This is going to sound crazy but DRA is working for me. In the past we all would take our regular stops and I can tell you that the stop counts were'nt close to being fair. I would take 65-70 P2 when the crr next to me took 45-50. This has been going on for years and finally the counts due to DRA are evened out . Being at the apex of my route my stop count has gone down but the area coverage has gotten larger. It takes a little getting used to but now the guys who took less stops before are now hemming and hawwing to just how busy their area got.
The fact that we are getting out of the building later makes DRA work in my favor, seems DRA thinks because I help out on the AM sort my P1 and P2's have been cut to about a third. So do I think they'll ever go back to the old way? Not a chance. They basically have the right idea but making the routes smaller (stop count) but its the guys at the end of the loop who;s getting killed (part timers,late starters,...etc). It's still too early to discount this new and efficient way of delivering. I'm for one is interested in what kind of improvements they have in the future.
