[QUOTE="JustTired, post: 283430, member: 10234"] If you have EDD, then they know who is heavy and light before anyone leaves the building. The problem is that the standards are so screwed up that what is heavy and what they think is heavy are two different things. If a driver goes out with what the company considers to be a 9 hr day, and it takes him 10 hrs every day, then why isn't the dispatch adjusted accordingly? Maybe they think that this will be the day that he/she "brings it home". Everybody knows the standards are screwed up and they don't mean anything anyway. The problem is that we are dispatched by those standards. Until someone realizes that dispatching by those numbers is bogus, there will continue to be driver meets and pkg cars running all over the place at great expense. Of course the solution would be to get the standards back to reasonable (and possibly attainable) levels and hire the correct amount of drivers to provide the service the customer is paying for. I don't see either one happening in the near future. So I'll just sit back and watch my bank account swell. [/QUOTE]
