[QUOTE="FilingBluesFL, post: 1836646, member: 48124"] The days that I can, I run ORION 100%. Those are usually the routes with very few or no pickups at all. They were hard on my butt for a while, demanding to know why I was over on miles. I always answer with a question, "Well, what was my ORION percentage?" They come back with "You followed it 100%." To which I reply, "Well then it's impossible for me to have gone over on miles, when I followed your system 100%, and it's the OPTIMAL delivery order I am to follow to minimize and reduce miles. So you must have done something wrong." So then they say "Well, you're supposed to reduce miles while following ORION." "Is not the purpose of ORION to plan our day for us to run it in the optimal order?" "Yes, it is." "And what percentage did I follow ORION?" "You followed it 100%" "OK, so then I reduced miles as your system prescribed me to, so I don't know what you did wrong when I followed your system in the prescribed order 100% of the time. I worked as instructed, and followed the order your system determined I should go in to reduce miles." Drives them absolutely insane. And I love it. [/QUOTE]
