[QUOTE="Marcell, post: 1769772, member: 59572"] Okay I've got a question for everyone. what is the optimum ideal situation? What I mean is the drivers will have different issues and sometimes solutions don't sync. So what are the ideal parameters concerning time all drivers should be in the bldg? When a truck is truly over dispatched, the driver did his part, not dragging and taking extra break time, not running like a stallion, running the load as fast as possible while utilizing all safety tips and accurate pkg pu and delv. If he is over dispatched do we send another drv from adj area to help with stops or to get that driver's pu pkgs and leave him to finish alone? At peak even the very poor or very dangerous areas blow up with deliveries in residential areas. What's the solution? I have had drv out as late as 11pm at peak. Never an incident yet but I'm not answering my door at that hour with a smile on my face. When considering last year we bulked up on seasonal drivers that we didn't need and are still dealing with labor issues over that so that's no good. What parameters need to be established to ensure driver safety both from injury or crime but still delv all the packages that arive in the center for delv that day? That is the exact question I guess. [/QUOTE]
