[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 1183853, member: 4653"] All that being said, why don't you just leave all the routes alone? In the days when your route was your route (remember those days) everything worked just fine and everything ran smoothly. So what if driver A is a little heavier than driver B? The total man hours it takes to deliver A and B is not going to change no matter how you split the work up and everybody earns the same wage so why the big to-do to get both drivers at 9 hours instead of leaving it alone and one driver work 8.5 and the other work 9.5? You're still paying 18 hours in labor each way. Instead, now your causing all these problems and pissing away production profits with these add/cuts. Consistent costly add/cut mistakes like 1) them not being done at all by the pre-load and the drivers having to break trace to meet and switch the work, 2) the 1 or 2 packages the pre-loader can't find (in his own load for the good lord's sake. if he can't find his own packages how am i supposed to find them, lol) creating the scenario where two different UPS drivers are delivering to houses that are 100 yards apart, 3) an add/cut that contains a school (all the splits seem to have one) forcing the driver to break trace to make it by 5 and certainly not between 2-330, 4) the add/cut is not adjacent to the driver's route and he must drive through 1 or 2 other add/cut areas to get to the add/cut area they gave to him this day. All these problems happen in every center everyday at UPS. Everyday! And you write : "you can't always assign the work in the right dol order". Well, why don't you or somebody make it so you CAN. Fix or design the system so you can put it in the right dol order. Why wasn't it created right off the bat to be able to do that? That's it for now. [/QUOTE]
