how you live, to move in a positive direction you need to prioritize what will get you the biggest bang for your buck or your effort. If your manager said that they are taught to [B]harass[/B] he misspoke. All I can tell you is that in all my years as a manager, there is no unwritten rule or thought process at any level that I have observed that feels that we can be more cost effective if we get rid of senior drivers, just because they cost the company more. [B]If that were the case - I would have been fired years ago as a manager because they could get 2 managers for what they were paying for me![/B] If there is a "target" on a driver's back (or any employee including management) it is because that person is in the bottom 20% of the "hot button" at that time. This is life - you either continue to get better or you go. Every successful company or person uses this sort of standard to improve. If the company is in the bottom 20% the same rule applies!
