[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 465666, member: 484"] Taking your lunch when you get back to the building does not affect your on road time. As long as you actually take lunch, it does not matter when you take it as it has no bearing on on road time. Now if you dont take all your lunch, yes it will affect the production. As far as running, yes it does affect the on road time, but only if you do not lose it by not following other methods. I have seen people running that actually lose time once they get back to the car. But if you have a smooth car routine, then running to and from the delivery will shave time off the delivery day. This is unsafe and is officially frowned upon by management, but off the record, I have yet to ever see a sup use discipline against a driver for running. Other things yes, but not running, of speeding either. Unless you start picking up tickets. But it is my opinion after watching drivers over the last three plus decades, the humpers and runners hit a wall after about 10 years. And when that happens, its not pretty. Kinda like having a sprinter running a marathon. Not gonna finish the race. UPS is a long endurance marathon, not a 100 yard dash. Better to have a bit left after 35 years than to burn out after 15. d [/QUOTE]
