KPIs or incentives? Higher movement count = more bridge drivers = faster service? Less legislatively-required coffee breaks?

The longest I've ever waited for an airbridge was at LAX. We also waited over thirty minutes at one point during the taxi in as well, so maybe it was just one of those days...
