[QUOTE="Analbumcover, post: 4393492, member: 63725"] I guess this is the new flavor of the month. Every day for the past week, our center manager lurks around the Orion computer area (which is where drivers happen to enter the building) with his productivity report in hand and casually strikes up these awkward conversations with drivers. After a few clumsy attempts at trying to be relatable, he inevitably gets to the question that's been plaguing him: "so, uh, bad day out there yesterday huh? Was there something that caused you to be [insert number] overallowed? He then compares things like sporh trends, spc, pickup compliance, total mileage etc. in an attempt to understand why these particular drivers, which Orion said would be done and back to building by 17:30, are punching out at 19:30. The younger drivers scramble to come up with some sort of flustered excuse while the veteran drivers say things along the lines of "yup, some days are worse than others." The real old timers don't even acknowledge his existence. Is this going on anywhere else? I figure it will blow over and next month they'll be harping on backing speed and space cushions. [/QUOTE]
