[QUOTE="oldngray, post: 1706338, member: 45230"] A fair time study is "supposed" to look at road conditions but that isn't real life. For example if the speed limit on a street is 35 then that will be your allowance. It doesn't matter if you can never go that fast because of traffic. The time allowance per piece has steadily been dropping also making the number much worse on bulk city routes. Miles are your friend since that is where the allowances are loosest. IE will definitely massage the numbers to get the result they want because I saw it happen more than once. They all get issued that magic pen that can change the numbers with one stroke. [/QUOTE]
