[QUOTE="soberups, post: 401301, member: 14668"] There is no hard and fast rule other than common sense and reasonable people sitting down and being logical instead of being petty jerks and tyrants. I have heard the term "one mile" thrown about as a general guideline, but there isnt anything in the contract. I broke trace almost 2 miles the other day to go to a dentist appointment. My dentist is on my route; I schedule my appointments for lunch hours instead of taking days off or calling in sick, which makes life a lot easier for my supervisor; sometimes that means I have to drive a couple of extra miles to make it all work. 3 extra miles vs. a staffing problem, service issues and an untrained cover driver on my route? Its a no-brainer. Common sense wins again. [/QUOTE]
