[QUOTE="Dracula, post: 1046267, member: 42691"] I'll say it again: assume every accident is your fault, then adjust your pace and driving style to stay out of accidents. You need to adjust to the fact you will become an irritant to management. You will need to accept that you won't skip breaks and meals. And you need to learn and follow UPS's methods TO A TEE. You will get more time and you will be safer by following their methods. As much as I hate repeating UPS, it is true: there are no shortcuts to safety. If you get behind, DO NOT try speeding up to catch up. If your dispatch is bonkers, same thing; don't rush to get done. Wear out their phone if you have to. That is a much safer way to get done. Or just accept their gift of overtime. Find a good work pace and stick to it. Never change it, no matter how often UPS screws things up. UPS may not like your pace, but as long as you aren't deliberately moving in slow-motion, there isn't anything they can do. Make it a priority to work safe and you will never get fired for an accident. AND you will take care of your body, which is more important than anything else. [/QUOTE]
