[QUOTE="Catatonic, post: 770601, member: 7966"] I guess you conveniently overlooked the statement in my post I made to this point - "As an aside, he made more bonus on some routes than others." I understand that the same person running one route will run a different Over/Underallowed than he/she will on another. Work Allowances are by design are "only accurate to within +/- 5% on 95% of the routes and for only 95% of the time". I was taught that 30 years ago and it had been around 30 years before that. No system is perfect and certainly not perfectly fair. I believe there is a process in place for drivers to bid on routes. If the allowances are unrealistically tight, then UPS will not realize the benefits of a bonus system. A bonus system where no drivers are able to make bonus is not a bonus center. Not wanting to be crass here but it seems that one can make a natural conclusion that the people who are so against Bonus are against it because they cannot make bonus and don't want others to gain from a system from which they never get any benefits. That's understandable but not commendable. I guess baseball players on the bench make pithy remarks about the everyday players who get more hits, more RBIs and more home runs and consequently better contracts with more money. [/QUOTE]
