Unsafe driving

[UpstateNYUPSer(Ret)]

Most streets with 20 mph speed limit its impossible to drive as fast as 60. Especially in a lumbering package car.

As I said, I read the concern----I was not able to read the pages that were stapled to the concern, which I assume were the Telematics data and other supporting documentation. My center manager had asked me in for a chat unrelated to work and I happened to see the concern laying on his desk. It's not as though I get off road and rummage through my on-car and center manager's desks.

We all know customers exaggerate when they call in and, as was mentioned above, this is one area where Telematics is on our side. The pkg cars do sound as though they are going faster than they are. I have several speeding concerns thrown out because Telematics clearly showed that I was well under the speed limit. However, we have had many concerns supported by Telematics.

It was still a privileged document.

You never drove one of the new workhorses. Those things can giddy up!

My new freightliner leaves the workhorses in the dust. When I was a cover driver I drove one of those new workhorse 700s for about 6 months and it was quick, but my new freightliner 800...damn.

I agree it should be but anything laying around is fair game. Kind of like the safe driving awards that should be awarded, instead are being used for doodling, and math problems, seen it.

As I said, it wasn't like I was rummaging through his desk drawers. It was laying right out in the open, almost as if he wanted me to read it.

Laying around on the centers counter is one thing. Laying on a center manager's desk in his office is another. Being asked into the office isn't a green light to peruse what might be sitting on it. UpState should hope the driver under review doesn't find out he's been talking about his personal business in the schoolyard.

The year I worked preload/porter, I saw a lot of stuff I shouldn't have seen.

Kept it all to myself, however.

And nowhere did he give a drivers name, nor would he. If I can see it, I am reading it, I dont care where its laying. This is more of a lesson, if you are in management, you need to clean off your desk, than another driver shouldnt read stuff laying on desk. I also read the talking points for Orion, laying on a desk while I was getting yelled at, heck I had to do something! Its human nature to get the edge.

In retrospect, I have to wonder, Dave, if the concern was called in on you. Possibly your center manager wanted you to see it before it was swept under the rug.

Hmmmm?

Oh, I agree. Nosiness is human nature.

I overheard some conference calls that would have curled your toenails.

Still kept them to myself.

center manager's will sometimes leave things sitting out because they want them to be seen.

Eddie Drive is not on my area.

Nice try, thanks for playing.

 

[VonDutch]

Yawn.

Wow. Being on the high school debate team really paid off for you.

 

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

Yawn.

You should get some more sleep. Might help with that yawning.

...much the same as sleeping with the swim team paid off for you...
