[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 1302760, member: 198"] When I look at these things from a logical and unbiassed viewpoint and then read your statement I have to think that if you truly aren't running and are taking the full lunch then you shouldn't be averaging 8 hours of bonus per week and that the other weeks where you can hardly make bonus are probably more accurate. This is not to say that it doesn't make sense that the exact same work plans one way one week but differently with the same work another week. What I'm saying is that if a driver walks at a brisk pace, drives the speed limit, follows the methods, yada yada yada...then and hour of bonus per day seems like a bit of a stretch. One of the many problems that comes with bonus is the drivers that think UPS owes them bonus. When a route is "fat with allowance" (believe me it happens) the driver(s) that usually runs it gets allot of bonus. Eventually the times are adjusted based on historical data and IE tampering and that bonus disappears. Next those drivers act like spoiled little children and throw a fit because "they stole time from us" but in reality the route just had a little fat trimmed. The real mess is made by the runners and gunners because that historical data I mentioned is based on their past paid days and "production" so those route have more than a little fat trimmed. They have too much trimmed. So, now it's impossible to make bonus following the methods and bonus whores struggle to make just a little. Not none. [/QUOTE]
