[QUOTE="soberups, post: 800882, member: 14668"] Apparently our center failed some audit or neglected to properly file some meaningless paperwork last year, and to correct that oversight it was necessary this morning for the entire work group to sit thru a 5-minute PCM on....and I swear to God I'm not making this up...."Heat Stroke Awareness". Thats right...75 drivers standing there for 5 minutes and listening to a "safety committee" member lecture us about the warning signs of heat exhaustion and the need to stay hydrated on hot days. Its January. Its 39 degrees and pouring rain outside. The fog from our breath was visible in the unheated shop where we have our PCM's and everyone was wearing coats and gloves and stocking hats as we listened to this drivel. It frightens me that we are actually paying a salary to the genius who would (a) take the time to audit which lectures our center was given [I]last year[/I] and (b) decide that paying 75 drivers for 5 minutes apiece at the overtime rate to listen to a heatstroke lecture [I]in January[/I] is a prudent fiscal decision.
