NTDC | The Chairman's Challenge - FedEx
i don't run-gun anymore because i want to keep my driving record CLEAN... and having an accident or on-the-job injury in this sector will equal to being thrown out to the curb.
so after all those years of no accidents, someone approached me to try it out
i looked at my ID and i replied, "I'm not even a FedEx Employee" i don't get the same bennies as a Ground package handler...
& what good it will do if i compete? this isn't a career ~ it's a dead-end job w/ no major bennies

The Chairman's Challenge
I was looking at the driving obstacle course layouts & i remembered doing this as part of my hiring process back in the day when HD cared about quality drivers. We were told if we hit a cone, we would be DQ'ed from driving for the temp agency
also, i was instructed w/ the 5 seeing habits from Smith: Home no relation to the CEO
All Good Kids Like Milk is a good system to remember & has helped me stay accident free over the years, both in the stepvan & in my personal car
of course, there's no more formal training for HD that i've seen in the past few years (maybe a 1-2 day training w/ the PPAD, which isn't enough for some box monkeys).
----------------------------------------------------------------
I'm also wondering if some terminals are still doing that clone-version of the 5 seeing habits. called S.A.friend.E. still? (Survey-Adjust-Forecast-Execute)
for now, just give me my route # and vehicle # for the day and let me be...
