[QUOTE="tourists24, post: 779103, member: 11490"] I see why you think that is stupid. I agree with the whole post you have; however my point was a little different. I am among a growing list of old time pkg drivers who just dont care nearly as much as I should anymore (for just the reasons you use). I turn the brain off anytime it starts to get ridiculous in our center. My whole point is that when mgt gets it dictated to them that we must meet 85%, our on cars came to the drivers and said "let's get the routes as accurate as possible." They brought us in on the clock and let us set up our routes street by street. Using my route as an example, I went from 60-70% trace to darn near 95% or better. When they first set things up, they used some set way that had no input from anyone local (not sure how it works). It was disastrous. At least this gives a driver a fighting chance. Of course as soon as things start to work, they do the famous add/cuts. When this happens, I let my sup know how stupid it is and then I head out on the road. At the end of the day I still get paid. My motto seems to be anymore "If they dont care then why should I" [/QUOTE]
