[QUOTE="upsgrunt, post: 286768, member: 9295"] My question is: isn't there any accountability in IE? Shouldn't they lose their jobs for poor performance? When volume is below what is projected they have no problem cutting routes, but when it is the other way they do nothing but let the chips fall where they may. If we drivers screwed up as much as IE did there would be a lot less of us if you get my drift. Hell, even a weather person has a better forecast success percentage than our IE. If UPS wants to save money so bad fire the bean counters and let the centers run themselves. To use several quotes from other members on this site: Tieguy- "if you have good people working for you, give them what they need and get the hell out of the way", and someone who said "We don't need new bosses, but rather new leaders". I have been around long enough to know that UPS trusts no one, but how long is it to realize that maybe we can't trust IE? I mean they will pitch and pass any idea they can dream up to convince corporate that it will save money when it rarely does. To keep their jobs, they just keep raising the bar for the people WHO ACTUALLY HAVE TO DO THE WORK! The real money savings would be to fire them, pocket the difference and let the center leaders decide what works and doesn't. Sorry---where's the Tylenol? [/QUOTE]
