I was just wondering how much $$$ the dealership is making on the rare occasion that a road tech uses the company van and fuel for personal business or when they aren't where they are supposed to be or when their first stop in the morning is the coffee shop or when they drive 10 miles out of the way to go to their favorite restaurant for lunch.
I know of 2 dealerships that installed GPS; one on their vans and the other on their delivery truck. In one case a third of the road techs either quit or were fired and in the other case they ended up firing their driver, selling the delivery truck and hiring out the deliveries because it was cheaper to hire it out than it was to do it in house. Sad commentary......
It's a two way street as long as both parties are honest and not trying to take advantage of the other.
