Back in the 80's, we had a PCM with an road supervisor in our center. He had a beach ball, and explained that from this day forward, every morning, he would make the driver hold it aloft that ran the most over allowed the day before. This was to signify that the driver in question had "dropped the ball" because they had been the most over allowed on the morning operations report. Just so happened, he handed it to me. I immediately walked into the center manager's office, opened his door and told him I wasn't going to hold any fricking beach ball at any AM meeting. I tossed the ball to him and walked to my PC. Last time I saw that ball. Last I heard, that on road supervisor worked in Atlanta. Maybe he took the ball with him.
