[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 822352, member: 927"] I have posted over and over again that the dispatch process is owned by the operator. That its the center team that is responsible for putting the right number of drivers on road each day, but IE (among others) will hold them accountable. So, for the sake of this argument, lets assume that you are right. Lets assume that IE is forcing the operator to put the wrong number of cars on road. We either have a very strong and powerful I.E. department, or a super weak operations group. Lets look at the Org Chart.... The Center Manager Reports to the Division Manager. The Division Manager Reports to the Ops Manager. Ops Manager reports to the District Manager. You are saying that the I.E. manager is dictating to these multiple levels of management what to do??? Making them do what they do not want to do? That the Ops Manager who is ultimately responsible for cost and service can't override him / her? Even though the Ops Manager is generally of a higher grade? Many were ex district managers..... I guess none of them have the guts to take on the big, bad, I.E. department? (or maybe its easier to blame someone else.) Again, find me a Division Manager or Ops Manager who says the wrong number of cars are on the road.... [/QUOTE]
