Can anyone explain to me why our feeder employees are so concerned with how much time it takes another driver to complete a run?? I personally have had senior and junior drivers comment on both how fast and how slow I have done jobs, what gives? why dont drivers mind their own business.....
Well, OK. I WILL mind my own business. My run IS my business and I'll run it the way I was taught and in accordance with company procedures. I don't care HOW you run it...fast or slow. That's YOUR business and if you can live with yourself and be comfortable you're doing the right thing, then knock yourself out!
Remember, though, if you are burning the run up, are you running safely? We have drivers here (remember, I say, HERE!!!) that do the same thing. You know what? Most of them can't even get to the one year safe driving milestone. Can you?
We have one driver here (notice the "HERE" again?) that burns everything he gets on, well more than him but I'll just use him for an example. Already this year, he's dropped two trailers in the yard. Why? Cuz he's "Got to get going. They'll be on my case if I get out of the gate late". Hmmm....I think picking up the trailer, checking for damage, hooking it back up then filling out accident paperwork, kinda made you late too.
Do you run like this? I'm not accusing you of doing it but from what I have witnessed and by your being sensitive to others opinions of you, it appears you are. And if so, looks like you're gonna hafta live with it or do things the right way to get them off your back.
