[QUOTE="Been In Brown Too Long, post: 6025714, member: 32249"] My comment about tightening up management meant for the CEO and VPs to be on top of the management directly below themselves in regards to the stupid stuff they do to make certain numbers look good. I, like you, am blaming the CEO and VPs for their blindness to the situation. Say what you want, but it is the dumb sup that is sending home a preloader that makes $15/hr and is loading 3 package cars to have three separate drivers finish loading those trucks at OT rate of $67/hr simply to make the preload number look better. I guarantee you that decision isn't coming from the CEO or a VP and most certainly not Wall Street itself. I'm sure the VPs are saying, improve your preload numbers, but I doubt they say to do it by paying drivers OT to fix preload numbers. When I brought it up decades back how stupid this practice is, I was told by an on road that it was easier to cover it up and say a driver was over allowed vs. not fixing the preload numbers and getting reamed by the District Manager. Tightening up for me meant to take off the blinders and be on top of stupid stuff like this. If Wall Street was witnessing firsthand things like this that happen all the time, and this is just one example, they'd lose their minds. [/QUOTE]
