[QUOTE="JustTired, post: 665225, member: 10234"] While there are dispatch problems that need to be fixed, you can't fix the big one at the local level. That being (as an example) dispatching 35 drivers with 40 drivers worth of work. With all of the new technology, District pretty much knows how much work is going to each center. They knowingly dispatch less drivers than the volume dictates. There's nothing at the local level that can overcome this. All the dispatch sup can do is try to level out the dispatches as best he/she can. In the old days when those dispatches were more the work of local management, there was more of a chance of seeing someone still there until the last driver was in. They had an interest in the outcome of their work. Now that it is out of their hands.....why wait around for the inevitable outcome? You can't "fix" a dispatch plan (whether 7:30 PM or 6:30 AM) when it is out of your hands to do so. [/QUOTE]
