[QUOTE="soberups, post: 831510, member: 14668"] My sup is a real stickler for the method of pulling your next few deliveries forward into the 30-60" selection area in order to minimize time spent in the back. Will this method be changed to reflect the fact that ORIAN will be continuously updating and adjusting your delivery order? Or will we be expected to continously shuffle those package around every time ORIAN changes its mind about what our next stop will be? From what I have read about ORIAN I can see how, theoretically at least, the system could be a benefit for the driver who is delivering an area that he is unfamiliar with. My concerns about ORIAN have nothing to do with the system itself, and everthing to do with the stupid and desperate lengths that our management teams are likely to go to in order to generate the metrics and meet the quotas that Corporate will be demanding when the system is implemented. I am reminded of a famous quote from a soldier during the Viet Nam war..."we had to destroy the village in order to save it." Something tells we we are going to be destroying some villages in order to save a mile and show up as 80% on an ORIAN report. I hope I am wrong. I dont think I will be. [/QUOTE]
