[QUOTE="curiousbrain, post: 989649, member: 31608"] I'm not disagreeing with you, but given what I put in bold in the quote ... aren't you essentially asking Operations people to put their jobs on the line to make up for the shortcomings of computer/IE plans? That would be great, in theory; except that, when Operations does change the plan, the PkgPlan doesn't change, and you still missed what your goal was - because, maybe, you added a route. So, yes, Operations adjusted to changing conditions and put in place a better plan, but that, by necessity, adjusts the cost per package delivered, which is a big problem, and now means you have to spend the next five hours justifying your job. I think that, in the spirit of keeping this somewhat contained, you are operating with a level of knowledge that I am not; it is possible (if not presumable) that I am beating my head against a wall that I don't understand or even know exists, due to ignorance on my own part. I do appreciate the insight, though. [/QUOTE]
