I have off Friday and the wife has to work.

Nice! You're probably one of those guys who calls in when it's raining too hard.
Irregardless I wouldn't "bang in" knowing that my co-workers would get screwed as a result.
Anybody who bangs out gets a tip o' the cap from me. Most likely they've gotten the "We need everyone PCM" so it takes a pair to call out . Kudos. I'll do an extra 20

Its just regardless ... irregardless is redundant.
"Ir" and "less" mean the same thing.
Sorry ... I just had to.
Even though I am not sitting on a privy.

As far as reporting known closures; if you do that all you accomplish is to allow the company to justify cutting even more routes, which will result in even more service failures. The better choice is to keep your mouth shut about the closures and let them get loaded into the car and counted as a stop. Once you leave the building you can scan them as "closed holiday" in about 1/8 of the time it would take you to actually drive around and deliver them, so instead of having 14 or 15 hours worth of stops on the car you might only have 12 or 13 and at least a fighting chance of getting them done. Why be honest with an entity (IE) who is going to intentionally set you up to fail anyway? Their only goal is to eliminate routes, whereas your goal is to actually make service on the packages. If you have to to lie in order to trick and manipulate them into dispatching a marginally adequate number of routes, then so be it. The end justifies the means.

Over also has to work Friday---maybe the wives can go shopping together.
Sheeting known closures on road lowers your NDPPH. Why would you want to work around those packages if you don't have to?
