[QUOTE="dudebro, post: 235958, member: 11234"] Tooner, thanks. I wish I could help you from 400 mi away but there are just too many possible variables. The size of the package car wouldn't matter much because you're supposed to be working out of your 30 inch selection area a majority of the time, so the number of trips into the vehicle to push the packages forward would amount to a few minutes at most. It WOULD change, but not much. You did lose about 0.5 hours on the package allowance, but you should have been starting to beat the old recording allowance as the packages got smarter (technically). Have send agains increased a lot? Indirects? Was there a mail room on your route that isn't there anymore? Some other variance? Did you stop picking up 400 smalls from an account? Do you still walk at a pace of 2 30 inch paces per second? (a mile every 20 minutes? Brisk, I know) Without knowing your center I just can't pinpoint it. Was the route recently time studied and do you still see the observer to ask him? It may truly need a restudy. The good observers can pinpoint where in the package cycle you beat the allowance and where you don't, and this could help you identify any methods you've gotten away from, if any. I wish I could help better than a few shots in the dark, but I hope I helped a little... [/QUOTE]
