[QUOTE="Steelheader, post: 176620, member: 1814"] I'm in a bonus center. Funny how things changed. I fell through a porch and blew out about 8 discs in my back (including now having a permanent disibility in my back). I bid the route I had when I went out on long term L&I. Route was in a P7, running 70 business stops and about 17 pickups (it's a remote business route). Was considered a 9 hour day. When I bid it, was put up as 100 stops, in a P1 with a TP60 and same pickups. Came back and finally got a chance to run it. I was not running 100 stops. But was running 120 stops, about 20 pickups and doing it in about 10 hours. Was coming back about a 8.1 day. LOL. Mind you, I was doing 120 stops and about 320 pieces (all heavy and only ONE dock, rest were handtruck deliveries of bulk) and picking up over 400 (and usually 500 pieces) a day (only 150 of those 500 were in pup, rest I personally loaded into my P1). Previous driver didn't even do that many at Xmas. They did do new time studies after the fact. I did gain some time back, but I only have seen bonus during Xmas when I was delivery about 150 stops and picking up over 1,000 pieces (yup, I was picking up over 1,000 packages between pup and package car). Even then, I was only getting maybe 10 minutes bonus, if that. We have a few that still bonus, but few and far between. Mostly the guys doing no bulk (remote resi routes) with close deliveries.
