[QUOTE="UnconTROLLed, post: 786641, member: 18708"] Find out what area you'll be delivering and get lost in there a few times. That's my first tip. Secondly, I Disagree about "keeping the wheels moving" just for the sake of it! Unless you already know the area you're delivering EXTREMELY WELL, in that case you shouldn't "spin" if you don't have to. Look at the map, take a few minutes. Even if it's after every stop. Especially housecalls , you need to make a plan and stick to it. Figure out your next 5-10 stops on the map. After your first stop, take another look at the map for a refresher on your internal compass if you need to. Eventually, it'll all come together and you'll only be glancing at the map for a plan, instead of stop-for-stop. That 2-3 minutes of planning initially, will save you 20 minutes driving, backing, turning around missing your stops. Don't just drive aimlessly, make a plan and stick to it and try not to drive by stops, or take wrong turns. [/QUOTE]
