[QUOTE="Indecisi0n, post: 1163951, member: 35289"] This all sounds fine and dandy but the truth is this is only going to hurt you. Say you are doing 140 with pickups and getting in at 7:30-8:00PM. Now say you do these tweaks and discover by rearranging work and changing the way you run the route you can now do 140 + pickups and be done at 6:30PM. Saving an hours time. Now your numbers look good, you get to go home earlier and now you feel good. How long do you think that is going to last? Dispatch will see you are doing 140 and being done by 6:30PM. They see this as an opportunity to give you another 20 stops from a cut route. So now instead of doing 140 you're doing 160. Thats how you are rewarded for your hardwork. I am simply dumbfounded that drivers can not grasp that concept. [/QUOTE]
