[QUOTE="BrownTexas, post: 1329242, member: 52604"] When you are in your 30 day package it is a different game. I would say GPS is your friend but only to a degree. Don't use GPS to tell you how to get there. Use it to find the stop and notice the roads you need to take to get there. It will help learn them without having to spend the time to unfold a map and look it over. Take a lunch. Even if it is only 10 minutes. You need to rest. It will allow you to think of a game plan. It doesn't count towards your time allowance. If you aren't coming in early and setting your truck up you should. It will help you save time trying to find everything once you are on road. Talk to your loader. He might have put a stop somewhere that you won't know of unless you talk to him. When you have room, set up your truck. Most of your time is going to be looking for packages, so set up 10-20 stops as you go. If you're having trouble with your area go drive around it on the weekend. Hope some of this helps. [/QUOTE]
