This also encourages faking a lunch so you can keep on delivering and not have SOS lates because of the necessity of inefficient routing or "doubling back" as you call it. I always love it when managers come down on you for not making goals, then slam you if you don't take enough "break" just so you can get done, or OLCC you for coming in late.
