I use to say that about a lot of the things I have read here. However, I have learned that overtime the piles of crap make their way thru all the buildings. Eventually you will here about it.
Here is a good one. we got between 18" and 36" of snow in my center depending on area. Top 5 snow falls. Manager in our building was mystified as to why the backs went way up the following day. I guess sitting in an office looking at a screen you don't realize what its like on the front lines.

99.9% of drivers are excellent service providers. But every building has at least one dumb truck driver that somehow qualifiedWe are just dumb truck drivers

Either way he was fixated on one thing. Blaming it on anybody else but himself is a waste of time. Should always be scanning

Because they're usually the culprits.

The front lines? What are you doing deliveries in Bastogne on Christmas 1944?

99.9% of management is incompetent. But every building has at least one good management person that somehow qualified.
I say in jest of course.

I have never looked at my speed while backing... too busy with my sandwich in hand and diad in the other checking my next 5 stops. 3 point turns with your knees are tricky business

He slid in the slush, he wasn't blaming anyone else. Managers who have little to no experience driving think accidents can always be avoided, and the driver was always doing something wrong...so blame them immediately. "Everything we do has an element of risk". How do you know he was not scanning? Go analyze some metrics or quiz someone on DOKs.
I have completely lost control of a package car going 3MPH...when on ice. Some accidents happen no mater how careful you drive even when using the methods.
Sometimes driving on slush is like driving on ball bearings. It packs into the treads and you drive slower but do not have complete control.
