[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 1119314, member: 12570"] 10 fewer stops and 5 fewer miles means that he ran the route in a more efficient manner than Driver 1---if it weren't for the 1645 pickup Driver 2 would have most certainly been underallowed. If Driver 2 is able to make the pickups without having to break off and the shippers are OK with his pickup times then he needs to get with the PDS/OMS and get those pickup times changed. You should always try to deliver grounds with airs---to do otherwise, especially if there is time to do so, would be padding stops. If there is only time to deliver air then that is your priority and any stops that you have to go back to would be duplicate stops. I do agree that having more stops and miles adds to your dispatch and may change an overallowed day to an underallowed one; however, if you have to pad stops and miles in order to be underallowed, are you really working in the most efficient manner? There is a direct relationship between efficiency and being over/underallowed. In the example above Driver 2 is clearly the more efficient of the two. [/QUOTE]
