[QUOTE="soberups, post: 771854, member: 14668"] No system of work measurement will ever be perfect. The problem is that, even in the face of irrefuteable evidence to the contrary, UPS absolutely [B]will not correct a grossly flawed study [/B]under [B]any[/B] circumstances. Ever. That "study" is chiseled in stone and the dispatch will be based upon those flawed numbers [B]no matter how many problems are caused as a result.[/B] To the unaccountable I.E. man who generated the "study", such issues mean [B]nothing[/B]. Its not his problem. He is little more than an absentee landlord, with no regard whatsoever for the conditions that his tenants must endure. He is safely insulated from the reality of his incompetence by a desk. But to the driver who has been saddled with that flawed study, those numbers become an ongoing, daily ordeal. In the [B]real world[/B], this driver will struggle to have any sort of a family life. He will be continuously overdispatched, he will be continuously harassed over production, and his safety and health will be placed in jeapordy by the unrelenting demands to maintain an impossible workpace. His customers will suffer and he will be placed in a state of contant and unending conflict with his management team. The problem is [I]not[/I] that the "study" might be inaccurate. The problem is UPS's outright[B] refusal[/B] to correct it. [/QUOTE]
