[QUOTE="BigBrownSanta, post: 377898, member: 11097"] Sorry, I'm not trying to trap you. LOL. I'm mostly playing devil's advocate here. Every example I gave you earlier can be used to pad miles, but you've already said they aren't padding miles. If I run air only by EDD, my miles will be higher. Why? Because the system is set up to run air all the way to the far end of my route, then I have to return to the other side of the route to start the ground deliveries. If I have businesses that are PAL'd for PM delivery, then I will have to break trace to avoid missed pieces which also runs up the miles. The same is true of ODS/OCA that have an early commit time, but I'm on the far end of my route when I get the message. I now have to increase miles to make the commit time. I could go on and on. NDA savers to businesses by 3 PM. Delivering by EDD. I won't even go into that. It's OK to pad miles if it is operationally justified, but if someone wants to take lunch at home... I think trying to nail someone for going home at lunch time is somewhat (I hope you don't get offended) weak. [/QUOTE]
