[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1163894, member: 14668"] Zero terminations. Zero suspension letters. I [I]have[/I] amassed a collection of warning letters over the years for broken mirrors, tree branches thru roofs, cracked windows, and the other minor and inevitable damage that occurs when a P-700 car is dispatched on a rural route that really needs a p-57 or smaller. In 29 years of having a drivers license I have never been involved in [I]any[/I] sort of traffic accident, and the [I]only[/I] moving violation I have ever gotten was 28 years ago, when I was 18 and stupid, for speeding in my '77 Plymouth Volare Roadrunner in order to show off to my girlfriend. I did get a warning letter a couple of years ago for "failure to follow methods" when I brought 28 missed stops back to the building at 9:00 at night. I had told them repeatedly throughout the day that I had no chance of getting done; they did not send help; so the stops came back. When I got the warning letter, I asked them which specific methods I had failed to follow and they were unable to tell me. The bottom line was that my center manager got his ass chewed for those missed stops and so he had to generate a warning letter in order to meet is quota and create the illusion that he was actually "doing something" about the problem. The warning letter wasnt worth the paper it was written on; it dropped off automatically after 9 months anyway; and 3 months after that the manager who wrote it got fired for stealing Oxycontin from the NDA VA packages we deliver. Karma may be a bitch, but if you play your cards right and do the right thing she can be [I]your[/I] bitch. [/QUOTE]
