[QUOTE="satellitedriver, post: 163275, member: 1664"] Have preload memorize load charts and read both labels before placing pkgs in a car. Trust and listen to a driver when they tell you this is the wrong way to load their route (given that the driver really cares and isn't just throwing work at their fellow drivers). Micromanagement and one size fits all planning is a plan to fail. Give center managers the power to manage their center.Each and every one has problems that can only be dealt with on a local level. It is like giving everyone the same size stretch uniform and saying "Now make it fit". The worst part I see is the dumbing down of the system and taking the human brain out of the equation. Your question was "How do we fix it?" That is the wrong question. "Why did we implement a flawed system nationwide without proper planning and research?" PAS and EDD could be a great tool if properly used, but not as a dogmatic rule. I personally run my route in the most efficient way I can and ignore the trace. On any given day, I can defend my reasoning for running the route the way I did. Given time the bugs will be worked out, but in the mean time do not treat drivers like they know less than they do.
