[QUOTE="soberups, post: 887157, member: 14668"] We collapsed from 3 centers to 2 and my area was merged with a center that it had been completely seperate from before. The trace was drawn to account for a ZIP code boundary that "separated" loops from 2 different centers that are now combined. The trace was drawn to facilitate the on-route pickups for a delivery route that was dispatched every day for 25+ years but has now been permanently eliminated and parceled out among several other routes, mine being one of them. Instead of starting this loop at its beginning point in the AM, I am starting this loop in the middle point at 2:00 or 3:00 PM and scrambling around to cover the on route pickups that are distributed at various points along the route while also making service on the committed packages that are also distributed at various points along the route. Expecting me to run the trace as it was originally written under [I]these[/I] conditions would be asinine. I would run out of fuel and hours at 10:00 at night with business and committed stops still left to do. Creating even [I]more[/I] hoops for me to jump through with a "My Choice" service is only going to make the situation worse if the other parameters (loop detail, dispatch etc.) remain unchanged. I find it amazing that you, a well educated and intelligent (no sarcasm intended) IE person, would make the claim that "collapsing from two centers to one is not a reason for needing to reloop." With all due respect, it is probably the most uninformed thing you have ever posted here. [/QUOTE]
