[QUOTE="kingOFchester, post: 1119456, member: 11246"] And that was my point to which you added your sarcastic "Simple" comment. So now you acknowledge that is really isn't as simple as you want to make it. The scenario I describe above is a common phenomenon in my center. The senior bid drivers that have been around the block are not ripping and running to show good numbers. They are not setting up their truck to be more efficient. They aren't pushing the 10:30 commit time to get as much work done during airs. They are running the route the way they have for years and what works for them. They do not give time in the AM to the company. They have been around long enough to know that the faster you are the more work you will get and what you do will never be good enough. The cover drivers, trying to make a name for themselves are ripping and running. They are fingering their loads all morning long. They push the 10:30 commit time to the very last minute to get as much air and ground off as humanly possible. A lot of the time they will show as being over allowed when the bid driver usually comes in at scratch or there abouts. As far as changing the pickup times, that would then affect the bid driver who has the times set up for when he is in the area. By admitting that there may be some issues with dispatch and plans then your bubble of goodness may not be so perfect after all. [/QUOTE]
