[QUOTE="soberups, post: 511865, member: 14668"] Thats a great theory, but the reality is that the work measurement is chiseled in stone. It doesnt matter if its wrong, it will [I]never[/I] be corrected. For that matter, in 22 years I have [I]never[/I] heard a supervisor admit that a time study was inaccurate. Such an admission would be tantamount to blasphemy, and the offending supervisor might likely be burned at the stake for daring to speak the truth. In the real world, the driver will still be blamed for the problem and if his methods are good then management will simply make up flaws in order to perpetuate the fantasy of the fair allowance. Its sort of like issuing your carpenter a tape measure that reads 11 inches per foot instead of 12 and then blaming him when the walls fall off the house even though he followed your blueprints exactly. The whole thing is eeirly similar to George Orwell's novel [I]1984.[/I] If you torture someone long enough, you actually [I]can[/I] make them believe that you are holding up 4 fingers instead of 5.
