[QUOTE="Re-Raise, post: 776642, member: 16501"] I'll use my center this week as an example of how the meeting the SPC numbers trumps common sense. I show up Monday and my route is cut. No surprise there because volume is usually light on Mondays and being Columbus Day many businesses were closed. I ran the combination route and had a pretty light day. A little over 8 hrs with 95 (three towns with rural routes) stops and I ran it scratch. All the drivers had light days. Tuesday they said because our SPC was too light Monday they were running the same number of routes because they got their ass chewed for sending us out too light. I went out on the same combo route with 125 stops and about 100 more pcs. So all you managers like P-man who think this is just a tool, and managers can make adjustments and change the trace and all that other feel good crap don't understand the reality of it. I was the second driver in with 9.8 Tuesday and brought two driver's air with me who were out almost 11 hours. I know we blew businesses and air that day because I talked to the drivers that couldn't make the commits. And why did they do it? Because we didn't make the number the day before...... [/QUOTE]
