    Margeret, whether you realize it or not, or whether you meant to do so or not, you drew first blood here. You stated that you didn't mean any insult, and not knowing you from the lady in the lake I have little choice but to accept that. I can give the benefit of the doubt there.

    But notarps got it exactly right with his analogy regarding the office cubicles. You have to understand that this is a forum BY and FOR truckers. Drivers rule the roost here, and an insult where we live, whether it was real or simply perceived, will bring a firestorm of hostility, as you may have noticed. But of course the office personnel are welcome to post here.

    Perhaps a better way to go about what you had apparently intended to do was to identify yourself and simply ask, "Why do some drivers' logs so unreadable"? I can tell you this much. If an officer of the law were to inspect a driver and his recent logs were in the condition you describe, that driver would be in a world of trouble.

    So YOU ARE THE ONE giving us log AUDITORS a bad name?? What are you talking about? I don't understand your language at all! I mean I have been doing logs for 18 freaken years and the print out of the logs are the best thing ever:biggrin_25510:

    I think you are one of the witchy log auditors and the one that gives us a bad name! If you are or was my employee I would tell you "GOODBYE!".
    Leave these poor guys alone, the last thing we want them doing is looking at freaken porn! They don't need coming to the log dept all woodied up more than what they already are:biggrin_25513:

    The computer generated logs helps the drivers! Yes they still need to enter their information, but what the hell do you mean you would rather read their handwritting. Half of them you can't read!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    The computer logs are the bomd! I would rather enter all the information than figure out what they are writting!!!!!!!!!

    GEt over it! Log auditor/Manager to log auditor you need an attitude adjustement!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yeah pay her more to be a bigger witch! I DON'T THINK SO! I would be greatfull to have legal logs!!!!! THATS THE MAXIMUM I ASK FOR! I then ask for the minor things. Duty status is very important, although it is not the worst you drivers could do! The computer logs are the best logs! Sorry for you who think they are hard to read. I THINK YOU NEED TO DISCUSS WITH ME THE ISSUE YOU HAVE, BECAUSE YOU NEED TO GET A GRIP! I have more years under your belt I assume since you have NO FREAKEN CLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Lets make sure this is clear, I am talking about the so called "log auditor" not Whispers! I am backing Whispers up!

    Yeah exactly! You do not deal with the drivers! You punch in the numbers. I manage 7 people to do this daily and if anyone of them talked like you do today I would literallly kick you off my team. Let me tell you a little story!

    Truck drivers are who is allowing you to make a pay check! You need to be helpfull to these truck drivers. Coming off like a little prissy brat needs to go away! When you have a company of truck drivers and you have say 100 drivers (I deal with 2500) you will have different personalities. What you as a "human being/officer personel") must do is be helpfull in training the drivers.If you have not clue in how to train the drivers, maybe you should not speak like you did originally! The training is the hardest part, entering the data is not the hardest part! I would say you are probably from a few companies I know about and I don't respect your company. The companies who use you are very stupid not to do it themselves! The part you do is so simple !!!!!!!! I can do it with my eyes closed! I can teach you more than you ever knew in your life time! So don't come here on my board and talk down to these guys!
    If you want to stick around then all is good but understand you will not talk down about drivers and logs, you will help me train them in doing the right thing. Dogging them will not help me in my goal of life!

    So you might know! The goal of my life is to have every driver (@ least 70 %) understand every log regulation there is, including but not limiting split breaking. They must know how to do this!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Your attitude is the one that sucks!!!!!!!!!!!! Really, I am a log auditor and you have the worst attitude! I did not approach this board in that manner and I dont think you made yourself very welcome with your approach!

    Can anyone tell I am really ticked off at this attitude! I am sure you all expected it! :biggrin_25516:

    Cybergal! It's all a matter of training the drivers! If a drivers needs a little guidance and needs to be told to do something different you explain why, how & why it makes the auditors job easier so the driver has a better understanding of why you are asking them to do this or that!
    The point of logs is to make sure you are legal at all times! If I had a legal driver and he was using the exit # all the time, then I would be glad to hand them over to the internal dot audit rather a driver who was running illegal and using the city & state. DOT when doing an internal audit main conern is the company is not lettting them run illegal~!!!!!!!!!! The other stuff, yes we can/could get into trouble with , but that petty mile marker stuff is way off line!
    She is being way to picky! I am sure to know her!!!!!!!!!! She is probably the one hiding the whiskey in the desk:biggrin_2559:
