Just do you route by the methods like you should be doing everyday. Don't worry about your allowances it's managements problem. Screw their allowances.
They dont, its all built in.I havent used the new diad yet, soon though, and a virtual time study to follow. If there is no one on the car with you how do they know what your doing inside buildings or if and when your using your handcart
They don't, but they like to pretend like they do.I havent used the new diad yet, soon though, and a virtual time study to follow. If there is no one on the car with you how do they know what your doing inside buildings or if and when your using your handcart

I can't speak for how virtual time studies are done today. But I did do time studies in the past, granted it was decades ago. If I had a driver who did what you suggest and walk off dock stops etc I would spend the extra time to disallow all of that. Also, any ambiguity I would take away from the driver. Note, an easy way to know is usually there is always a customer who says, hey John, why are you parking there when you normally park around the back and use the dock? etc etc. Or just plain common sense of how the driver performed his day. I would also look at the prior days delivery records to see time between stops etc. It's pretty easy to spot where a driver is trying to do things different on the day of the study. If a driver did the methods and treated it as a normal day and when there was ambiguity I would give the driver the benefit of the doubt.Don't pull into any driveways or parking lots. Walk everything off from the street, even dock stops. Maximize the distance between your package car and delivery point when the stop is completed. Spend extra time in commercial stops looking for sales leads or extra volume.
Just before the VTS your center team will affix a barcode to your handcart. When you get to a stop that you need to use the handcart, you scan the barcode on the handcart, load the pkgs, complete the stop, and then rescan the barcode on the handcart when you get back to the pkg car.
Me either.That never happened for us.
Don't worry they are planning on taking it away as you speak.We gained quite a bit after our VTS. Even though they are their numbers and I don't care, it does make it easier to get an 8 hr day when requested when the numbers are somewhere in the ball park.
That never happened for us.
