[QUOTE="soberups, post: 594690, member: 14668"] Actually, most of it [I]is [/I]accurate. Is there a time allowance for scraping ice off of windshields, driving on snow or putting on tire chains? No. Is extra time allowed for making 8 pt turnarounds without power steering in cul-de-sacs 40 times a day when the route got studied in a P-7 that could make a U-turn? No. Is extra time allowed on a hilly route to compensate for the fact that a P-8 cant pull a hill faster than 15 MPH...when the route was studied in a P-7 that can do the same hill at 40MPH? No. Is there any time allowed for putting the package in a DR bag to keep it dry? No. Is extra time allowed for sorting and package selection when some dipstick DM decides to break up a route 10 min before start time, causing preload to fling 30 random stops in a pile on the floor of your truck? No. The time allowances are based upon a fantasy world of perfect conditions. They are accurate if, and only if, those conditions actually exist. In the [I]real[/I] world...they dont. [/QUOTE]
