our ETL LOG will give a direction and put into play a plan. then, the flow team leader comes along and questions what you are doing, reminding you that thats not what they said to do. when explaining to the ETL why the plan they put into play isnt followed, and that the TL redirected them, the ETL reminds them that THEY are the superior, and that they should follow their words. next the TL comes back again, and this time, askes who their boss is, which is the TL, so askes why the TMs are listening to the ETL who not their boss. recycle this a few more times and you have very frustrated TMs, across various work areas (not centers, keep in mind flow is everywhere during unload)
key points:
1- the ETL plans work.
2- the TLs plans ... well ... if they are there is kind of pans out.... maybe?
3- when the ETL off that day flow doesnt come clean
4- on the ETLs solo truck, clean if not close as possible
5- TMs call out on TLs solo truck
6- ETL solo truck things are peaceful. half as many call outs.
so does anyone else deal with ETL/TL power struggles?
