[QUOTE="Brownnblue, post: 202462, member: 1941"] Ah, the confusion. The misconceptions. If the time studies and the paid day calculations are supposed to be this scientific bastion of accuracy, WHY CAN'T THE DRIVER SEE IT? WHY CAN'T WE SEE HOW IT IS PUT TOGETHER, AND WHAT ALLOWANCES WE GET FOR THE DIFFERENT UNITS OF WORK WE DO EACH DAY? If it is fair & accurate, management should chomping at the bit to let us know so we can make numbers. I don't think you need a degree in statistics to know that if this calculation is this complex, then the margin of error must be astronomical. Let's see it. My first time study in fifteen years came about three months ago. I was PROMISED that I could have a meeting explaining the new numbers. Guess what? I'm doing about 20 more stops per day than the driver who previously did my route. If you are "measuring the route" how can this be possible? Or is is just more of the "a supervisor who does a good job gets a promotion, a driver who does a good job gets more work" philosophy? Am I asking too much to see the quota system for my job???
