[QUOTE="Backlasher, post: 973209, member: 6276"] The COMPANY gets paid " Good $ " to manage routes and have them traced correctly. It's the "WHOLE" purpose of having E.D.D. We are supposed to be able to mindlessly follow "planned day". E.D.D. 's purpose was to take the process of remembering stops, the looping of stops away from the driver and make us more efficiant at production !!! L.O.L All it as done is free'd us from memorizing the addresses and how many pieces each stop should have. Isn't our "trace" a big reason why drivers are now getting 170+ stops and 20+ pick-ups in a planned day in contrast to before E.D.D. when they were running 80 stops !!! So, why isn't the trace being, well, "traced out". They want us to up our game, but they get paid good also and have good bonus so why not some of the time spent on badgering drivers for whatever the cause, they put that time and effort into "tracing" and checking times to insure there are no missed commercial and no over lapping pick-up schedules !! Oh, "drivers get paid good $" 2 do that is what I hear. Well, so do they!! and they set up the trace, not us drivers. Oh, what, there is a logistics answer 2 this. To much accountability on drivers running blind and not enough on how dispatch is managed. I've seen routes were the pick-up schedule was a train wreak and they admitt that it's set up in hopes that some are not having a pick up or very light pick-up but then next you know, all pick-ups are heavy and you are late on compliance and businesses closeing as u pull in the drive. I can't put all the blame on a driver cause I know better. We need to focus on our job and doing it safely, they need to focus on managing a route to work realistically and to insure that we keep our customers happy, even if it cost more $ . Saving $ just to loss an account is not saving $, it's loosing $, and you can take that to the BANK !! [/QUOTE]
