[QUOTE="Leftinbuilding, post: 1082561, member: 5023"] I, your questions are entirely too simplistic. "Who told you this?", "who instructed you to do that"? In my 36 years I had[I] at least[/I] 74 different District Mgrs, Division Mgrs, Center Mgrs and on car supes. If I included all the preload supes, local sort supes, safety supes, IE, plant engineering, HR, BD, district staff, and the auditors from other centers, it would number in the thousands. And [I]EVERY[/I] one of them has their own personal "hot button". So to expect someone to nail down a specific time and place they were told to do a certain thing a certain way is ludicrous. It is simply the [I]culture[/I] at UPS that demands the occasional compromise in safety. No doubt, every driver here has at some point, at the end of a ride along, been told they were driving/walking too slow. Just a general statement, without regard to conditions at a particular time. So we are conditioned to maybe move a little faster than prudent at times. [I]IT'S THE CULTURE[/I]!! I could go on forever but somehow I don't believe you really care to dismiss your rose colored view and face reality, so I will stop. [/QUOTE]
