Pees in the brown Koolaid
... Now I understand why you feel you can not meet UPS's expectations, it's because you interpert the contract to mean you don't have to follow UPS's instructions, and can do as you like and UPS is powerless to prevent you from following their instructions.
This helps me out with my understanding, thank you.
There is a fundamental difference between failing to follow managements instructions and failing to live up to managements expectations.
The instructions and methods we are told to follow are pretty clear-cut and straightforward. Unless they are unsafe, refusing to follow them is for the most part not an option.
The expectations that management chooses to place upon us, on the other hand, are quite frequently unrealistic to the point of being ridiculous.
We are required to follow our managements reasonable instructions and work methods for doing the job. We are not required to fullfill managements idiotic fantasies regarding overllowed, SPORH, PPH, or other work measurments that are based more upon wishful thinking than a realistic assesssment of the job at hand.
