It's funny, you say you're not that 1030 bozo, but you have the same 3rd grade insults he used. Hmmmmmm

My old buddy 1030 anymore sent me a pic of himself driving his corvette.

Where can I get one of those hats?

Actually, my ability to rate an experience I witnessed and judge others incorrect perception of it actually went up after I left IE for operations. But I appreciate the compliment.

Take the experience I witnessed of a most important stop PCM once. There last party of the PCM was basically your family wants you to make it to your last stop safely.
One of the drivers went OFF, ranting about how management was "talking about my family. Don't talk about my family!!".
That's an employee that would say he had a negative experience with management disrespecting his family. And even though I was no longer in IE, I feel comfortable grading his perception of that life experience as total BS.

Although, in the fairness of hindsight I do acknowledge we were saying your family wants you to come home safely at the end of the day, and in the case of that particular a-hole we might have been wrong.

But that type of willful miss interpretation of management actions and statements by hourlies happens every day in just about every UPS operation.

You keep driving down memory lane in the same direction.

doing 50 stops out of a p50, taking an hour lunch miles off route, and calling it a day after 8 hours?

Yeah it's not 1990.


Hour lunch hmmm seems to be exactly what we are contractually allowed to take.

Miles off route.....is that the closest available spot?

Become a Shriner?

 

[TearsInRain]

The sad part is that I doubt you could do those 50 stops, work through your lunch, and still bring it in under 8.

maybe if i was in montana?

See @TearsInRain, this is what an IE guy with operations experience sounds like.

when you're in IE, you'll find that having ops experience really means dick to the ops, when what they really want you to be is just a good IE

His head is too fat for that hat ... and it’s not from over abundance of brains.

Have to be part of the benevolent order of the mouse. He wasn't quite moose status if you know what I mean.

2 miles from the hub.

I mean come on

A bit of an exaggeration as those days are long gone. I'd say early 80's is when mgt. really started hammering with the over/allowed. And understandable because guys were driving 2 miles to go to lunch and going home to watch the 4:30 movie. As long as you delivered everything you were good. But long gone.

Of course. It's a one way street. What would you do?

 

[BigUnionGuy]

Real or perceived? The average employee perceives many more negative experiences with management than they actually experience.

Which one.... do you think they will carry with them, throughout their career ?

Real or perceived ? (and the resulting effect)

Perceived of course. That is human nature.

Having been in both worlds, I can agree with this sentiment.

Now, as to what constitutes a good IE, that is an entire discussion unto itself. Unfortunately for the IE, that definition is often defined differently by the IE
manager than it is by the operations he/she serves.
