[QUOTE="HomeDelivery, post: 992241, member: 33696"] Agrees, but as a [B]swing/cover driver[/B] who has a new area to start [B]blind[/B] every week, it gets old that the regular driver didn't maximize his service area. ---------------------------------------------- I know there are target zones in our program to prioritize what areas to cover 1st... from what i recall, the regular driver can prioritize up to 10 zones within his service area. You think they would maximize their efficiency because we don't get paid by the hour... :disappointed: I'll talk to the driver last week of why doesn't he re-organize his area so it can be done in the fastest time; and he didn't know that you can do that.:zombismiley: others that I ask about doesn't follow trace as well. "the turn-by-turns are stupid sometimes..." well, talk with your dispatcher & they can modify your area! and I like how they won't have certain "area knowledge" info for you, like gate codes, where to dock at certain business stops, customer's preferred DR area, etc... -------------------------------------------------- PS: bbsam said they're going to implement something similar over there by mid-July... waiting to see how that goes. would love your input on that in case I want to branch out to that division (some pay by-the-piece on top of by-the-stop?)
