[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 565126, member: 9789"] Sorry bu your analysis is way to simple.... The system is imperfect and will never be perfect. Each route or area is different from the next. No two routes are exactly alike. This means that though one driver has a 9 hour planned day, his planned day is different from another driver's planned day. Whether it is stops, type of stops, number of packages, miles driven, density, city or country.... each route is different and cannot be compared by time allotted to complete the job. Then to make matters more complicated for dispatch purposes, you have the driver's make-up to factor into the equation. (Experience - temperament - skill set - etc , etc.) Therefore - one driver cannot look at another driver and compare the workload to his/her own situation. Some drivers may feel their 9 hour load is harder than your 10 hour load! They may have a million ways to justify their thinking. All your dispatch team can do is look at each driver and assign work to that driver based on what that driver can handle within the guidelines and goals that have been established for the driver, group of drivers and overall center.
