[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 3273608, member: 14596"] I agree with some of your points. Which is why in my example I defined the terms of a slacker. You of course would not recognize my definition as the Union fights tooth and nail to defend slackers as there is financial incentive for the Union for the work force to work as slowly as possible. I understand that (don't respect it, but I understand it). In your example, you may have heard all you need to know, but I haven't. You're focusing on just as much irrelevant information as your management team is. Who cares how many drivers are scratch in your building? What I would ask is how is this guy running compared to other trainees on the same training route dispatched at the same level? What were his methods like when the sups did observations on him on days 7, 10, 15? ( It's been awhile, can't remember the exact days in the packet). Was he still driving in circles after day 5? If so, and he's running 3 hours over when the next worse trainee was at most 1.5 over the same time on the same route then he probably sucks and should not be a driver. And even in that case you and the Union would fight tooth and nail for him because of your financial interest in having slacker drivers on payroll. Like I said, I get it, and if your management team is weak enough to allow that, it's on them. [/QUOTE]
