What's the best way to let my driver's management know he's awesome?

[jaker]

Isn't it sad the way this company is , we can't even get compliments and if we do get one at our hub they put the concern paper on the door and that's it Nobody says anything to you about it

OP just leave a note saying thank you or catch him at the door with a drink when you can

Hand him a gift card to a nice restaurant. That would send the message.

@kene1024, first off, get your name and e-mail out of your post. That's a no-no here.

It's because down here in the real world where everyone doesn't throw plastic bottles in the recycle bin, our management team, along with drivers, are overworked and DGAF anymore about the details. When someone gives an example about something wrong in their center, your usual retort is an example of how it should be and is in your center, as if your center has no issues, barring ORION, in which case you admit is FUBAR.

The funny thing is, the only thing Davey knows about ORION is what he reads here.

This is probably the best suggestion.

In our hub drivers are always told about a compliment that came in and are recognized during the PCM. OP should absolutely call the 1-800 number. Compliments are rare. People are more motivated to call in concerns than compliments.

Strongly disagree.

Strongly don't care.

Thanks for the tip. But I can't figure out how to edit my post. Can someone tell me how, or a moderator do it for me?

I think the gift card idea is the best one so far. Thanks everybody.

if u let management know he's awesome they will add 20 stops and 4 pickups to his route daily.

How much less could they care?

On average, 68 percent less than those who "don't give a hoot". Pretty low for sure.

Congratulations. The BOG references just went into overdrive the moment you posted this.

What is BOG?

Let the driver know directly. Every UPS center is different. Some might give recognition, some ignore and others might actually be negative to the driver. A simple thank you, cold drink or a gift card are great. I had that happen and I'll tell you that the driver will remember and appreciate that more.

When a driver has been on a route long enough, it becomes almost like a second family. You learn people's stories and they learn yours. It's one of the few things left that is good about this job that management hasn't tainted in some way.

Maybe all new UPS training materials should refer to the BOG from now on. Instead of dogs attacking and over dispatches, we can have fluffy unicorns that greet you at every stop and everyone's truck looks neat as in the hazmat videos

The RA is something most choose "not to give", so that would be higher up the ladder, since they are considering it.

Tell the driver he has nice legs in the summer
Months. Give him a water or Gatorade. In He winter offer his m a warm cup of coffee and tell him you appreciate how he works out in the cold.
