Pretty sure with edd this is non existent anymore.
It is for me.
I was told after we launched EDD/PAS in my center, my boss told me how much less time I had each day. "That's my set up time." I said. "You no longer need to set up, just follow EDD."
That works with well-defined business areas, but not so well on rural routes.
Except the route I am covering now. The guy that does the route and helped set up EDD did a brilliant job of it. I am usually 95% on trace. I rarely touch a package until I am grabbing it to deliver. Fell off a shelf?? I leave it. Pull up and fine sort?? Nope. I go by the board and what it tells me. I get burned every now and then, get to a stop and the package is not there, but that does not happen very often and not often enough to justify changing. I do not run or race or any of that and am typically .5-1.1 under.
I now shut down every day at 1400 for lunch and coffee. Sit for an hour, enjoy the company of the hot barista and unwind.
I am really liking the route I am on now. I like it almost more than the route I covered for 4 years before I went on comp. That route had rurals that defied a smart EDD. Running it all depended on who had what. No way to do a good EDD for that. Doing that route well means going in back and setting up what was there, more than 8 stops in advance.
