[QUOTE="brownIEman, post: 5659915, member: 14596"] No, you don't have a clear idea what IE does. You have not spent time trying to work out a plan for projected volumes in a twilight, midnight, day sort, let alone an entire package division. You simply have not. You look at a single route on a daily basis and project from how jacked up the huge number of variables involved has made that route and think from that "I have a clear understanding of what IE does". It is no different from a brand new IE pencil neck looking at your route, looking only at one single delivery to the front porch of 1725 E Roosevelt Rd, and going "Yeah, I have a clear understanding of what Thebrownblob does everyday all day, he should easily be able to finish 175 stops before he begins pickups at 3:40 every day". As for your "coming on here" comment, look around. You are in the Partners forum. Also, for what it is worth, I am not maligning any individual Teamsters work ethic. The people with the highest work ethic I have met in my life were Teamsters (sadly, many of them were labeled "runner-gunners" and maligned by their less competent and or sluggish breatheren. You see posts on browncafe maligning runner-gunners all the time.) Again, I am not trying to malign yours or anyone elses specific work ethic. I have merely pointed out that putting value in a high level of work ethic is no longer a part of the Union culture generally in the US. I find that a little sad, that's all. [/QUOTE]
