[QUOTE="8up, post: 1413814, member: 56"] after we started going with DR i found out that if you had a quick shot at obtaining a signature i was getting more planned time at the delivery. the key is like meeting someone working out in the yard when you arrive, beep the horn wave them over as you open the bulkhead door. occasionally i built more time from what you get on a signature without having to go through all the time consuming that you might have to go through to be granted that time. i've made the delivery, got the signature and never stepped out of the vehicle. i had several places where i had this going on and was able to grow that at a few more regular address. one young supervisor recognized what i was doing and said that there was talk that drivers should not be scamming the system this way, his thinking was, work smarter not harder and then he reminded me to sound the horn when arriving at a stop to attract attention, and then i was gaining almost double the amount of signatures. i build up my time plan, while reducing my actual delivery time at each stop while reducing my walk distance. by the time my manager found out about it he smiled and told me i was doing a good job. i wasn't scratch but i was down 4 tenths, and hundreds of steps less per day getting in and out of that old truck. but if you can't get the signature faster than you can than if you just did the DR, you end up loosing time with that method.
