[QUOTE="InTheRed, post: 522087, member: 4489"] I think what you see about taking out the 'easiest' route is because, well, it's easier. The most senior driver usually has the easiest dispatch because he/she is older and usually has less work, so it is less stops to break apart and spread around. The other alternative is to break out a route with more stops and spread it around and then basically re-dispatch an entire loop. Then, the A driver would need to take the most work to even out the dispatch. I've seen this happen before (the A route stays in, the D, E, or X route comes out) and usually the most senior guy (A route) will take the day, because his/her dispatch will greatly inflate. All-in-all, the same amount of stops will be in the loop. It's going to get done one way or another, right? In your situation, does the most senior driver wish to work? Would the most senior driver stay with 40 stops from a neighboring route? Would that driver be able to get the job done? Would another driver be able to get that same job done? [/QUOTE]
