[QUOTE="Undertow, post: 4695453, member: 4550"] Nosing into driveways and backing out in my building repeatedly over the course of even one workday most often results in a face to face conversation with management the following morning as that not only shows up but STICKS OUT on a telematics report. Not only do the bosses see that, but it's possible even people higher than that have access to the data. It's your call, but if it were Me and it was really my delivery area and my customers and thus my and their safety potentially at stake, I'd say something now. If you don't and something bad happens, management might blame you regardless especially if they go back and look at the data accumulated up to that point and declare you should have spoken up to correct him all those times. If you're worried about being labeled a snitch by some coworkers, don't be. If this dimwit driving your truck on your route backs over some 8 year old kid, it's gonna stay with you a heck of a lot longer than any other hourly complaining behind your back or to your face that he/she thinks you ratted somebody out. I left a helper miles away from his car years ago when he simply refused to comply with putting on the seatbelt. Did I get some flak initially for it? Sure, but the sups try to find fault regardless so I didn't care. They receive the training and agree from the outset to follow the methods. They break that agreement? Then it's on them. If his methods are bothering you all day and everyday, that isn't good for your long term mental health and potentially your physical health either if he screws up at exactly the wrong time. Why should you be trapped in a conflicted state for weeks on end? Make him their problem instead of strictly just yours because he should be their problem and not yours. [/QUOTE]
