[QUOTE="Fredly000, post: 76480, member: 4606"] We have one satellite with 4-5 routes at the satellite building.(1hr away) so imagine 8-10hours of drive time they are "saving" and there are still two or three P-1000's that drive that hour. There is talk of another satellite, which would cut 6-7routes out of building. and another 12-14hrs of drive time(windshield time) a day. Makes sense to me.. Only people it doesn't make sense to, are those senior drivers who have really cush routes because of all the windshield time. While I fully support my brothers and sisters, it makes total sense to me. So your either going to have a lot of people commuting to the satellites or senior drivers will re-bid, and there will be a ton of route suffling going on. That combined with the PAS EDD and DIAD 4 going into effect should make for a wonderful cluster... Eitherway I see it as effecient from a business standpoint(if they do it right, but they won't.) I ran coverage at one satellite for a few weeks once we didn't start delivering till noon, start time was 11am, which meant I was working till about 11pm yeah seriously. I know. Don't tell me.
