[QUOTE="just interested, post: 770600, member: 29357"] Is this a "standard procedure"? Where can a new driver find a written list of expectations for the qualification process? I've been given a mixed route with 120 - 140 stops plus pick-ups beginning at 3:30. There are morning commits; noon commits; then pickup commit times from 3:30 all the way until 7:30. Usually there are approximately 70 house deliveries. I've had to mix the house deliveries in between business stops; there is no other way to do it and still make 9.5; sometimes I have to get huge packages out of the middle of the car first thing in the morning that are house deliveries, just so I can get my business bulk off. I deliver about 330 packages total and pickup around 100-150. Oh! And I also have a morning pickup - thankfully it's never been more than 5-7 boxes and coincides with my delivering their bulk (20-45 packages) to them. Anyhow - I'm getting pressured because I'm not running the route as fast as the past experienced driver's slowest sporh. That's the only criteria I've been given. Match/beat her sporh. I am the first newly hired, no experienced person to ever attempt to run this route. Any suggestions are appreciated. [/QUOTE]
