Anyone know how a driver's estimated work day plan is formulated? (over/under "plan")

[QUOTE="DS, post: 1208541, member: 556"] [b]Re: Anyone know how a driver's estimated work day plan is formulated? (over/under "pl[/b] Firstly,Dracula is right on with his point about getting too comfortable. You tend to become complacent over time if you do the same area every day. I've been in the same run 23 years and I took out a fire hydrant last year because I forgot to check my right mirror and my tailswing took off my back bumper. As far as I know,there are several things that affect your planned day. The one big one that has no variables is your mileage.It takes time to get from one place to another. Obtaining a signature gets you an allowance,I believe it's 30 seconds.Recording overweights,1 minute, Leave building time.Make it as late as possible without lying.Return to building as early as possible. Pickup allowance increases dramatically if you pick up lots of packages . Ask...no,[U]Tell[/U] your Sup to start posting the operations report.This document is the one they view every morning to assess you previous days performance. I believe the contract states they must post it every morning, it's like that here. The weight of packages is not considered. [/QUOTE]
