I did not say that. I said it could. In one example, it did not make a bit of difference, and in the other, it did some. It all depends on what you are measuring.

When you take your lunch at the building, you have returned to building, but you do not punch return to building until you have finished your lunch, otherwise it will screw up the computers.

The only times I took lunch at the end of the day was either to make service, to get in on routes I did not know before it got too dark, or if I would be really late and had a ton of pickup pieces or a lot of air. In most of these, I would take at least 15 minutes of lunch during the regular period, then finish lunch back at the building.

Sometimes if the wife was working late I would leave the center and meet her for supper somewhere, then bring back my diad.

Bottom line, yeah in some cases skipping your lunch during the day might affect your Sporh, but in many it wont.

But as a practical matter, if you dont give a rat's behind about your Sporh or over/under, its a non issue.

Your lunch hour is not calculated in your SPORH.

SPORH = # of del / on road time

On road time does not include lunch nor does it include am or pm time.

It doesn't matter when you take the lunch, beginning of the day, middle of the day, nor end of the day. It has no effect on SPORH.

If you punch out for lunch that time is taken out of your on road time, which means if you work during that hour, your SPORH will be very high, but if you stop for an hour, your SPORH will be lower.

I'm not sure that cleared up anything.:happy-very:


I was wrong earlier

It should be...

SPORH = # of del + PU / On road time

-------------------------

For example if you worked exactly 9.5 and had a 10 min. am and 10 min. pm time...

150 del + 20 PU = 170 total

On road time = 9.17 hrs. (9.5 minus 20 minutes (.33) combined am and pm time)

170 / 9.17 = 18.54 SPORH

--------------------------

On road time starts when you leave the building and ends when you return to the building.

If you take your lunch when you return to the building, it doesn't matter if you put the return to building time in before or after the lunch.

The lunch is unpaid time and is not calculated in anywhere.

I hope that helps.

Ok, you said it could. And it can. And you are right. As I said before, in a consolidated rte it has less effect.


I am sorry if I offended you with my not giving a rats :censored2:. And again, if I was on a bidded rte it would be different. I'm not. It is what it is and I don't compare myself to others. There is no point in it. I don't know all the rtes as well as the regular drivers. I don't know all the shortcuts, like calling customers to p/u their pkgs. If you can't understand that then maybe I was wrong about you. :sad-little:

I have never seen someone so wrong about something on a message board be told by this many people that they have no idea what the hell they are talking about, yet still continue to pretend they aren't an idiot.

Owned an infinite number of times in this thread and is still here..... what a mystery.

It does not matter on the route. 10 stops or 150. If you run trace and take your lunch during the day, you will run a certain number of stops per hour. It is only when you have to break off to make service on something, then come back to where you broke off that it will begin to start affecting your Sporh. And then only the drive time to and back.

IT could have a larger affect on a consolidated run that is getting 22 Sporh having to break off and run 10 miles out of his way, then back another 10 miles to pick the route back up again. It would affect him more than a backwoods driver only delivering 12 Sporh and covering the same type of break off from his route.

They are both female. The one that is bent over the water has her ample chest on her knees, whereas dannyboy's ample ..........well the chin would never ever get that close to the knees.

Nice relaxing photo. Would love a week away from this darned cold and just relax.

It would affect him more than a backwoods driver only delivering 12 Sporh and covering the same type of break off from his route.

Let me explain this so that everybody understands.

Two drivers two routes

1 driver working 9 hours with a Sporh of 22
2 driver working 9 hours wth a Sporh of 12

Both have a 20 mile round trip break off. Say at 30 MPH. So the drive time is 40 minutes. So each of the drivers worked 9.67 hours with the same stops. Driver 1 has 198 stops and he drops to a 20.5. Driver 2 has 108 stops and he drops to a Sporn of 11.2

So the driver with the more extended area was affected .8 while the driver that ran the condensed area dropped 1.5 stops per hour, almost twice as much.

Does that help?

Old is an attitude. Give me a week, and I will still out deliver the best. Just make sure the package car is equiped with a wheel chair ramp.

The problem with that is you are looking for me behind you. The reason you cant see me is not that you left me behind, its that Im done.
