[QUOTE="FedEx2000, post: 741272, member: 13621"] Let me get this straight......you don't falsify or cheat the system and are by your account a "7" courier. So everything that FedEx asks couriers to do [B]IS [/B]possible without cutting corners/falsifying? If that is the case, why have you so adamantly stated that FedEx is asking too much, falsification is rampant, etc......are you one of the only couriers capable of these feats? I doubt it....many are quite capable. Sure there's falsification, people get fired for it all the time. I think it may have been more of an issue in the past, most, not all, of us in mgmt realize that it's not worth it b/c the truth eventually comes out. If you cook the numbers this year, you are never going to make numbers next year when RSOPE looks at the historical data to set next years goals. Why set yourself up for failure? As for your accusations that mgmt looks the other way intentionally....i'm not going to say it has never happened, but i think it has a lot more to do with the fact that we don't have the time to pick through everyone's route stop by stop and determine if anything looks out of whack. Couriers talk amongst themselves and other drivers often know these things are going on well before a manager knows about it. Is it ethical to not say anything to mgmt if you know it's happening? GAP reports help some, but aren't perfect. Unless something really jumps out, or a customer calls in a complaint, we just don't have the time to go through line by line. I also agree with Quadro in the fact that I think most mgrs use the first instance as a "learning experience" and tell the courier "Don't do this again, or else...", if they choose to do it again, they deserve their fate.
