[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 89042, member: 484"] First off beating the standards where you are might be true. But your little corner of the world is not a true representation of the real world. I have had no problem beating my standards for the last 25 years, and retired that way. But since we as a company decided to cut allowances, the standards for my route have changed considerably. What used to be a good day and beat the standards by 25-35 minutes, now running the same SPORH and packages etc will get you beat by a half hour or more. Now does that mean the driver is hanging out there an hour more than he should? Nope, some computer nerd somewhere decided to change the allowances that someone spent a lot of time getting real hard data to give real values to. So while it is a worth while benchmark to judge one day against the next, as far as it being a legitimate judgment of how one works or if one meets the daily requirements, it is sadly lacking. Even management will admit to the problems that lie within the system. And the union/company contract committee have addressed the problem in the contract. So it has nothing to do with pride, but more the measuring of a days work. d [/QUOTE]
